Top 5 Things I'm Thankful For

So, this past week I was reminded to think about all of the things I was thankful for. Well, some obvious ones came to mind, but some of them didn't come to me until Thanksgiving was already halfway over. So, here are the five things, in no particular order, I was most thankful for during my Thanksgiving Break.

1. Family

Family is a really big thing that I was thankful for this past week. Even though they sometimes get under my skin, I still love them and Thanksgiving wouldn't be complete without them. (sidenote: My dad always seems to be on the other side of the camera.)

2. Friends

I love my friends to death and I'm so thankful for them. I know they would be there for me through anything. Definitely something to be thankful for in my book. Special shoutout to all of my friends that are not in this picture that I have gotten closer with this year.

3. Netflix

Yes. Netflix. While I love spending time with the family, I also like taking time for myself and watching a little Netflix. (In particular, all of the Thanksgiving Friends episodes. Just look at Chandler Bing dancing on top of that 'E'! Priceless.)

4. Cool Whip

I LOVE Cool Whip, and I am very thankful for it when it comes to my pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving time. The amount of Cool Whip in the picture above is just right. I need much more on my pie than just a dollop!

5. Books

I started reading again over Thanksgiving Break, and in adition to Netflix, it is a great way to get away from reality and stress. If you are dying to know which book I started reading, it's The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.

While I am thankful for a lot more things year around, these are the five that were most prominent during my break. What were you most thankful for this year? Comment below and let me know!

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.
