One of the subjects I’m doing this semester involves posting weekly on the online Moodle system about the set readings… Then reading and respoding to the other students’ postings.
Week 1′s topic is change, and reactions to change within the sytem at all levels. Change brings all sorts of emotions and challenges – as does reading and responding!
Supposedly, communication is my expertice (spelling isn’t. Is it ise or ice?), and I love an online discussion, but it seems I am part of the first (of more, for sure) misunderstanding. Choice of terms (I think my use of ‘reluctant’ may have been interpreted with negative connotations – remember, there are trur synonyms) has had one respondant interpret my response as a mild attack, perhaps reflecting both of our attitudes.
I’m looking forward to meeting my classmates on Saturday – a long day starting with a 3 hour drive with 4 of them! I think I may be the youngest in the group, reading their intros. Not an uncommon situation for me to be in though!

Ahh we love to go “gourmet” around here. That means few ingredients, minimal chopping and impressive results. Like this mushroom, rocket and romano cheese salad. Dress with Balsamic vinegar. Nice.

salad
12 stalks of rhubarb
juice and grated zest of one lemon
2 tablespoons orange juice (fresh or bottled is fine)
Tablespoon sugar (the recipe reckons artificial sweetener, like Splenda, but I don’t have any, and don’t think it’s worth it!)
Teaspoon ground cinnamon
Teaspoon vanilla essence
Put into a pot on low heat. stir stir stir for about 10 minutes until you get a delicious mush. I don’t like it stalky, prefer it close to the one consistency. You will end up with a few lumpy bits.
Serve with Greek yoghurt. Which I shouldn’t have, but I did anyway. I wonder is a little honey would be nice on top?
