Eve (back) in Ohio: Megaloo comes to town

You heard it right, folks! One of my friends finally made the long trek out here to Ohio to visit. Megan arrived with bells on in the evening on Friday. We had a gay old time! We hit up the Hofbräuhaus for some delicious fried pickles and then gossiped and girl-talked late into the night! Saturday we ventured to Yellow Springs to see some friends and explore at Glen Helen. We went on a hike with Stephanie (see below) to the rare springs, the yellow springs, way down in Glen Helen, oh! It was, possibly, weather-wise, the best day ever in life (once again, see pic below). Saturday night we gathered up the gang and headed to Mr. Lee's for some delicious sushi! Shenanigans ensued as a kid projectile vomited all over the floor right behing my chair, our waitress almost barfed, a man played a saxaphone for us and honked my nose, Jess made me tell the story about when I got water down the wrong pipe and tried not to cough and ended up making an absurd noise (involuntarily), and then the sax player mournfully played Taps for the bachelorette party at the table next to us... Good times were had by all. Then it was off to the Gulch for some good old reminiscing and cheap drinks. On Sunday, I begged Megan not to leave and even threatened to lock her in the basement, but she talked me out of it and made her way back to Illinois. :( But it was a great weekend!

Unfortunately, the other intern, Aurora, isn't really into environmental ed so she quit to get another job. Fortunately, we got a new intern today: Dusty Fox. As you can see, he was already hard at work with the old highlighter. We expect a lot of good things from him.

Today was Amanda's last baking class. :( She brought home a snazzy chocolate cake with blackberry filling. She decorated it herself!! It was scrumptious. I think I may have neglected to say that last week she brought home truffles and chocolate-covered strawberries! They didn't last long enough to get a picture...
