Volunteer...
Last night I went to what I thought was a dessert reception for volunteers at my university. It turned out to be an award/recognition ceremony and reception, sponsored by the Student Life department, for about 30 volunteers at my university. I was a bit surprised to have been nominated, but honoured at the same time. The best part I'll admit, which came after the speeches, photos, etc., was the dessert reception. There were white and dark chocolate fountains, individual creme brulee, a torte, old-style chocolate truffles, bite size peanut butter and chocolate cheese cake squares, and cream puffs. It was all amazingly good, and I was on a bit of a sugar high as I ate way too much dessert!
