Because everyone could use a little chocolate



Don't you wish you could tailor a chocolate bar to your specific tastes? Well Elena Davert (CMC '12-WorldWatch Institute) did just that.
Step 1: Buy chunk of chocolate from WholeFoods
Step 2: Melt in a double boiler...or one pan with low boiling water, one over the top for chocolate.
Step 3: Take from heat, add desired flavors, spread on cookie sheet to cool.

Flavors we tried: Coconut curry, Chile and Cinnamon, Ginger

DC Program Students and Their Food


The DC Program is unique in many ways, but one aspect, living on your own, can prove challenging. For some DC participants it may be their first time really cooking for themselves. Portions of this blog are going to share the food adventures...and mishaps...of our group. Throughout the semester photos and stories from each living group will be brought to you. Please watch for more photos of food, recipes, and the general hilarity of students standing on their own two feet for the first time.

Welcome to DC!


Fall 2010 CMC Washington Program has officially begun. The program's orientation is this week, and so far the CMC students have met with all of the program faculty, been on a fabulous tour of the Supreme Court (thanks to the interim program director, Professor Zachary Courser), and had some wonderful meals together. The orientation has also included some valuable lessons on safety in DC led by Kenneth Barksdale, and a very informative panel on Professionalism in the Workplace led by CMC alumni Derek Pearce, Kaci Farrell, and Justin Murphy. More information and photos to follow!
