Hello all -
So, this post is going to seem really lame because it doesn't have a picture. But, I wanted to tell you all the exciting adventures we had this morning in our Holden kitchen!
The power went out, for about 3 hours. This was really awesome, because we all got to put on really cool head lamps (it gets pitch black in the kitchen without any light), and I even got to go down into the basement cellars and get stuff. It was awesome!
Today was what we call "Hunger Awareness Day", where for lunch all we serve is rice. Thankfully it was easy enough - we prepped nine hotel pans and shoved them in the oven. The ovens we have are big enough that they'll stay hot for at least a day. If it would have been a more complicated meal, then we probably would have had a problem - because our warmer runs on electricity, among other kitchen essentials.
All in all, an exciting day. My housemate, Mike, took a picture of me working by head lamp. I'll post it on Facebook soon, I promise.
Oh! And tonight, we had Holden Evening Prayer, with 330 people, with Marty Haugen at the piano. Marty Haugen is pretty much revered in the Lutheran world, and we're all really excited to have him here! Also today, Professor David Behling (my Shakespeare professor in college!) and his wife and son arrived. They're here for three weeks, so it'll be good to catch up with him as well!
Hope this finds all my readers well -
From the Village,
Dean
