My student planner tells me today starts Community College Month, so I’ll “celebrate” by sharing with you some pictures from my first day of school yesterday. Yup, Momma’s going back to school!<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n
I was sick on Monday so I missed the first day of classes, making Wednesday my first day. I’m taking courses each quarter of this coming year to fulfill eight prerequisites I have left before applying to Ultrasound Technology Schools. If accepted, I will start in September 2011 and graduate in August 2013. Then Siena will be almost five, with another year left before kindergarten. I should be able to work two or three days a week as an Ultrasound Technician and make about what I was making as a teacher. I will be able to leave work at work though, not take home hours of paperwork that would keep me from my family.<\/p>\n
The first step down that long path is across the threshold of the local community college, and that’s where I went on Wednesday. Later that evening, lucky wife that I am, my husband cooked dinner! That will be our plan for Mondays and Wednesdays the next 10 weeks. <\/p>\nngg_shortcode_1_placeholder\n
Here’s my blog version of his recipe that yielded such delicious results:<\/p>\n
Stir fry yellow onions and bean sprouts in sesame oil.
\nUse a combination of teriyaki sauce and soy sauce to fry up extra firm tofu, baby shrimp, canned bean sprouts, baby corn, scrambled egg, and mushrooms.
\nMix into steamed rice, fold in some cold cucumbers and tomatoes.<\/p>\n
If you want to do it exactly like HawkInWinter, be sure to use three frying pans, two casserole dishes, a bowl, cutting board, knife, spatula, and a rice cooker. They will pretty much fill a dishwasher.<\/em><\/p>\nngg_shortcode_2_placeholder\n So what do you think, does it make you want to go back to school too?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" My student planner tells me today starts Community College Month, so I’ll “celebrate” by sharing with you some pictures from my first day of school yesterday.
