And this one is truly amusing. The summer before I went to Mason, I went fishing with my parents and my Uncle Bob (in the background) on the Chesapeake Bay (I think). I caught a fish. I didn’t want to touch it. This picture resulted.
Yes, that’s actually my natural hair color. I had weird red [...]
My beloved mother is a doctor. A pediatrician to be exact. She’s pretty kickbutt at her job too- she’s an officer in the AAP section on Bioethics and used to be an editor of Grand Rounds. She’s brilliant. And hilarious. And gorgeous. I’ve been told I take after her a bit. So anyways, all the [...]
I hung out with my sister Karen and my awesome niece Maggie a bit today. This video was one of the results.
: )
Here are two awesome videos I took in Paris of these performers I became absolutely obsessed with one night outside of Notre Dame. In fact, I got so distracted I never actually properly got to go in and look around the Cathedral- my only big regret from my EuroTour. Still, just check out how awesome [...]
For a while now, I’ve been reading the great fun which is the Cupcake Project, an experimental baking blog by a very funny lady who churns out cupcakes of all the weird flavors under the sun. For a while now, I’ve wanted to make the recipe for Beer and Cheese Cupcakes.

So did I mention I was going to Rome this last weekend? It came up in the hostel post, but I don’t think I ever elaborated.
Basically, I went by myself, pretty spur of the moment, and it was fabulous. I got to do nearly everything I wanted to. I got some incredibly good food and [...]
This is really random, but I was curious to see how many political candidates/leaders/presidents etc. I’ve taken pictures of over the years. Consider this a retrospective of Rachael’s random political pics.
I obviously didn’t take these few photographs of my third grade class with former President George W. Bush, then Governor of Texas. See if you [...]
Last Friday, I took pictures all throughout my day in London and wrote clever captions to them for Connect2Mason.com. If you have any desire to know more about what I do all day, go here to find out. : )
I went through the Hussein Chalayan exhibition at the Design Museum in London and was alternately intrigued, impressed, and disappointed. Essentially, I thought the designer’s ideas were brilliant but the exhibit was very limited in portraying them effectively- I was frustrated by some of the set-ups and wished they had tried to explain the concepts [...]
