Well, I'm surviving the cold, still enjoying most of my classes, and managing with the workload. I had my first really late night working until 3am on Thursday- 12 hours straight of reading pronunciation articles and writing pedagogical implications. I was really proud that I finished and it was fairly good quality. And, believe it or not, I didn't put it off until the last minute, I started two weeks ago, and had been working on it whenever I had a spare moment. But I have been engulfed with TA work (30 hours last week, 30 hours this week!) and my research class which has an incredible workload. Anyway, after the next few days of marking midterms, I have reading week (just in time). It corresponds with Alberta's "Family Day" Holiday, which was instituted to help depressed people through the miserableness of winter. I feel that! Anyway, as to the title of my blog post, I feel the need to proclaim my love of Tim
Hortons' low fat cranberry muffins. I always scoffed at low fat muffins in the past (why bother if they taste like cardboard), but now that I've tried them, I can't go back. I always get a low fat cranberry muffin when I need something sweet and it's so much healthier than my previous favourite, the sour cream glazed donut. And, lest you think the cranberry would make it tart, the reason I love it is because it's so sweet and reminds me exactly of vanilla flavoured cakes from my easy bake oven in childhood (seriously!)
