Never once have I said “ooh email!” with excitement…..excitement over random online purchases arriving in boxes at my apartment, when I’ve forgotten what I ordered…..that’s another story.

I did a thing this morning! A RADIO INTERVIEW (in German!!) on @radioeins-playlist.bsky.social with Katja Weber. Talking about sugar, and its effect on our body! (I was so nervous to hear the playback of it….😅 the challenge of being an “expert” in your non-native language!)

Today is #BoysandGirlsDay and I’m so excited to greet our curious young scientist when he comes to visit the lab today! (Wearing my Ms. Frizzle t-shirt today to remind 12 year old me how cool I found science back then!) #takechances #makemistakes #getmessy

Whoa! Tara and I overlapped at Vanderbilt University. She’s been doing so many great things at the NIH, this is sad to see.

Well…I made it until March without getting groceries in 2025. My kitchen still isn’t empty. Now I’m debating: get groceries or keep going? I’m certain I’ve got at least another week of food. Or more. 😅🙈
