Holiday Gifting?

A number of you had written me after yesterday’s Daily Deac to ask for the recipe for my mom’s cookies (y’all are so sweet). These taste sort of like shortbread. I hope you like them! P’92’s Awesome Red Cookies 2 c. butter  3/4 c. sugar […]


You have no idea the impact you might be making

It’s the time of year when I start making Christmas cookies (our office has a little tradition where we deliver cookies to some of our campus partners). These cookies are ones my P’92 mother has always made – very simple (yet delicious) butter and sugar […]


Seen in Reynolda

I was up in Reynolda and Benson today and saw that the holiday decorations are starting to go up. The big Moravian star is hanging over the doors of Wait Chapel (sun was not at a good angle to get a picture), and the Christmas […]


Back to work

Meet a Deac – Denisha Champion

Today is COLD. Like a high of 44 degrees cold. And it has been sprinkling on and off, which makes it feel even colder. I had a meeting in Reynolda and as I was headed there, I could see many students clutching their coats tighter […]
