17 Thanksgiving Foods You Can’t Turn Down This Break

Seriously, Thanksgiving food is my absolute favorite, and I can never say no to seconds. Especially when you are all snuggled up on the couch watching a re-run of the Macy's parade because you didn't wake up early enough to watch it the first time.

Turkey 

I love turkey. Period. But on Thanksgiving it's like I can never get enough!

Dressing

OMG don't even get me started - I can eat my body weight in my Nana's dressing - or stuffing as some people call it. Anyone else?!

Now the amazing combo - Turkey AND Dressing (stuffing, whatever you want to call it)

I swear if this was acceptable to eat year 'round I would! God bless the person who created this duo.

Cranberry Sauce

This took me years to like, but I did not know what I was missing out on not eating this - sour but sweet. It doesn't look very appealing but looks can be deceiving, right? Slap this on some turkey and dressing, and you are set to go.

Honey Ham

I wouldn't say this is always a MUST have but you know why not? A little ham and a little turkey never hurt nobody.

Mashed Potatoes and Gravy

Definitely a year around food but deserves a spot on this list! Might as well add a little of that gravy to your dressing while you're at it!

Sister Shubert Rolls

Come on, you can't deny it - you eat so many rolls you have to unbutton your pants afterwards.

Or any kind of rolls/bread for that matter 

My statement still stands from before... so. much. bread.

Mac and Cheese

You know, that kind with the extra cheese - yummmm

Green Bean Casserole

Not to brag but this is my speciality, so I can have this whenever I want and will never say no to making or eating it.

Hash-brown casserole

All the casseroles

Casseroles are just easy to make and easy to take to those family Thanksgivings, never a bad choice.

Cornbread

I love cornbread - better than biscuits. Plus you know us southerners can't turn down a slice of cornbread.

Now for the desserts - chocolate pie

Heart eyes, that's all I gotta say.

Pumpkin pie 

Basic white girl status - yes but it's so good you can't turn it down.

Pecan Pie

Yet another pie, but so so good especially warm with whipped cream.

Oreo Balls 

These are another thing that are too good to be turned down and so fun to make.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
