Sadly, my Grandma Margaret passed away this weekend. I am traveling to Utica, NY for her funeral on Thursday. It's hard to imagine that she is gone, she was such a strong force in the family. I haven't really grasped the fact quite yet. She was one tough and intelligent woman, and she will be greatly missed.
My whole family (the Cifonelli side) is coming out. And my Dad will be on the east coast for the first time ever. So he will get to see Amherst and Boston.
Other than family issues, life has been a little hectic. Professor Miller is leaving for Australia for 4 weeks so we're trying to get all our projects in order. And all our gels keep getting double bands which is driving us a little insane. Also, I got a new debit card but cannot activate it. I called the bank and they said they will activate it today so hopefully that happens. That $3 isn't going to last very long.
Over the weekend Matt visited. We went strawberry picking and picked 10lbs of berries, which is way more than feasibly can be eaten on their own. So I've been baking a lot. Strawberry rhubarb pie, strawberry chocolate chip muffins, and I have all the fixins for a strawberry cheesecake so we'll see about that maybe next week. Strawberry jam may also be in the near future.
I hope all is well with everyone!
