CallaLilly13's Fall 2007 Recruitment

[CallaLilly13]

Sorry for the delay... it's been a VERY long day. To try and make a long story short Day Two was saturday and I got back all five of my top five which I was plesantly surprised by. By the end of they day I knew I would have been happy in any of them. We have a lot of great houses on campus. So it was really hard to rank them. But I finally was able to and yesterday was Preference night. I went back to Chocolate Mousse and Cheesecake. Both ceremonies were very beautiful but in the end I felt a connection with one house more so than the other. I'd have been happy with either one of them though. I ranked them as

1) Chocolate Mousse
2) Cheesecake

And if you haven't already guessed why I'm writing so late it's because today was Bid Day! And I recieved a bid from CHOCOLATE MOUSSE! So now I'm wearing a ribbon (for now) of ...... two colors.............................

But it's not completely impossible/irrational that if she joined GPhiB they would give her brown and pink ribbons, right?? I know that "Pink isn't official", but since it's in the brand, and many undergrad chapters use it for jerseys, t-shirts, etc, it's possible that they would have used brown and pink ribbons.

Actually it is - the ribbons they get are always brown and mode. It's the law.

Congratulations on AXO, CallaLilly13!

That is what I was thinking. And if she goes to school where I am thinking, there is a Gamma Phi Chapter there.

While we're waiting for CallaLily13 to end our suspense, I thought yall might like one of the easiest and best testing recipes that I have for a pie:

"Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie"

2 graham cracker shells (yep, one recipe makes 2 pies!)
2 cups Crunchy Peanut Butter
1 can Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed milk
1 16 oz Cool Whip, softened
Tad of Chocolate Syrup

Mix together all ingredients (using mixer towards the end to make light and fluffy), pour half of mixture into each of two graham cracker crusts. On top of bottom part of mixture, drizzle a little chocolate syrup and spread over the bottom half. Now finish off both pies with rest of pie mixture, put in freezer til frozen. These are slap your grandmother good, and no one lets me bring anything to any function anymore but these things. I accept your thanks in advance!!!

Talk about thread hijacks!!

By the way this was the biggest group of girls to ever go through recruitment and we were over quota with 43 girls in my class, bringing the house total to 120 girls! It's been insane trying to remember everyone's name!
