So, as you may already know, I enjoy school, so I am in Honors Biology at the current time. Well, that's mostly because I am infatuated with science, but that is besides the point.

So, I spent this past weekend (Nov. 8 - 10th) trying to be a good person, which involved me volunteering at the Navajo Rug Show at the Snow Park Lodge in Deer Valley. Personally, I have a very strong connection to this event. I mean, I've been going every year since I was in the first grade, and I have helped support one of the Navajo Elders throughout the years.

I have a bit of an apology to make. I've been lazy about posting again, but I really want to do a quick Halloween post. Mostly because I would hate myself if I forgot to pay due homage to All Hallow's Eve.
Here's my recipe for a perfect Halloween:
