College Evening Routines

Thursdays were my favorite day of the week my sophomore year of college. Classes were over by 2 PM, I'd work a few hours at the campus gym and then I grabbed my swim bag and giant parka, drove over to the Notre Dame aquatic center and dedicated a few hours every week to getting in a few laps. After swimming a few miles, I'd quickly change out of my swim suit, immediately get back into my sweats, and spend another half hour or so watching the Notre Dame girls diving team practice. Armstand and reverse dives are my favorite. I'd run back to my car because it's actually freezing outside, make a pit stop at the student center to grab a quick dinner and head back to my dorm.

Raspberry Rose Pots de Creme

As a college student with little to no cooking skills, I came home one winter break and binge watched a ton of Giada De Laurentiis. A few episodes in, I decided it was time it get in the kitchen. My very first recipe - Raspberry Rose Pots de Creme. You can find it in her We'll Always have Paris lunch episode. For a first timer making a souffle, I cannot believe it turned out as well as it did. It tasted like absolute heaven.
