Meet the Disney Pixar Monsters University Fraternities and Sororities!

Are you ready to meet the Disney Pixar Monsters University Fraternities and Sororities! These students play a huge part in Monsters University! Earlier this week we met some of the students of Monsters University and checked out the early concept art for Monsters University. Today I thought it would be fun to learn about the heart and soul of Monsters University the Fraternities and Sororities! Monsters University Greek Council CLAIRE WHEELER, GREEK COUNCIL PRESIDENT (voice of Aubrey Plaza) Claire Wheeler is the Greek Council president at Monsters University, and this year she is one of the chosen emcees for the school’s annual Scare Games. Don’t be fooled by Claire’s brooding exterior and monotone drawl—banal in appearance, on the inside she is a galvanizing force of school spirit who diligently warns the Scare Game participants of the dangers they will face.

BROCK PEARSON, GREEK COUNCIL VICE PRESIDENT (voice of Tyler Labine)This preppy-looking fraternity monster has been chosen to assist the Greek Council president in emceeing the school’s annual Scare Games. Jock-like and what some might refer to as a “meathead,” Brock is a loud, enthusiastic emcee who relishes the danger of the Scare Games’ challenges. [Read more...]

Our favorite bread recipes, biscuit recipes and muffin recipes!

I love bread! I have to admit that I am a bread, biscuit and muffin fan! I thought it would be fun to compile our favorite bread recipes, biscuit recipes and muffin recipes!

There is nothing quite like baking bread, biscuits and muffins at home. The house smells so good! I love biting into a piece of just out of the oven warm bread. Oh my goodness it is one of the best moments while baking.

Learning to bake bread was one of the first things I did after I lost my job. I wanted to bake our own bread to save money and also have the great flavor that comes from home baked bread. I am so glad I learned how to bake bread! My joy of baking and cooking really stemmed from taking the time to learn to bake bread.

Monsters University Mike Wazowski

MIKE WAZOWSKI (voice of Billy Crystal)
Mike Wazowski’s lifelong dream is to become a Scarer at Monsters, Inc.—and he’s sure he knows just how to do it. Ever since he was a young monster, Mike’s had his eye on Monsters University, home of the world’s top Scare Program. Now a freshman and hopeful Scare student, he’s well versed in the rich history, theory and technique required to reach his goal, and the little green one-eyed monster has more confidence, enthusiasm, determination and heart than all of his classmates combined. But unexpected roadblocks derail Mike’s plans and he’s forced to team up with a group of misfit monsters and an unlikely ally to give it the old college try and pull off the biggest coup in the University’s history.
