Saltine Creation #1

For those Lent minded, unreligious people like me
who are suffering from not having sweets
or cookies, or brownies, or cake
like this beautiful raspberry mouse cheesecake and rainbow cookie gelato feast
I had on Valentine's Day (my heart dies when I see this picture)

I've got a creation
out of desperation I've turned to Saltines to keep me going
in an attempt to satisfy my insatiable love for desserts
or just because sometimes in college you have to make do with what you have
and there is always a constant supply of saltines by the mostly gross soups
I'm hoping to think up more creations like this one 
coming atcha from the wretched Deece (dining hall that is miserable)
presenting Peanut Butter & Jelly Fro-Yo Sandwiches!
with step by step instructions! (makes 2 servings)

apply jelly generously, for I love jelly
anyone else would probable have their own jar of jelly, while I have to scoop 
it out of a communal jelly tub, ew 

slather on peanut butter to your liking
I am not huge peanut butter fan unless its paired with a ton of jelly
so I used it sparingly

add froyo, or icecream if you are privileged enough to have it
I used chocolate because, although there are 3 dispenser nozzles, 
they were all filled with chocolate and were unlabeled
no vanilla for me, boo
but chocolate was really nommy too
add the icecream/froyo to the peanut butter side of the sandwich

top the froyo with the jelly covered cracker, making sure not to let the froyo escape
and enjoy!
I swear they taste like cookies
but eating at a dining hall
may have altered my taste buds 
either which way its simple and yummy
and keeps me away from the dessert table

you can see the communal peanut butter tub in the background
the tubs with butter and jelly and peanut butter and cream cheese
always have crumbs in them
I think that's what weirds me out

what a perfect midterm snack.

Broken Heel, Broken Heart

Right now I feel,
utterly betrayed
Today on this cold ill-fated December day I decided
to wear my lucky underwear
well, basically they decided to wear me
seeing as they were peeking out of the drawer
bright blue,
with a hot pink gun
the  typical lucky underwear
they gave me hope
I mean, I did have my Native American Studies final today, and it went well
and I got a jelly donut 
I nommed that oozing shining blob inside during my test
I was happy as a plum
seeing as tomorrow I leave the 
dreary PK for home
I get to leave behind my biggest problems
art history flashcards, the dining hall running out of Fro Yo,
reserving the TV to watch CSI NY
etc, typical everyday problems that everyone has
but I guess my lucky underwear ran out of fuel today
because as I was sadly leaving the dining hall
sans brownie a la mode (no fro yo, sadness)
and then it happened:
I fell down the stairs...
not just any fall 
I slipped down each one, and at the bottom
I snapped the heel of my favorite boots off
they were beauties, 
by that I mean suede vintage booties
why do I buy vintage
if it just falls apart?
what a conundrum
so I walked to work
in socks, which conveniently had a hole
the sidewalk was littered with rocks and glass
I scraped my toe
at work about 10 minutes later
I smashed 3 of my fingers with heavy books
and twisted my ankle
the last spurt of luck obviously 
was wasted on that jelly donut, and I'm not quite sure it was worth it
So I'm going to read Precious
and cry my life away
until the 5:40 train tomorrow, because
in the city everything is lucky
and even a bad day is better than the best day in Poughkeepsie.
