CRAB CAKES

I Can’t Believe It’s Not Crab Cakes

Today in our cooking class we made I Can’t Believe It’s Not Crab Cakes.  Peers could smell the crab cakes and came to the kitchen to see what we were cooking.  I thought it was very creative and it was yummy.  I was so excited about this recipe I was inclined to make it at home. I made a list with my sister and I took it to Target to buy the groceries.  Then I went home to meet my sister and made the appetizer. It made me feel really good to work with my sister on this.

Here is the recipe

Ingredients

2 cups coarsely grated zucchini

Salt

1 egg beaten

1 and ½ teaspoons Old Bay seasoning

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1 Tablespoon mayonnaise

Juice of 1/2 a lemon

¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

Vegetable oil for frying pan

Method: Place grated zucchini in a colander. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Let zucchini sit for about 30 minutes allowing it to drain. Squeeze to remove additional liquid. It should be fairly dry. Place zucchini and bread crumbs in a large bowl and mix together. Add the Old Bay, lemon juice and egg. Mix. Roll into balls. Put into a frying pan with vegetable oil. Let brown on one side; turn them over and brown on the other side. Put them on a bun and enjoy.

BOOK OF LOVE

 Who Wrote the Book of Love?

“Beloved, let us love one another; for love is of God, and he who loves is born of God and knows God. (1 John 4:7)  In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the expiation for our sins." (1 John 4:10)

What does this all mean?   From what I got from it, it might go as follows.  First of all, God loves every single one of us. It doesn’t matter if you’re black or white, Christian or Atheist or pious or irreverent. You are human therefore He loves you now, He always will love you, and He always has loved you.  Second of all, God literally is love. Love is with every good relationship so that means so is God.  If two people loved each other no matter what religious background they have, for example, God is there as well.  Thirdly, Jesus when he was in human form was love in human form.  Fourthly, He didn’t do the things he did because we loved him back but out of the sheer amount of love he has for us.  He became human in full knowledge of the suffering he would befall just so we can be able to enter heaven.  Finally we MUST love one another no matter who they are or what they do or whatever might make us not want to because if we can’t love others, then we fail to do good.

One might wonder, “If I am faithful and knowledgeable and did many things then that should be good enough, why care for others?”  The problem with that line of thinking is we learn in Corinthians that nothing is more important than love.  “But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.”  (1 Corinthians 13:13).  Finally do you have to love God?  According to Matthew 22: 37-40, we are meant to love God above all else but, still love one another.

BASEBALL TRIP

 O's - Nat's

On Saturday, June 18^th Megan Flynn and Ben Romney took a van load of clients to Nationals Park in Washington, D.C. to see the Baltimore Orioles play the Washington Nationals.  One of the clients was wearing a Nationals jersey and hat while another one had on an Orioles hat.  We were trying to buy the five dollar day of game only tickets.  However, they were all gone by about fifteen minutes before first pitch was scheduled.  All that was left were ten dollar standing room only.  So, we had to make the best out of an unfortunate situation.  For those people who had five dollars they paid Megan and went in with Ben and enjoyed the game while Megan took everyone else out to eat.  A ticket taker who is also a St. Luke’s client hooked the rest of the group up and let them into the stadium after the game had started.  Sadly, the Orioles would be defeated by the Nationals by a score of 4-2.

Terps-UVA by Kris L.

On Monday, May 30^th I attended the Division One Men’s Lacrosse Championship game between the Maryland Terrapins and Virginia Cavaliers.  It was played at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, MD.  The Terrapins were going for their first national championship since 1975.  At the half the Cavaliers held a 5-3 lead which would become 6-3 early in the 3^rd quarter.  However, the Terrapins scored the next three goals to tie the score at six.  At that point the momentum seemed to shift to the Terrapins and the mostly pro Maryland crowd started to make some noise.  Unfortunately for the Terrapins the Cavaliers would score the next three goals to go up 9-6 and basically put the game out of reach.  The Terrapins scored with less than a minute left and made the final score 9-7.  When the scoreboard clock hit 0:00 I just sat in my seat, dejectedly.  Meanwhile, my dad made a bee-line for the exit and my mom followed.  She looked at me and said, “I know.”  Reluctantly, I left my “Let’s Go Terps” sign that was made the day before under my seat and followed them to the car.  Colin Briggs, a player on Virginia’s roster scored five goals.  He had been suspended for the National Semi-Final game that was played on Saturday, May 28^th.
