Em and Frank Move In

Emily and Frank moved into their first house!!  Frank has a new job at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and Emily will be taking classes at the University.  We are very excited to be living in the same state as them!!  Alex made the drive to Pittsburgh this weekend to help them move their stuff in.  I wish I could have gone, but we have our first round of exams this week.

Salted Caramel Ice Cream

We were craving something sweet this past weekend so I decided to make salted caramel ice cream!  We made a few changes from our previous ice cream making adventures and the creamy goodness turned out perfect!

 

Pretty Garbage

We saw the prettiest garbage truck today and just had to take a picture :)

Welcome Back Party 2010

Last night was Drexel's Welcome Back Party at the restaurant Water Works.  It is such a pretty place located between the art museum and the Schuylkill river.  We had a blast!

Water Works at night!

Drexel Activities Fair

This afternoon was the Drexel Activities Fair!  Each student group puts out a table with information on their club and you can sign up for whatever you are interested in.  Each table also puts out some sort of edible persuasion to join their email list so, inevitably, I can now look forward to getting a 100 emails!  Hilary started a group this year for Drexel med students interested in helping out with Philadelphia's ACCT (Animal Care and Control Team).  This way, students can take a little breather from school to go spend time walking, playing with, or helping to adopt out the animals in Philadelphia's animal shelters.  I decided to make special cupcakes for Hilary's table.

A doggie!  My frosting was a little too soft and didn't give my cupcakes the exact look I was going for.

Kitty

The whole plate!  I started out with twelve big cupcakes and twenty-four smaller ones... these were all that made it to Monday afternoon :)

Hilary's table!

Stella's American Medical Woman's Association table.  I am part of this club!!

Rohini and Meaghan's Neurology Interest Group... I am not part of this one, but I ate their candy anyway :)

Adventures in Center City

Danielle, Kia, Alex and I went down to Center City to spend the afternoon.  We sat and enjoyed the beautiful weather in Rittenhouse Park and walked around town.  It was fun exploring potential future living spots downtown!!

A Philly Picnic

We are back in Philly!  Alex, Moo and I moved back to Philadelphia about a week ago.  We had an amazing summer and it was very sad to see it end.  It has been a while since we last updated and so much has happened!  Hopefully once we settle back into a groove, we will be better at remembering to take pictures :)

The weather has been so nice in Philadelphia these past few days so we decided to take advantage of it and have a picnic!  We went across the street to Cloverly Park with our cute little picnic basket from Judy!

Cheers!
