******* College caters to connosieus of both overpriced education as well as overpriced food. Fortunutely what takes place
inside the classroom and inside the oven is of a generally good quality.
Take, for instance, the cafe's chocolate mocha cake (featured on Thursdays), which rings in at a whopping $3.75 for a slice so meager that even two small japanese women would have trouble splitting it. Perhaps we're charged extra for the strawberry that accompanies it in its cube-shaped plastic chamber? In any case, when the fork find its way past the light coffee-flavored frosting and delves into the dark and bouncy devils food cake, you realize you may not have been led astray. The lightness and softness of the texture is impressively good. Silky, delicated and very satisfyling. Soooooo light and airy that it would definitely benefit from a larger helping.
A excellent choice if you have some extra change to spend (that you really shouldn't be spending on dessert) after a fully expensed departmental meal where your lunch tasted like cardboard.

What goes up must come back to work. :-(
Yep, that's me and my boyfriend swaying 700 ft high with our heads in the clouds. Lovely as that was, I am now back down to earth and securely seated at my desk writing conference schedules and speakers profiles and all the content writing reality has to offer. I'm a bit surprised at how easy it was to transition back to work. But it's true. I guess as much as I bitch about my lame job, it's pretty palatable, not great, not bad. Just "fine." Like going to dinner at Marie Calendars. How's that chicken dinner? Oh, it's fine . . .
This complacency makes me nervous though. The last thing I want to do is wake up 5 years from now and still be eating the same chicken dinner at Marie Calendars, when I could be eating steak at Spago. Why am I always thinking in terms of food? I should not write posts when I'm hungry.
