Restaurant Review: Smashburger
Smashburger

Smash Burger is a burger joint located on Rea Rd in Blakeney, NC. Smash Burger is known for their fresh, juicy, delicious burger patties with a unique menu of toppings. I went to Smash Burger on Sunday and it was so busy!

Smash Burger is known for its smashed patties which absorb all the juices needed to maintain the perfect patty. “We all know that magic happens when meat and heat collide, but, forget everything you thought you knew about grilling a burger. Smashing is what makes ours so astonishingly flavorful.” That quote is seen on several different areas throughout their website. They also have several words that are placed on plaques throughout the restaurant labeled: ENJOY, INDULGE, SAVOR. The restaurants overall look was very classy for a burger joint. The color scheme is very well done. Below is a picture of the restaurant I went to.

Their menu is very detailed with several different options of “spicing” your burger up with new and fun ingredients. They have fun names for their burgers and many different toppings. They have all their burgers on the menu labeled like the picture below. They almost make the menu interactive. Each ingredient is laid out almost as if it is on the burger.

I decided to try the Bacon, BBQ, Cheeseburger. This was a burger with BBQ sauce, slices of bacon, melted cheese, and the infamous smashed patty. I also ordered their smash fries which are similar to truffle fries. They are seasoned oily fries basically. Below is a picture of my burger and fries.

Overall I would rate this restaurant a 4.5 out of 5. The burger was AMAZING and so were the fries. I will be back for sure!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
