PDAY in pictures!

Hey everyone!

It was SUCH an exciting weekend here at SMC! Friday night was the MLK talent show, which was so much better than I had ever expected...we even had our very own blogger Gabbi perform in it..twice! One of her videos is here, and the winner's video here. AND, at the talent show I won my very first raffle prize ever!! It was a great way to start off the weekend :)

We all woke up at 8am on Saturday to start the day early. Here are some pictures from the day!...


Up bright and early!

Sloane!

Hi everyone!

I'm very excited to say that I've finally made my way to Sloane (on north campus) for dinner! For those who don't know, Sloane is a building on north campus that is used mostly for art classes, but there is also another "dining hall"...which isn't really like a dining hall at all. "Knights at the Round Table" (which everyone just calls Sloane) is another dining option on campus...but it's restaurant style!

It's open Monday-Thursday from 5-6:30pm, and you HAVE to make a reservation! When we called to make a reservation at 2pm (when they first start taking reservations) the phone was busy four times before we could get through...it gets booked up very quickly! When you get there, you're swiped in with your Knightcard, seated at a table, order from the "menu," and the food it brought out to you. The best part though is that it's all included in your meal plan! No paying, and awesome food in a restaurant-like setting...SO cool!

When you're seated, you can go get whatever drink you want..anything from soda to milk or orange juice...and they bring out dinner rolls and butter. You're given a menu/order slip to write down what you would like from the menu...everyone gets to choose 1 appetizer, 1 entree, and 1 dessert!

Here are some pictures of what we ordered, and everything was so good!!

Really good dinner rolls!

My appetizer- spinach salad with strawberries
and raspberry vinaigrette dressing

Galya eating her appetizer- tortilla chips and queso

Galya with her chicken parm, which Clare got too!

My (vegan!) seitan and cooked spinach. So good!

Sorbet with raspberries...yum!

Me!

Clare, Galya, and me...happy and full after an awesome dinner!



Marci also blogged about going to Knights at the Round Table here & pictures here!
