Yet another excuse to eat

After caterer J.C. Hillman let me shoot her picture today with the biggest cinnamon twist in the civilized world, she insisted I take it.
She was feeling generous because she was celebrating the opening of her new business, "The Chuckwagon," right here in the Student Services building on the Lake Havasu City campus.
The rest of us had reason to celebrate, too. Now we can purchase and eat real food made when ordered by a human without driving somewhere in an automobile whose interior temperature is 130 degrees. Woopee!
The opening of The Chuckwagon is momentous for more reasons than because it is convenient for people like me. Being able to buy food on campus and eat it with your classmates and friends - or while spending quality time with a textbook - is part of the college experience that our students have been missing out on.
As an undergraduate at the University of New Mexico, I ate every day - and I mean every day - in the student union building. I kept eating there even after I graduated and got a job on campus. The SUB, as it was called, was my big, echoy home away from home (I also slept, studied and watched art films there) and the ladies who made that fantastic New Mexican food were my surrogate aunts.
So, yeah, food on campus is a big deal. Bon appetit.
