I have to play catch up with the blog!!! It’s been such a crazy couple of days- we just got back from our Washington D.C. trip, which was so much fun! It was actually much colder than we expected (so I froze!), and the cherry blossoms were “past their prime,” but I still thought it …
Finished with the board exam step 3! No more exams- I’m a fully licensed physician, provided that I passed (fingers crossed- won’t find out for 6-8 weeks!! The agony!!)! And I can finally get back to my life (outside of medicine)- reading interesting articles, exercising, painting, scrapbooking, etc. Chris & I are at his parents’ …
As long as Chris & I have been together, he has loved salty things and I have loved sweet things. To a fault, in both of our cases. He loves french fries to the point of getting pancreatitis (!), and I love ice cream and cupcakes so much that I would happily eat that for …
I had a day…both good and a little sad. Today was the first day of spring that we haven’t had snow around AND we could go outside without boots, jackets, mittens, etc.! It was about 40-ish degrees and sunny from the moment I woke up. I watched the sunrise this morning with a hot cup …
O.M.G. This was an absolutely outstanding dinner- and it was totally unexpected! I highly recommend this one!!! It’s a Cooking Light recipe; I actually followed this one pretty close, so I will just link the recipe! The only change I made was I substituted kidney beans for the ground sirloin, only because I didn’t have …
Ole! We had a fabulous soup for dinner last night that needs some recognition! It took about 30 minutes, start to finish, to make as an added bonus! We topped this soup with a tiny bit of mozzarella (it melts so well for this soup), baked tortillas, sour cream, and avocado chunks = heavenly. It …
Fine. Chris said it first, and I’m admitting it…I’m a granola girl. I make fresh granola every couple of weeks, and it’s really easy, plus it’s amazing on yogurts, cereals, or as a snack by itself! I love fresh, local ingredients, and I try to buy green as frequently as I can. I’m all about …
I made some more homemade bread this evening, along with a fresh batch of granola! This bread recipe is adapted from Cook’s, and it is made specifically to be a sandwich bread. It makes a bread that is crusty on the outside and fluffy and soft on the inside, with a really nice wheat flavor. …
I love grocery shopping!! I really, really love it- it’s so much fun to me!! Apparently, that’s weird…? Didn’t hurt that my hubby surprised me with a dozen roses sitting in the car! 🙂 I love him, so much- he’s so thoughtful, among a million other wonderful things about him. We’ve almost been married 6 …

I cannot wait until I am done with this stupid test! My boards are in less than 2 weeks. I haven’t had any time for writing lately, and I have been planning my getaway from this place when I can take breaks from studying. I am so ready for it to be over, and it’s …
