Week 5

Another week with OU Housing and Food! I had off on Monday for Labor Day so I started the week on Tuesday in Walker Tower. We had two days until our next event, the Sustainable Food Terms Info Fair. Dot wanted me to make the ingredient tags for all the recipes she was using at the event. There was going to be a lot of food. Sweet Potato Hummus, Vegan GF Fruit Dumplings, Vegan Three Layer Dip, GF flax Garlic Flat Bread and a Fusion Bowl which included Quinoa, Crispy Roasted Lentils, Cucumber Sprout Kimchee, and Roasted Butternut Squash.

Besides putting together the ingredient tags, I was in charge of putting together a sheet of paper with the recipes for each food item. I had fun organizing and designing the handout even if it took me a long time to put together. I finally finished it on Wednesday and spent the rest of the day helping to load the wagon and make sure everything else was ready for the event. Dot, Cheyanne, and I met up early the next morning at the Cate Rock Garden to start setting up. The event didn't go quite as we had planned, mainly because some of our recipes weren't made and we were missing several things for our booths. We eventually got things set up and had several people stop by to try our food and learn about sustainable food terms. It was great having a Adrian as our DJ, it helped attract more students to our event and made it fun! The info fair went from 10:30 to 2pm and the rest of the day we spent tearing down.
