I'm going to be ÜBER busy today and tomorrow and won't be able to share another delicious recipe with you until Sunday night or Mac Monday. I am at an orientation/training session for a volunteer program I joined all day long. It's a great organization that just celebrated it's 20th anniversary, "The Best Buddies Program." Best buddies are young volunteers that are assigned to a family of a transplant patient on the Pediatric Bone and Marrow Transplant Unit at Duke Hospital. You're able to work one-on-one with the family and child to provide emotional support, time for the parents to be out of the hospital (there has to be a parent with the children 24/7), and a great excuse to get to know and have lots fun with some pretty amazing kids.
Afterwards, I am off to Charlotte to meet up with A and visit one of our soccer teammates from college. We are going to enjoy a little thing called "Oktoberfest." Okay, it's not the real thing and it's not exactly German, but it's a great excuse to try new beers, reminisce, and celebrate with old and new friends!
I'll try and keep track of some of my favorites to share with you!
xoxo
