Last weekend my friends and I took the (very necessary) liberty of treating ourselves to sushi at Osaka, one of three of Northampton’s downtown sushi restaurants--and apparently the one of the best according to the rave reviews on Yelp. This was my first time dining at Osaka but I can say it was certainly worthy of its praise;  the atmosphere is intimate yet inviting, the service is efficient, and given the relatively cheap prices the portions were generous and the sushi very satisfying. I’m no restaurant critic but that’s a pretty sweet deal in my book!

was my last first day of classes at Smith. I'm starting to feel like a senior but I still have no idea what I'm doing. I have to say though, I'm pretty pleased with one of my first assignments: to bake cookies to bring for next class. Yes delicious challenge, you are accepted.
