This is a rather belated post, but so be it - it's been so busy recently I keep forgetting write it up! My SURP pals and I recently discovered $5 Tuesdays at AMC theaters! (Actually $6.75 with fees... but hey, still not too bad!) Considering movies in NY are otherwise pretty egregiously expensive, we would make Tuesdays work whenever we wanted to see something. Normally I'm not much of a movie ...
Schindler’s List Recap
Happy fourth of July everyone! Being in NY for the fourth was quite the experience. My SURP group had a lovely time in Gantry Plaza State Park in Queens, where we camped out from about 3:30 pm till the fireworks started at 9:30 and had a fantastic picnic (all organized by us!). The fireworks themselves were awesome - we had a great view, and could see four sets going off down the river ...
A productive morning and a frittata night.
Last week Friday I skipped the gym and headed out early to get some work done at a coffee shop. While I normally object to going to huge chains when there are so many great independent spots available in a place like NYC, I had a free reward expiring soon (in two days!) at Starbucks, so I ended up there. After all, NY is expensive, so getting to enjoy a drink for free was an especially nice ...
Farmer’s Markets, Scavenger Hunts, and Pools, Oh My!
What a great Saturday! While today started off less than stellar, it quickly turned itself around! I woke up around 5:30 because I was quite simply too hot to do anything, including sleeping. I decided I might as well get up and do something, so I went to the gym downstairs (I did NOT go for a run outside, as the heat just made that too unpalatable to consider). Then I joined some friends ...
The Williams Family Reunion!
This past weekend I headed off to Batavia, NY for the annual family reunion on my dad's side of the family. (Fun fact: my parents were both born with the last name Williams, so I can't just say "I went to the Williams family reunion," because that phrase would refer to either/both sides of my family!) When I was looking into going to Batavia from NYC, I originally looked at train and bus ...
The Many Hats of Insulin
Today instead of talking about food, I'm going to talk about something closely related to food consumption - insulin! This summer, I am conducting research as part of a summer undergraduate research program at NYU. The lab I am working in studies Parkinson's disease, particularly relationships between different hormones and neurotransmitters in Parkinson's disease, and recently they have been ...
