Colors Meeting (3/23/2012)
115 Christina Landing, Wilmington, DE/Christiana Towers
We all agree about the importance to bring awareness to many sensitive subjects that affect the GBLTQ community. As we, look to overcome hate crime related offenses, we are also seeking to find ways to educate and be part of a solution in hopes of creating a friendly bond between students, campus faculty members and the general public.
Our goal is to empower our students and teach them that “it will get better”, no matter what challenges “we” are facing, together we can bring fruitful change.
As we begin this journey to bring on change in our campus, we are getting ready to formally introduce our new club “Colors”, to our campus and others interested in attending. In light of spring approaching, it only felt right to name this event: “GBLTQ MIXER”.
LOCATION: 115 Christina Landing Drive Wilmington, DE
One of the two towers on the river front. Just following Market street from town. Take the first left after you go over the bridge. The event will take place in the club house of the first floor.
As a friendly reminder, please help spread the word to our professors, and our classmates, you can also post it on your Facebook page.
We hope you can join us.

Sunday Wisdom
It is a great error that we perceive happiness as a thunderous flash of excitement. Our search for that flash blinds us from seeing happiness present in every moment.

Tasty Tuesday: Mardi Gras
Fatten yourself up for Fat Tuesday (aka Mardi Gras)
BEIGNETS
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups lukewarm water
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 envelope active dry yeast
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1 cup evaporated milk
7 cups bread flour
1/4 cup shortening
Nonstick spray
Oil, for deep-frying
3 cups confectioners' sugar
Directions
Mix water, sugar, and yeast in a large bowl and let sit for 10 minutes.
In another bowl, beat the eggs, salt and evaporated milk together. Mix egg mixture to the yeast mixture. In a separate bowl, measure out the bread flour. Add 3 cups of the flour to the yeast mixture and stir to combine. Add the shortening and continue to stir while adding the remaining flour. Remove dough from the bowl, place onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Spray a large bowl with nonstick spray. Put dough into the bowl and cover with plastic wrap or a towel. Let rise in a warm place for at least 2 hours.
Preheat oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
Add the confectioners' sugar to a paper or plastic bag and set aside.
Roll the dough out to about 1/4-inch thickness and cut into 1-inch squares. Deep-fry, flipping constantly, until they become a golden color. After beignets are fried, drain them for a few seconds on paper towels, and then toss them into the bag of confectioners' sugar. Hold bag closed and shake to coat evenly.
