If you are a student at the University of Delaware, back me up when I say that there really is no place like Main Street. From bagel shops, to pizza parlors, to lively bars, and everything in between, Main Street has it all. The amount of options can, at times, be pretty overwhelming, so some guidance and recommendations can always be helpful to those who are unfamiliar with the area. Here are some food spots that you cannot miss if you ever find yourself on Main Street.

1. Klondike Kates

If you are debating on where to go for dinner on a Tuesday night, Klondike Kates is the place to be. Why is that you may be wondering? Tuesdays at Kates means half priced nachos of your choice. I highly recommended the "Trash Can Nachos," which are topped with chicken fingers, french fries, and everything else and beyond that you could possibly think of. And just when you were thinking that it can't get much better than that, add in a 4 dollar margarita and you've got yourself the perfect meal.

2. Newark Deli & Bagels

Newark Deli and Bagels is the hot place to be on a Saturday or Sunday morning. There are lines and lines of college students and locals waiting to get the best bagels in town. If you are looking for the best hangover cure, NDB is where you need to be on weekend mornings. There is nothing that a fresh bagel and some hash browns can't fix.

3. Playa Bowls

Acai bowls are the hot new trend these days. Luckily, Main Street just opened up a very popular place to get these bowls, Playa Bowls. You choose from countless bases including acai, pitaya, chia pudding, banana and more, but whatever type you get, you are sure to leave satisfied.

4. Santa Fe

Craving some good Mexican food? From 2 dollar tacos on Tuesdays, to delicious and affordable happy hour specials, Santa Fe can help you satisfy that craving.

5. Snap Pizza

If there is one thing that is greater than pizza, that one thing is customized pizza, and that is SNAP. Here you get to invent your own pie, choosing from numerous toppings, sauces, and cheeses. Don't be embarrassed if you end up eating the whole thing, it would honestly be weird if you didn't.

6. El Diablo

Although Main Street does have your typical Mexican fast food restaurants (Chipotle and Qdoba), El Diablo is the real deal. From burritos, to bowls, to quesadillas, there are so many options. El Diablo is hands down one of my all time favorite places to eat on Main.

7. Taverna

In need of an Italian dinner? Taverna is calling your name! From pasta, to pizza, to delicious desserts and more, you can never go wrong with anything that you order here. My go-to meal is the "Calamarata," which is pasta with grilled chicken and spinach in a creamy tomato sauce. Yum!

Whether you are a student at the University of Delaware, a Newark local, or just passing through the area, make sure to pay a visit to all seven of these restaurants. Believe me, they are way too good to be missed.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
