Emma Callanan, Class of 2025

Emma is a freshman currently living on campus!

Q: What is a core food memory for you? 

E: When I was volunteering at a field I met a lot of immigrants from Mexico. I could speak some Spanish but not the other dialect they were using which was native to their area back in Mexico. I couldn’t communicate with them and felt like I shouldn’t be there. After working in the fields for a few hours, we went to the mobile home complex where they lived and there were dozens of watermelons on the tables. All of us were so excited to eat cold watermelon after the long hot day in the fields. We went absolutely ham on those melons. We played a lot of games like who could eat the most melon and who could eat the fastest. It was so funny to watch. After we ate a bunch of the field workers’ kids came up and wanted to play. They were so cute and so excited about the watermelon. We played with them until it got dark out. I don’t even like watermelon that much but I love the memories associated with it.

What foods do you usually eat at home that you can’t get on campus? How are these important to you and/or the area you’re from?

E: At home we make this absolutely STELLAR Spanish rice. I miss it at school because it helped me get through my eating disorder. It was a big comfort food for me, something reliable for days when it was challenging to eat.

Do you have a recipe or cooking tip that you would mind sharing with us?

A recipe for the BEST cookies, as per Emma’s instruction

Ingredients:

-1/2 white sugar

-1c butter

– 2 eggs

-1.5 c flour

Directions:

Cream butter and sugars. Then mix in eggs one at a time. Add in dry ingredients a cup at a time (or throw them all in that’s what I do haha). Mix in chocolate chips and make sure to sneak a bite or two of cookie dough. Form into 12-14 BIG blobs of dough (about 4TBSP of dough) and arrange on 2 pans (6 per pan). Bake at 410 degrees for 9-12 minutes. Let cool and enjoy!

  21. Having read this I believed it was very informative.
    I appreciate you spending some time and energy to put
    this content together. I once again find myself spending way too much time both
    reading and commenting. But so what, it was still worth it!

  36. Have you ever considered about adding a little bit more than just your articles?
    I mean, what you say is fundamental and everything.
    However just imagine if you added some great images or videos to give
    your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with pics
    and video clips, this blog could certainly be one of the best in its niche.

    Wonderful blog!

  48. Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it
    to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear and screamed.
    There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had
    to tell someone!
