Oatmeal cookies with a twist! Instead of adding all raisins like in traditional oatmeal raisin cookies, I replaced half with goji berries. Goji berries have many health benefits. Some even call it a superfood. They are a good source of vitamin C, vitamin A, fiber, iron, zinc, and antioxidants. They can boost your immune system, protect you from the flu, help you lose weight, maintain blood sugar, and protect your eyes and skin. Compared to raisins, goji berries have less calories and lower sugar content (1/4 cup raisins has 120 calories, while 1/4 cup goji berries has 90 calories). If you want to read more about the health benefits of goji berries, I recommend this website . But, enough about goji berries. These cookies taste just like a regular oatmeal raisin cookie. The goji berries have a subtle sweet taste the pair nicely with the cookie. It's chewy, soft perfection. Oatmeal Raisin Goji Berry Cookie This recipe makes 12-18 medium-sized cookies and takes about 30-4...

Rating: ★★★★★ 5/5 Title: Until I Die Author: Amy Plum Series: Revenants #2 Followed By: If I Should Die Published: May 8th, 2012 Pages: 353 pages Genre: Paranormal Romance, Supernatural, YA Review:  Introducing action and suspense!

There is a bit of tension between Kate and Vincent due to secrets they hide from each other, but they are still very romantic ...

I wanted to share a school project that I worked on in my junior year of high school. It was for an advanced biology course (my favorite class of all time, btw). The goal was to write a 5000 — 7500 word research paper (well, more like a review paper) on a topic of our choice. I chose to write on the chemotherapy resistance of pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest cancers of all time. The story behind my choice is quite personal. But the basic gist is that two of my family members currently have pancreatic cancer, and it's devastating to know they might only have a few months or years left with me. I wanted to learn more about why this disease is so hard to treat and why the 5-year survival rate is only 7%. As you guys know, cancer is extremely hard to cure. They have lots of ways to hide from our immune system and resist therapy. It's super complicated and I spent almost half a year compiling, writing, and editing what I learned into a paper, and I want to share this so t...
