Last night was such fun! We have friends who were in town for just one night, so we joined them for a yummy sushi dinner. We went to Daikanyama, a Japanese restaurant in Lexington, MA. We had to wait for a table for quite some time…the restaurant is really small. And then the food took [...]

Tonight’s post will be a quickie. I am just finishing up my studying for the day and I have a handsome falla and 2 cuddly kitties waiting for me on the couch! But before I put my feet up for the night, I want to share with you my very yummy and very simple dinner [...]

Dinner was the highlight today! (And it would have been the highlight even if the bar hadn’t been set exceptionally low with a day of chemistry and statistics!) But I can’t tell you about it yet. I am writing a guest post and when it is all set, I will direct you there! For now, [...]

When I met up with Melissa the other night at Whole Foods, I finally found the elusive kabocha squash! I was so excited! I keep reading about it and have been looking for it each time I go to the store. It took a special trip to Whole Foods. I brought it home and added [...]
Fun with Friends

What a great weekend! I’m sorry to see it go. I’ve posted repeatedly about how it’s been hard for me, especially as an adult, to meet new friends. I had one of my very best friends from college visit last weekend…but she was coming from Mexico City! That’s a little far for regular get-togethers. It [...]

It’s a rainy day here in Boston and the perfect day to get into the Halloween spirit! Today we hauled out the big box that contains a mish mash of holiday decorations. Just after Halloween last year, my mom bought me a bunch of fun decorations on sale. So it was exciting to open up [...]

When I started this blog, I had 2 goals. One, to document this very exciting time in my life. And two, to meet some new friends! I have always been quite shy and meeting new people has always been hard for me. Even when I have worked with great people, I haven’t become close friends [...]
A Day of Squash

Today was all about squash! I used to hate squash. My mom rarely made it because I wouldn’t eat it. Now, I am in love with it! Butternut is my favorite, but since I made the decision to cut out gluten, I have been making a lot of spaghetti squash to stand in for my [...]

I disappeared for a couple of days! But I’m back. I had one of my college roommates stay with my Sunday night. It was so great to catch up. After so much frustration and sadness going into the weekend, I had such a great weekend. Quality time with friends and with my husband are more [...]
