When I was a grad student at Cornell, I did research on congenital heart defects with chick embryos, so I literally became an expert on eggs, and embryonic development!

Chicken Soup
So I was listening to my ipod at work the other day and this song came on my ipod. I do not know why I have this on my ipod, but it made me think: ” I should do a blog post on chicken noodle soup! I make really good chicken noodle soup… or at least I think so!!! ” So here I am, writing a post about chicken noodle soup. I think it is a good time of year to eat soup.
