“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? Your playing small does not serve …
We returned Sunday night from our trip to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, and Texas. Whew- what a busy week!! So first, the Punta Cana/ Dominican vaycay. We were invited by Hubby’s residency, since they hosted a series of conferences during our week there. We had conferences every day 8am- noon and at 5pm. We had …
Ha! I know I’ve written lately a couple of times about how I’ve “lost my mind.” Interestingly enough, The New York Times ran an article about forgetfulness, the different types, what it might represent, and some thoughts on how to stave it off. Here’s the article on Forgetfulness.
I am the most relaxed I’ve been in months, maybe years. I’m on Neuroradiology this month, and I don’t have to round on patients early in the morning, I don’t have to keep a thousand tiny details of each patient in my head simultaneously, I don’t have to take even half as much call, and …
This morning, I was inspired. I saw the gorgeous sunrise- and it reminded me quite a bit of a peach! So, I made fresh peach scones! I adapted a recipe found from Cook’s Illustrated for Blueberry Scones (which I’m told is very good) to make them whole wheat and processed sugar free! I do love …

Cooking with alcohol can be a little tricky, but I think there isn’t an easier way to add depth and complexity to a dish than a splash of wine. I’ve pour dessert liquors over ice cream and added rum to my Jamaican Coconut Lime Banana Bread; I sprayed brandy over a gingersnap-encrusted Christmas ham. I’ve …
I have no idea what is going on with me lately, but I have simply lost my brain. I’ve misplaced it. If I am doing something not work related, I may or may not have any recollection of what I’ve done or where I’ve placed something. This has been going on for a couple of …
So, a quick confession: I cannot (absolutely CANNOT!) turn down a cookie. They are my biggest weakness. And they have 2 dozen fresh cookies sent up to our resident’s lounge every single day, in 6 varieties! What’s a girl to do?? I can’t eat them everyday- this leads down a road I’m not really wanting …

As a follow up to my last post, I would like to just make a retraction. Ibuprofen (as I found out the very very hard way) is toxic to dogs. Little Miss Sassy was up puking for hours and hours that night- it was absolutely awful. We learned that evening, dogs don’t metabolize ibuprofen the …
My poor Sassy girl’s foot is broken!! 🙁 She is so little (she’s only 4 pounds!), and she gets underfoot so often that Mr. Handsome nicknamed her “Sassy Underfoot.” Yesterday, she got under Chris’ foot, and her tiny itty bitty baby foot bone snapped! She actually walked on it fine last night, but this morning, …
