Why You Should Eat At Cookout
Amanda Jayne Sankey

If you live in Heaven, aka the South, you know what Cookout is. If you know what Cookout is, you have eaten there. If you have eaten there, you will continue to eat at Cookout.

Reason number one that Cookout is the food of the Gods is plain and simple. Milkshakes. Forty plus milkshakes, to be precise. Each milkshake is made with extra love and extra yum. Seriously. The milkshakes are made with fresh ingredients. If you order a watermelon milkshake (the best one), it is made with real, fresh, delicious watermelon. Um, yum.

The Cookout tray is a close second to the milkshakes. One entree, two sides, and a drink all for five dollars? Yes, please. Hot dog! Literally. Two, actually. With your choice of toppings.

Cheesecake. Why is it on the menu? I don't know. But it is, and it's delicious.

Burgers. Amazing, delicious, real cheddar cheese (not that fake American nastiness). Bacon? You can get that. Grilled onions? You can get that. Pretty much any sauce you would put on a burger? You can get that.

Corndogs, quesadillas, chicken wrap, onion rings, hushpuppies, and about a million different kind of fries all come as sides. Freaking yes.

Having sparkling customer service is "My pleasure!" to enjoy every time I go in. The tables are clean, the floors are swept, and the people are nice.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go work at Cookout. I mean eat.

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.
