The Butter Bowl

We used to have butter, packaged nicely and ready to go. Used to. Now, things are different. Now our butter is served in a bowl so as to make sure no one takes more butter than you’re supposed to (as in: as much butter as is supposed to go on your toast). Having butter served in a bowl, however, usually turns into some sort of mess, because other users usually don’t care about making sure their butter knives are clean etc., though quite honestly, I find that yuck! Today, however, was a good day. Because I actually found the butter bowl clean and untampered with. I was so delighted, that I promptly had to take a photo of a beautifully clean butter bowl.

Sunday School, Part 2

Like I told you the other day: Holidays always come with one little downer – extra work, which this semester usually means school on Sunday for me, or what others may call Sunday School. But hey, I don’t want to get too fussy about this, because overall I get to have another day to sleep in that way, except, of course, that recently we haven’t been able to sleep in anyway, because of all the construction noise. So, it doesn’t make that much of a difference anyway, does it, to have school on a Sunday morning …?

Inspire Me: ColorsConspiracy

Recently, I discovered a website that has some awesome, awesome inspiration going. ColorsConspiracy a bilingual site with articles posted in both French and English. And it features traditionally scrapped paper layouts. But that’s all the tradition you will get there, because generally speaking, the pages they feature are fun and fresh, artsy, and usually just simply gorgeous. If you need more convincing, why don’t you hop on over there to check the site out for yourself?

May Day

May 1st is always a great day to look forward to. After all, it’s one of the big holidays in this nation, which also means that we usually get to have a couple of days off. Of course, that also means we have to work at little harder instead at other times, more particularly on the weekend before or after the holiday. But then you get to enjoy a nice couple of quiet days. And quiet is always good on a campus that is otherwise fairly overpopulated. So, I’m off to celebrate my May Day!
