Snippets Of The Weekend

Spring Fair. Student Art Show curated by my Curatorial Studies class. After much stress, to-ing and fro-ing on the email, manual labour moving tables, chairs and lockers, we managed to make the space look presentable and hung the works in a semblence of theme and colour. The Show did go on. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It looked pretty good actually. And surprisingly, people braved the horrendous weather to come visit.

The Sand Sculptor in action, but we didn't wait to see the end result because we left for a fish and chips pub lunch. And never came back to the Spring Fair... blame it on the rain of course.

On a separate note, I baked on Sunday, after the Spring Fair. Made sardine puffs. They go very well with a nice cup of Earl Grey.

And finally Monday night, the inauspicious day for an auspicious event. 9-11 was chosen for the night of the Scholarship Awards. I finally received my cheque for $500 and a certificate. Promptly spent $46 of that money on steak dinners with 4 friends. It was a great deal, $7 steak (pub grub) with coffee/tea. This was the extremely yummy sticky date pudding with vanilla ice-cream ($6). We thought we were full so we shared 1 portion. And had to go back and get another. A very sweet way to end a great night.
