It’s TWCnic day! (Third World Cooperative Picnic) You know what that means, another two-day long cooking extravaganza to prepare to feed an expected 150 people of color at our college. The TWCnic emerged as a big open meal at the end of the year, a way to show the campus community what Third World Cooperative is (a living and dining cooperative based on the foundations of the Third World Liberation Front, to live, work, and dine, with people of color in an intentional safer-space), and encourage them to join! Every year it seems I take on more responsibility, but I love it. Testing my limits, seeing how much food I can make, divvying up instructions to people, and at the end of it all trying to muster up enough energy to mingle and tell people about why I love my co-op! This year, we went the teriyaki burger route, and to accompany the sweet meat we needed some burger buns. I took it upon myself to make said buns, and did a full-on production, making 5 trays of buns flavored with poppyseed, green onion, and onion. Wahoo!
Babies, baking and being baked.
