…DESIGN BY SHERRY CHEN …

…Sometimes, when we step away from our conventional wisdoms about the way something must work, we are able to realize true beauty lies not in the intricate but the familiar. Start by going back to your roots and exploring the implausible ways the simple can be rendered magnificent. At Spencer, the small but fierce 32-seat restaurant on Ann Arbor’s East Liberty Street, the philosophy is a unique one, and one that we typically...…

…The Michigan Daily — michigandaily.com b-side Thursday, December 6, 2018 — 3B The sweet tooth: society’s colloquial term to describe our sudden craving for sweets. Yet, the term almost comes with a hint of shame, as the sweet tooth tends to hit us hardest when we’re feeling a little stressed, a little down or maybe even just a little bored. Especially as students, we all relate to the sudden cravings that come with long study per...…

…2-BSide 4B —Thursday, December 6, 2018 b-side The Michigan Daily — michigandaily.com Veganism in Ann Arbor I dove head first into veganism when I came to the University my freshman year. There were no vegetarian training wheels to ease me into a major lifestyle transition of no animal products whatsoever. For those who aren’t familiar with the “eat food not friends” mantra, vegans don’t eat any animal-made products, including milk...…

…I don’t have many talents. I was never the star of the spring musical, I never scored the winning goal. What I have done is bake — a lot. Baking has inserted itself into every holiday, every major celebration in my life. Friend accepted to college? Bake a cookie cake for them. Got a cool internship? Cupcakes! Looking for a way to procrastinate on a Wednesday night? I’ve got a muffin recipe for you. Every part of baking is persona...…

…I write this having just signed my lease for the next school year, petrified at the prospect of having to cook for myself EVERY DAY.

When you’re raised by someone with a knack for cooking sans the recipes, you can’t help but feel like a fool every time you enter the kitchen (thanks Mom!). It’s more funny than it is t...…

…I n 2013, an undergraduate research project suggesting Oreos activated more of the brain’s pleasure centers than either cocaine or morphine set off a storm of media attention. However, the study was done in rats and never directly compared Oreos to either drug.

…Doing it the hard way EVANSTON — Maybe it was just a slip of the tongue. A minute into his press conference, trying to sum up a game in which his team played above its level yet still came up short, Northwestern coach Chris Collins offered the kind of statement you couldn’t have imagined anyone saying about Michigan a month ago. “We still fight back,” Collins said. “We take the lead, get it to the last two minutes again...…

…What will Michigan make of its season? There’s really no other way to spin it: picking up only one point last weekend against a reeling Michigan State team is embarrass- ing. From top to bottom, there needs to be a sense of urgency from the No. 15 Michi- gan hockey team. There is no questioning the fight the team displayed over the weekend — but even though the individual effort was there, the results were not. In order to ...…

…I ’ve never written about sex before. It’s always felt like a breach of some invisible social contract, like a taboo topic tip- toed around euphe- mistically because we can’t talk about the details: It’s too personal, too vulnerable, too awkward for your grandmother to hear you wrote an article about hook- ing up. I’ve always thrown sex into the category of things beyond my scope of personal, opin- ionated expertise,...…
