Throwing Stress Out to Sea

I have discovered that nothing quite purges me of the oppression that stress causes, and lets me relax, as much as a walk on the beach

Easter Feaster

Freshman and sophomore year, my mom used to send me Easter baskets in the mail. This year I got a card a week early, mostly just because they had to send me a packet of mail that had been sent to the house, anyway. I put on a pale yellow shirt with flowers, but I spent the afternoon in my EE459 lab, so it wasn't the most festive day.

I decided that a tasty feast was in order to celebrate the holiday.

Udon noodles, seared steak, green onions, sesame seeds + seasonings. Twas a delish dish, indeed!
