Fordham College at Lincoln Center (FCLC) participated in National Park(ing) spot day on Sept. 18. In New York City alone, 50 parking spots were transformed into tiny bits of greenery and relaxation. A FCLC environmental design class mapped out two spots in front of Alan’s Deli and set the stage for some theatre students to perform parts of Shakespeare’s work.
As I am going into my third week of “getting ripped,” I am coming to one ultimate realization: working out can become tedious. Earlier last week, I found myself sitting absolutely exhausted on the stationary bike in the Fordham gym after a 30-minute workout.
Gazpacho is a traditional Spanish cold soup made during the hot summer months in every home from Catalunya to Andalucia. I learned this easy, vegetarian recipe from my host mother in Sevilla during my spring 2009 semester abroad. It perfectly represents Spanish cooking: a blend of seasonal ingredients like tomatoes and red peppers, clean and simple flavors and just the right amount of garlic.
Some people hear the word “curry” and run. But the truth is, it is just a generic term for sauce. Indian curries are the most famous, but curry can also be found in Thailand, Malaysia, Japan and many other countries. There are also many types of Caribbean curries.
Kick-starting a series of easy takeout meals you can make at home is this classic diner dish. College students commonly order burgers in restaurants and for delivery, but making them at home is cheaper and healthier. A cheeseburger deluxe at The Flame costs $8.
Popping corn on the stove sounds intimidating, but it’s actually really easy, and it takes about the same amount of time as putting that blast-o-butter bag into the microwave and pressing start. It also tastes a lot better and has no preservatives or chemicals.
A pressing issue for anyone who hosts Thanksgiving dinner? What to do with all of those leftovers. A few will be given out to guests; the stuffing goes to an aunt, the turkey to someone’s college-age cousin. And the rest will be thoughtlessly microwaved and eaten for a week until you find yourself thankful that the cranberry sauce is finally finished and you can go back to eating normal food again.
Dorm life can be rough, living with different people, doing your own laundry and of course getting food. No one wants to cook when cramming for tests and Manhattan doesn’t exactly have the world’s cheapest food. That’s why I have a tasty and easy Mexican dip recipe that requires very little work, making it ideal for dorm life.

The concept of the mashup seems like a terrible idea at first. Why would anyone want to hear two or more songs they like crushed together into a new track? It’s very unlikely that it’ll be better than the original song and may even ruin the number if it’s put together with a song they don’t like.
