I hate fancy food terms. Sure, the word "aioli" may roll off the tongue, but how hard is it to just say "dip"? I mean, how many times have you sat down at a nice restaurant, been handed the menu and then just stared at it for a good 10 minutes just trying to decipher it all? What is beurre blanc? We're in Amurka! Why would they call it beurre blanc anyway? Isn't all butter white? Why would I want my beurre to be anything BUT blanc? And then you just feel stupid when it's finally time to order and you think you know how to pronounce "bouillabaisse" and it comes out more like "boo-ya-bus."
The competition used a slightly different format than Dartmouth is accustomed to, as head coach Sally Batton recently formed the Athletic Equestrian League a new league that is separate from the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association.
And that was it. I knew I had found my life twin, my sister from another mister, my destined boon companion. For those of you who have never heard of the Barefoot Contessa, I am referring, of course, to Ina Garten, former White House nuclear weapons analyst turned gourmet chef extraordinaire. It takes a great woman to work her way up to the White House, but a truly phenomenal one to give it all up for the sake of delicious food.
Flash back to your senior year of high school. You were the president of a bunch of organizations. You had already taken every AP or IB course your school had to offer. And of course, all that work finally paid off when you were accepted to Dartmouth.
Although the Dartmouth men's heavyweight and women's crew teams couldn't secure victories against some of their top Ivy League rivals this weekend, the men's lightweight team had a solid weekend with wins against both Yale University and Columbia University.
Although I am not Jewish, I learned to appreciate American Jewish culture from a young age. It all started when my parents decided to enroll me in the one private school in Dallas where all the Jewish families sent their children. Soon, I was celebrating Passover and Hanukkah with my best friends' families, spending my Saturday mornings at Bar Mitzvah services and opting for Shabbat dinners at the Fines' house on Friday nights instead of at home. Here at Dartmouth, I have managed to get onto the Hillel blitz list and have enjoyed multiple Shabbat dinners at the Chabad rabbi's home.
With wind speeds of up to 20 miles an hour, the men's lightweight crew team's varsity eight suffered a loss to rival Harvard University.
We're not asking that you enroll in Le Cordon Bleu and become a master chef a simple chicken or pasta dish would suffice. The point is, women like to eat tasty food just as much as men do. Unfortunately, the best a Dartmouth woman can hope for is being offered a chicken wing from EBAs (if she's lucky) after fraternity X places a mass order at 2 a.m. only because FoCo is closed, of course.
For a lot of athletes, starting to play a sport meant having to seriously alter and adapt their diets.
Chances are you've faced at least a few of these choices. It's even likelier that there were points at which you diverged from the path and couldn't follow it to the end. Every choice you make at Dartmouth has consequences, and every decision gives people a reason to define you. But many of these choices are superficial, peripheral and largely inapplicable to the "real world." In reality, her penchant for Collis and his fraternity have little to do with the content of their character. Instead of defining ourselves based on a superficial structure (ahem, a timeline), the real challenge is to figure out how these choices fit into a larger context, not just a fleeting Dartmouth reality. After four years, maybe Dartmouth will have completely altered your perspective on life, or maybe it will have just made you more cognizant of who you are but it definitely hasn't created cookie-cutter "types." Then again, what do we know? We're just sophomores.
My New Year's resolution this year was to not talk about food as much. Note to self: Do not make New Year's resolutions swearing off foodie-speak when you are about to spend a term in France, the food capital of the world. That New Year's resolution went out the window faster than you can say "croissant."
While the Big Green men's heavyweight crew team began its spring season with a bang at its regatta on Saturday earning first-place finishes in nearly every category the men's track and field and golf teams had a bit of a slower start, finishing in the middle of the pack in their respective matchups.
There has been plenty of controversy and confusion surrounding the remodeling of the Class of 1953 Commons, and although the news section has comprehensively covered these changes, here at The Mirror we thought it was necessary to do some behind-the-scenes investigation into the changes that will be made to the Dartmouth dining experience this term. These are may it be noted changes that the administration does not necessarily want to divulge at this point. So while you may have thought that there was nothing fishy hidden behind that grossly unrealistic mural depicting a Hanover winter that partitioned the FoCo seating area (talk about 11Weird), we at The Mirror confidently beg to differ.
Fresh off the men's tennis team's 4-3 loss to Loyola Marymount University, Alex de Chatellus '13 sat down with me to talk tennis, pump-up songs and the similarities between choosing a doubles partner and a life companion.
At the women's regatta, the first varsity boat placed fourth with a time of 13:54.5, while the freshmen had the standout performance of the day, earning second out of 23 crews with a time of 13:23.1.
So whether you spend your Thanksgiving back home or at Dartmouth, with family or with friends, never underestimate the power of this really delicious and comforting dish. Or a pair of really stretchy pants, for that matter.
Upon approaching Kate Taylor '13, a Sexpert and a Sociology major with a concentration in women and gender studies, I noticed she had two documents open on her computer. One was a paper for her "Women and the Bible" class entitled, "Potiphar's Wife: Sexual Independence and the Status Quo," a critical essay exploring biblical portrayals of female sexuality as unnatural and demonized due to the androcentric culture of the time. The second was a rough draft of the weekly Sexpert newsletter, "The Hump-Day Gazette," co-founded by Taylor, which comprised of articles with names like, "Girl Meet Gyno," "A Cherry from a Different Fruit Tree" and, my personal favorite, "Strong Woman, Strong Hymen."
While the Dartmouth women's swim team started the season with a victory against Cornell University at home on Friday, the men failed to carry the momentum into their dual meet against Cornell University and Harvard University on Saturday. Both teams' freshmen had outstanding performances as they broke water for the first time in their Dartmouth careers.
So a couple days ago, I was on the elliptical in the back of the gym (you know, where you go when you don't want people to look and judge you for just how low you've set the resistance). About 20 pages into Martha's Living magazine's Fourth of July spectacular issue that I had uh unknowingly and totally accidentally grabbed from the magazine corner, I found this recipe for ice cream cake that I immediately knew I could recreate using DDS food. Now, know that what I'm about to tell you I would not have done if there had actually been people around, but it was during 2As, so I figured I was safe. I pulled out my phone and called my roommate Thea out of a sheer desire just to tell someone what I had just discovered.
