In honor of having the day off for Independence Day, my housemate Karina and I decided to adventure off to San Francisco! While not too far from Novato, where we're living, it is a bit of a trek, and between traffic and parking costs, driving there is something I try to avoid. So, we decided to take the ferry! This ended up being quite fun - not only is it barely more expensive than bussing, but ...
Top Books of June!
It's amazing how much free time you can have when you're not in school, MCAT studying, etc., and as a result, I've been reading more recently! While I could tell you about all of the books I've been reading, I think I'll limit myself (for today at least!) to one that I've found especially enjoyable: The The Importance of Being Little, by Erika Christakis. The Importance of Being Little is truly ...
California: Point Reyes Adventures!
If last summer was focused on food, this summer is about hikes, nature, and exploring the outdoors (with some significant attention still paid to food, of course)! California so far has lived up to its hype! Where I'm staying (a little townhouse) is just a few minutes' walk from the Indian Valley Open Space Preserve, so I've been going on lovely little walks/runs/hikes though there almost ...
Red Curry Paste: Triumphs and Pitfalls
Somehow, rather incredibly, graduation is nearly upon us! Last Friday I presented at Luther College's Research Symposium - a lovely day of no classes, free food, and hearing about what friends have been working on for the last few months. After that we have just one more week of classes, finals, and then graduation! Every spring feels like a whirlwind, I think, and this one is certainly no ...
Hints of Summer: Good Books and Excellent Asparagus!
Hello everyone! I don't know about all of you, but I have been loving our weather recently! As someone who is not a big fan of the cold (yet somehow grew up in Minnesota), being able to walk across campus without all limbs being locked in shivering spasms is something wonderful that I do not take for granted! While I have yet to get out my hammock, or enjoy a good book under a nice tree, I have ...
A Belated Welcome to 2019, and Biscotti!
Hello Everyone! It has been a long time coming, but I am officially back! I apologize for the rather excessive blogging hiatus, but between MCAT studying and a full class load, I didn't have too much free time this fall/winter for fun things like this. Hopefully you didn't miss me too much! That said, I did make some pretty delicious things to consume while I studied, including quite the line-up ...
