While I don't live on the east coast where humidity and high temperatures plague the air, it is still Summer in the Bay Area and when it's Summer people tend to gather around good food with good friends. And that is exactly what we did! We popped the bubbly with some refreshing blueberries and Dave …

C is for Cookie or Cake I guess
What do you do when you are antsy and stuck in the house because you can't leave without a chaperone? You make cookies! I literally just threw together what I thought might work so here are the approximate values to make these cake like cookies: 1 egg, 1/4 sugar, 1/4 cup of whole wheat flower, …
First Day
Remember when I used to leave the house at 7am and get home around 6:30pm and did a whole bunch of stuff in the middle? Well yesterday I went back to doing that stuff in the middle - I went to WORK!! I did not go for a full day but I went in around …
A Restful Evening for the Resting
This is what happens when you wake up early and you are trapped at home with a broken hip and miss your little sister... You send her pictures of your funny faces 😉 Even though I wasn't in an office all week, these past 5 days still felt like the longest week ever. When Friday …
Independence
I am incredibly lucky to have a man in my life who loves all things medicine and has the ability to stay home with me right now and take care of me. As many of you know, crutches  keep both hands pretty busy when you move around and as hard as you try to think …

To Feel Better
Even I have to admit that I have been dealing with this ridiculous accident very very well. And even though I am in high spirits most of the time, there are those moments when I feel reality hit me and I break down. I wont go into the details, but on top of a big …
Sorry I’m Late
Well today's post is very late - but that was because I have been on vacation. Well a STAYCATION. After an 8.5 mile very hot run on Saturday, Dave and I headed to his parent's empty house in Tiburon for the evening. Just a quick drive over the bridge and we were in a tourist …
Wine Country Day Trip
With this map as our guide and our taste buds as our motivation we explored Napa for the day. Dave navigated in and out of fields of grapes to get us to various wineries and we enjoyed every sip, swish and swirl. With this gourmet playground only an hour drive from our apartment we are …
Out for a Walk
After watching a bit of Saturday morning television and a scrumptious breakfast of eggs and toast I not only motivated myself to get to a pilates class, but I also managed to convince Dave to accompany me 🙂 So the two of us got our strength workout in for the day together. We could have …
