'Tis the season!
Unfortunately for most of us, though, it's the season for cumulative projects, giant term papers and all-around end-of-semester stress. Nary a sugarplum dances in our heads; instead, we dream anxiously about
showing up for our last final only to realize it happened yesterday. Many students simply don't have the time, resources or transportation to enjoy the holidays as they might at home.
Plus, with so much on our plates this time of year, Christmas shopping pretty much becomes an afterthought. Gifts for Mom and Dad tend to consist of the latest Steve & Barry's fashions, generally purchased an hour after the last final and an hour before heading home. And shopping for roommates? Forget it-they're getting the rent check in their stockings.
In hopes of making your holidays a little brighter, the Cardinal is
providing a smattering of easy holiday recipes you can whip up when you're feeling like winter break will never get here. Whip up some cookies and fudge or spike your favorite festive drinks. We've also provided a few ideas for edible \gifts in a jar"" you can assemble if you just don't have the time or funds for holiday presents.
