Interns do Christmas

Q: What do dietitians enjoy best?
A: FOOD!

It's difficult to remember the holidays are upon us with our busy schedules and above 50 degree weather. The interns decided to have a Christmas potluck on Thursday as an excuse to cook, get together, and celebrate. Dana, Shelly, and Rebekah hosted the event at their apartment, adorned with lights, "leftover" decorations from Dana's mother, Angela (the infamous Christmas angel), and the ever-so-creepy Christmas Trolls.

It was the perfect way to end the first semester! WE MADE IT! One semester down. I headed back to Cincinnati for 2 whole weeks while Jo is finishing her staff relief week and will make it back to Kentucky Christmas morning.

MENU
Dana: Chicken salad on crostini and gluten free chocolate torte
Shelly: Homemade sushi (yes, she is impressive!)
Rebekah: Shortbread cookies with a white chocolate/Andes peppermint icing
Julie: Carrot, Raisin, Pineapple slaw
Jo: Filo dough cups with brie and jam
Karen: Paula Dean cake (pumpkin, cake, pecans, and BUTTER BUTTER BUTTER)
Krista: Biscuits with blue cheese

We had a wonderful time sitting around the family room exchanging stories, talking about work, and of course talking about our latest favorite recipe. Yes, we always end up back on the topic of food. At some point of the night, each intern laughed so hard they cried. I had not done that in tooo long! Jo and I also managed to take a Christmas photo... if we were going to send out a Christmas card - this would be it!
