By noon I was about half-way done with the insanity, and noticed there wasn't a seat unoccupied. Well, by 1:00 I noticed about thirty individuals taking tests standing in the aisles. As my test was open Internal Revenue Code, that would not have been an option. Truly I felt blessed to be a morning person today. I had a test yesterday as well, meaning that so far this weekend I have put in seven hours in that wonderful building.
Every time I open our freezer I see a jar of coconut and I am tempted to use it in some creative way. Today I decided to make fried ice cream with it, but since tomorrow is Fast Sunday, I can't yet. Susie and I always start fasting after lunch on Saturday; that we we sleep through the worst of it and can eat the second we get home from church. So the fried ice cream will have to wait. But I did scoop the ice cream into spheres and place them back in the freezer in tupperwares, so all I have to do tomorrow is crush up cornflakes, boil the sauce, and dip the ice cream in hot oil.
Fried ice cream is one of my favorite desserts, so I really hope this try-at-home experiment works out.
In case I forget later, graduation is April 21 and 22. Anyone is invited (but not obligated) to attend, and while staying in Provo, guests of my convocations may stay at Casa Chadwick free of charge.

I am so glad that I am a morning person. Even though it's been a long week and today was Saturday, I got up and studied for my test, and dutifully took it at 10:00 when the testing center opened. I had a four hour time limit and technically didn't need to take it until 12 at the latest, but I felt ready and off I went, dragging my feet all the way there.
