Do you have what it takes to become the next Microwave Chef?  Well with our easy Microwave Food Handbook, any one can be an expert chef!  Featured above are two of Western Runs very own Microwave Chefs, Amber and Kiara who showcased their skills earlier this evening for all of us in the lobby!  Chef Amber made delicious rice crispy treats that were definitely a crowd pleaser!  But Kiara went for something a little different -  lasagna.  Yes!  She made lasagna in the microwave and boy was it good!  And it was so easy!  So are you tired of the same old cup of noodles and popcorn for dinner?  Pick up one of our microwave survival guides from an RA in Western Run and be on your way to Microwave Chef success!

Above is a picture of a National Eating Disorder Screening Form that I filled out today in the lobby of Rockland.  When I walked in to see what was going on, I found a table full of information on eating disorders as well as representatives from the Wellness Center and Active Minds!  For students who filled out the screening form and showed a score that puts them at risk of an eating disorder, Sarah Evans was on site to talk to them about the possible problem and how to stay healthy and happy with ourselves.  Wellness Wednesday events are so beneficial to every student on campus!

You would think after the crushing loss the Mustangs felt tonight that all of the basketball fans at the university would be feeling a little blue.  But on the contrary, they were pink!  Tonight’s Women’s and Men’s basketball ball games supported Breast Cancer by taking the notion of being pink!  This is a picture of Matt, a resident here at Stevenson and an avid basketball fan.  He was proud to wear pink to support our Mustangs and Breast Cancer!

I know I have written a lot about food recently, but hey, there is a lot going on here at SU that deals with food.  Speaking of deals, here’s one that will satisfy your spicy taste buds.  Starting today, every Wednesday in Rockland will be Wild Wings Wednesday where students can walk away with a dozen fresh buffalo wings for $8 and 2 dozen for $15!  What a steal!  Students can also use their flex, SUone, cash, or credit to complete their transaction.  These wings smell so good when you walk by… it makes them hard to resist!

A New Treat! February 17, 2010

Think of all the ingredients it takes to make a rice crispy treat.  Got it?  Now delete the rice krispies, add in cinnamon toast crunch and sprinkles on top and you have the new amazing cinnamon toast marshmallow treat that I tried tonight in Rockland!  It was very scrumptious.  The marshmallow melted in my mouth while the cinnamon sweetness was hard to resist!  Hopefully they have them tomorrow so I can recommend them to everyone!

Are you ready SU for Fish Fridays in Rockland?  I sure am!  To honor the celebration of Lent, the 40 days each year where we give up our gluten’s until Easter.  Now those of us required to eat fish on Fridays during lent do not have to go far!  Thanks Rockland!

By the way, the picture above is of Fresh Arctic Cod.  It was absolutely delicious!

Barq’s Root Beer has finally found its way to Rockland at Stevenson University!  Today while I was perusing through my drink selections, I noticed that we now have Barq’s Root Beer added to the soda dispenser machine on the right hand side of the drink station of Rockland.  And I was not the only one excited by this discovery!  One of my colleagues took half a cup of this delectable root beer and added a scoop of ice cream to it to make his very own Root Beer float!  It was genius and very exciting!  So if your taste buds are in need of a change, try some Barq’s Root beer with your dinner tonight… or dessert!
