I made a very tasty stir fry dinner and since my mom can post recipies I will do the same. However, there are no amounts, just dashes of this and that.

For the sauce: soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic powder, salt and pepper.

Cut some chicken and onion and cook in a hot pan that was heated with some oil. Then add the vegetables (I had broccoli, carrots and red peppers). Cook for as long as you want. I like my vegetables particularly crunchy so after about seven minutes I think the whole thing was ready.

It was really tasty and served on a bed of rice.

My roommate Jenny thinks I am very domestic...I'll just let her think this.

On a different note: I like hammering things. I have hung two things in my room: a mirror and a rug and it's just lots of fun.

Time for tehilim.

Have a good night.

Upon coming to Einstein I have acquired many new keys-keys for my apartment, mailbox, another mailbox at school, garage, lab, and a key I don't even know what it would open. It makes me nervous because I used to loose keys many-a-time and at home we have the little combination code thing. Can you imagine though if everywhere you went the door had a code, I think that may be too many different patterns to remember.

I know have a lab. I was labless for a while but now I have a desk space and soon I'll have a project to work on. It's all very exciting and a little intimidating. Here is the website of the guy I am working with at the present time:

Back to studying for my biochemistry exam...

So why is it that I am willing to pay $2.94 for a tall, skim, extra hot, with whip, caramel macchiato, while I feel that it is ridiculous to pay $1.90 for a medium coke. I think the answer lies in the number of adjectives used to describe the drink...:).
