Mostly cheerful, sometimes snarky commentary on life science research and its broader impacts. Chana masala April 10, 2016. 8212; excitablescientist @ 10:35 pm. I thought it was impossible to screw up chana masala. TIL: this is not true, and also that certain conversations are possibly best left until after dinner. The last batch I made involved highly overcooked chickpeas (note to self! Adding baking soda before pressure cooking them really does work to decrease cooking time! 2 large onions, or 3 medium.

Mostly cheerful, sometimes snarky commentary on life science research and its broader impacts. Baked chickpea fritters March 28, 2016. 8212; excitablescientist @ 2:36 pm. This weekend, I felt like trying out a new recipe and I picked the Oh She Glows. I settled on this recipe for baked chickpea fritters (or “oil-free falafel bites” per Oh She Glows), and I share it with one message. Dearest fellow people of pallor: we need to stop ruining food that never did us any harm. 1/2 cup red onion. 1/2 tsp cayenn...

Mostly cheerful, sometimes snarky commentary on life science research and its broader impacts. Looking forward to looking back on all this April 28, 2016. 8212; excitablescientist @ 9:30 pm. We’ve been advised not to share details of adverse clinical experiences publicly, so I won’t, but I’ll say I’m looking very forward to the day when the notion that instilling fear in students is an effective way to teach is greeted with the ridicule it deserves.

Poppy (Part 2) | Petrichorus
https://petrichorus.wordpress.com/2010/11/16/poppy-part-2
Petrichor (PET-ri-kuhr) noun: The pleasant smell that accompanies the first rain after a dry spell. Chorus: A refrain in which others, such as audience members, join a soloist in a song. The Kindest Month →. November 16, 2010. This is another serious post, but my next one will probably be more light-hearted. Balance is good. I looked up the Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) webpage where you can purchase the peace buttons. And found an exhortation to “wear this peace button instead of, or. Anyway, it cer...

Clerkship: like chugging Gatorade on a hot summer’s day June 28, 2016. 8212; excitablescientist @ 9:58 pm. I wanted to write down some thoughts on clerkship at the end of my first week of Pediatrics, but, well I was on call 3 nights in 7 days and had a busy social schedule thereafter (that’s right!

https://excitablescientist.wordpress.com/2016/03/14/leftover-veggie-and-lentil-soup
Mostly cheerful, sometimes snarky commentary on life science research and its broader impacts. Leftover veggie and lentil soup March 14, 2016. 8212; excitablescientist @ 11:32 pm. Note: this makes quite a lot of soup, about 6 servings – enough to feed hungry roommates for a few days! Note #2: this soup would go really well with freshly baked bread; I swear by this no-knead recipe. More on that soon, but for the soup…. 2 large onions, chopped. 2 cups brown lentils. 3 potatoes, chopped into small pieces.
