I'm at the second to last season of my show: The Good Wife on Amazon Prime.

Everyone knows how that feels.

You finally found a show to watch on Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu and countless others and there's actually five to six seasons or better yet you found one with seven! How lucky are you? You've become enraptured in this show, their emotions are your emotions. Your favorite character died? No, not them! Anyone but them. Why would the producers do this to you? Don't they know that you have so much invested in their wellbeing? Obviously they're doing this to punish you, they don't really care about your feelings. You're not important to them, they're selfish becuase what else could they be if they killed off your favorite character?

You're on season six now, episode thirteen of twenty-two and you slow your roll. You don't want to get to season seven too fast because then what are you going to do with your life? You'll end up in a funk. The one you get after you finish watching a show and now you don't know what to do with the extra time you have. You could do some homework? But nah, you have plenty of time for that. You could find a hobby one that you have to do outside and not sitting on your couch in front of your tv? Ew, only weirdos like doing things outside, I'm more of a couch potato. Instead you just sit around and picture your life, how it would be if you hadn't watched that last episode. You'd still have meaning to your life, a purpose. You wouldn't be floating, wandering aimlessly looking for the next great show to binge watch with at least five seasons.

You flip through the options on Netflix, then Amazon Prime, Hulu, Showtime and HBO. Still nothing catches your attention. You sigh and just as you're about to turn off the tv and pick up a book something catches your eye.

Is that? No, it couldn't be.

Yes, it's a show that looks interesting and it has six seasons.

Suits, please don't disappoint me.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.

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.
