2014 MULSA Halloween Party

Posted on by — No Comments ↓

MULSA’s Annual Halloween Party was held in the Ellis Staff Lounge on Friday, October 31. The lounge was decked out with spiders, ghosts, and pumpkins. Several contests were held: trivia, mini pumpkin decorating, and costumes. Treats included “liquid potion” (green punch), “bloody stumps” (cocktail sausages), brownies, pumpkin muffins, and an assortment of cookies.

A big THANK YOU goes out to MULSA’s Social Co-chairs, Tammy Green and Sheena Waggoner, for organizing this event!

Recipe: Tammie’s Chicken Nacho Dip

Posted on by — No Comments ↓

At last week’s Birthday Break in Technical Services, there were many tasty dishes. One of the stand-outs was a delicious dip made by Tammie Busch, Digital Services. It was served with nacho chips and several people went back for seconds. She found the recipe online:  Outrageous Warm Chicken Nacho Dip

Tammie’s notes:

— I used mild RO*TEL.

— I did not use the minced jalapenos.

— To make the chicken, I placed two large, frozen chicken breasts in a slow cooker with 2 cups of chicken broth and some garlic powder and cooked it on low for about 9 ½ hours. The chicken fell apart.

— I mixed the taco seasoning with the sour cream and placed it on top of the other ingredients.

Thank you for sharing this recipe with Muse readers, Tammie!

Instructors can upload video on any subject . Unlike YouTube, Curious lets teachers choose to charge for lessons. There are no creepy comments from anonymous YouTubers here, and the site’s proprietors approve teachers and eyeball content to ensure that these online classes are useful and of good quality. The lesson of the day (Sept. 29 2014) is how to check eggs for freshness.

Noël Kopriva is our new Agriculture, Food, and Natural Resources Librarian. We’re very glad that she’s joined the Mizzou family! Unfortunately, around the same time that Noël was making exciting plans for her career, she also received devastating news – she had breast cancer. She began blogging about the experience. You can follow her journey here: Noël's blog. Blogs can be a great creative outlet – as well as an efficient way of sharing information with others and a way to cope with a stressful situation. Our thoughts are with Noël as she continues her treatment.

Do you blog? If so, we’d love to hear about it in the comments or via email.
