Generosity week ran from February 24th to March 2nd 2014 at USF as a way for students to give thanks for the generosity of all the donors that contribute to the University of San Francisco.
The week started with a Generosity Food Truck Kickoff, a “Thank You” banner signing and a chance for students to meet the student philanthropy committee.

Generous baggage weight allowances on Virgin Atlantic gave me the confidence to go a little bit mad on buying diecasts on my recent trip to America. So thank you Virgin and God bless America for your incredibly diverse range of well priced 1/64 models which can be picked up at will in most major chain stores. Not just pocket money toys but also wonderful premium lines like this 1969 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am made by my new favourite Auto World brand. Part of their Vintage Muscle series it is one of many classic U.S. vehicles they produce with amazing precision and attention to detail and something previously unseen by myself. A true 1/64 scale gem there has been no skimping on construction with a wonderfully weighty all metal body and more separate pieces than an Ikea wardrobe, absolutely magnificent though a little bit depressing that these types of models can't be found in any of our U.K. supermarkets! This came from a Wal-Mart. Mint and boxed.

Let's face it. It's hard to make money when you're a kid. You feed the dog, take out the trash, make your bed, set the table, and do whatever else your parents deem appropriate... all for about a buck a day (at least in our house). If you're lucky, maybe you hawk a cup of lemonade for about 25 cents. In an age where Wii games cost $50 and iPads cost $500, your pittance doesn't get you very far.
So imagine my surprise when my 8-year-old came to me, money jar in his little hands, and asked if he could donate some of his own money to the people in Japan. I'm not quite sure where he got the idea but it almost moved me to tears. I'm so often questioning how good I am at this parenting stuff but at least I know I've done something right.

Crucifixion. Originally a triple window in St Peter’s Cathedral, removed when St Peter’s was enlarged, later installed at Holy Trinity. Created by William Wailes, Son & Strang of Newcastle-on-Tyne, erected in memory of James Farrell, first Dean of Adelaide, and his wife Grace Montgomery Farrell.
“The Cathedral of St. Peter's . . . The Farrell window is on the right side of the chancel, and bears the following inscription :— ‘In memoriam James Farrell, M.A., T.C.D., first Dean of Adelaide, obit. MDCCCLXII., and Grace Montgomery, his wife’. The Subject — ‘The Crucifixion’ -— is worked out in the most beautiful colors.” [Advertiser 29 Jan 1876]
“At present in the chancel of the cathedral there are two memorial windows — the one placed in memory of the late Bishop Short, the other in memory of the late Dean Farrell. The new design for that end of the cathedral takes the form of an apse, in which there will be three windows. The intention was to place the two existing memorial windows one at each side of a new central window. . . Owing to the improvement in the art of staining glass . . . the central window would be so greatly superior to those between which it would be placed that the harmonious effect of the whole would, be destroyed, and it would seem hardly an honour to the memory of Bishop Short and Dean Farrell that they should be represented by windows which would appear so inferior. . . Mr. Barr Smith again generously came to the rescue, and offered to give new glass for all three windows, stipulating in the most emphatic terms that the two side windows were to be memorials to the late Bishop Short and Dean Farrell, and should bear the same inscriptions as at present. . . The existing windows will, of course, be carefully preserved and given to other churches as memorials of the late Bishop and Dean.” [Register 1 Dec 1900]
“One of the illuminated windows erected in St. Peter's cathedral to perpetuate the memory of the late Bishop Short is to be presented to St Bartholomew's church. . . The other is to be presented to Trinity church. [Register 17 Nov 1900]
“The authorities offered the Bishop Short window to St. Bartholomew's, and it was accepted gladly. The Dean Farrell window is still in the possession of the Cathedral authorities. Holy Trinity Church, on North terrace, or St. Peter's College Chapel would be suitable places for it, as both have associations with the late Dean Farrell.” [Register 25 Aug 1911]
Church foundation stone 26 Jan 1838 by Governor Hindmarsh, opened Aug 1838.Building closed 1 Dec 1844, walls & tower having cracked dangerously and congregation moved to St John’s, Halifax St, re-opened 10 Aug 1845. Named as pro-cathedral with arrival of Bishop Short 1847, consecrated Jul 1848. New schoolroom opened Sep 1887. Worship in schoolroom while church enlarged & renovated 1888-89, architect Edward John Woods, walls raised 4-5 feet, tower also raised, new stone darker than original limestone from quarry behind Government House.
In 1837 Rev Charles Howard, the colonial chaplain, held first services under a sail. A wooden prefabricated church sent out by the Church Society proved to be too flimsy and parts were later used for a schoolroom. Services were held in a wooden court house in Gilles Arcade off Currie St until the stone church was built on North Terrace.
The church registers were inscribed “Trinity” and under the foundation stone was placed a lead plate inscribed “The foundation stone of Trinity Church was laid . . .” The earliest newspaper reference to “Holy Trinity” occurs in Oct 1849 but both names continued to be used for many years.
Three generous scoops of ice cream--chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla--topped with gooey hot fudge, chopped peanuts, fresh whipped cream, and a brightly colored cherry is a delectable treat sure to complement any outfit, and it makes a wonderful gift for ice cream lovers or anyone who's counting down to the lazy days of summer.
The handmade yellow plate is 3/4" in diameter. The bowl and all food items are also handmade from polymer clay, and the silver plated ring is adjustable for a comfortable fit on a range of sizes.
I'm not cheating, Until I get a worthwhile picture taken today, this is just a stand in.
After we had finished our paella on Sunday, the Spaniards at the fiesta gave us some of their desserts including this sandia (water melon) which had been very artfully cut to form a flower shape.
It was very kind of them and the melon was delicious. As you can see it doesn't have many pips which saved the usual fiddling to remove them.
