So I just checked and 77.78% of my entries have been about food. I actually expected that number to be higher and I am a little disappointed. Thankfully, once I post this, that number will skyrocket to an even 80% (fun mental math puzzle if you’re interested: figure out what number blog post this is). To get that number up though, it seems I will have to mention a fun food experience somewhere soon.

This plan also works well for me because, besides working and decorating my new room (almost done… probably… who knows… pinterest may inspire me yet again) this week has been a little dull. Unlike normal weeks at Midd, when people are always distracting me from work with fun ideas like “come cliff jumping with me at the quarry” or “do you want to go to Bristol and get ice cream”, this week has been slim on fun adventures that I can share with the blog-o-sphere. That is because most of my friends are either still enjoying their summer vacations or are training to be Middview (freshman orientation) leaders. This training entails going to a camp called Common Ground and basically having a week to play games, sleep outside, and eat delicious local food. I’m not jealous, it’s fine, it sounds boring anyways.

To convince myself of this fact (and incorporate a fun food outing into my post) I actually got my family to come spend labor day in VT and have dinner with me tonight. We are meeting in Brandon, a town about 20 minutes from Middlebury, to go to one of our favorite restaurants, Cafe Provence. Middlebury actually has a ton of amazing restaurants to choose from but it’s also neat check out the surrounding area for great finds like Cafe Provence. I have been there before so I know it will be delicious but maybe next week I will update you all on exactly what I chose (and get my percentage up to 82%)!
