Last night was our last night with Dave’s parents before they headed off this morning. We had such a nice visit and last night topped of a week of fun. After exploring Boston all afternoon, we came home and made sushi. Dave’s mom loved it and had fun learning how to make it. His dad….well, [...]

It’s been a busy weekend of family and fun. We’ve packed in a lot since we left the Cape. On Saturday, we headed to Newport, RI. My mother-in-law has a very short list of states she has not visited yet. and RI was on the list. So we decided to hit up one of Rhode [...]

Yesterday was such a beautiful day of family and togetherness. I’d like to do it again after spending today studying…and studying…and studying! We had a great time with both my family and Dave’s parents all together. We are the type to get all gussied up and formal on Thanksgiving, but my mom had a new [...]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! We arrived on the Cape last night and had a wonderful dinner with both of our families together. My mom made up a beautiful table setting, and I helped her make a pre-Thanksgiving feast of tilapia, butternut squash, and rice. We are off very soon to join the rest of the [...]
Printing a Retraction

I really enjoyed a few days with some gluten back in my life again. But, honestly, I’ve had stomach aches everyday. Today, I found out why….. Last week I got my test results from Enterolab, where I had another analysis done to determine whether or not I am sensitive to gluten. Instead of using a [...]
Another Pumpkin-Apple Creation

I have been obsessed lately with a combination of pumpkin and apple. I have microwaved a sliced apple with pumpkin, raisins, cinnamon, and sugar, and topped off my pancakes and my oatmeal. And today, I made an equally amazing creation. Now that I am allowing myself to incorporate some gluten each day, I decided to [...]
On the Move!

I was on the move today and I got a lot done! That makes me relax a bit as I head into this very busy week. I got up early and headed down to the fitness center (after a little blog reading!). The 2 ellipticals were being used, and it was just too nice of [...]
Gluten-y Goodness

After an entire day of studying chemistry, I am wiped. My head is pounding and my stomach is tied in knots. I am really nervous about this test! But as a reward for all my hard work (and because of all of the work I will do between now and Wednesday), I treated myself to [...]
Breaking News!

That sounded urgent, didn’t it?! No, not really, but I to have some news to share that will be interesting to some (and probably not so interesting to others!). I’ll get to that in a bit. First, I’ll start with today… Today has been much better than yesterday. Granted, yesterday did not set the bar [...]
Can’t Wait for Tomorrow

Well, it’s not so much that I can’t wait for tomorrow. It’s more that I can’t wait for today to be over! I am completely wiped out! This could be a really long story, but I won’t bore you. In short, Jack-The-Cat has been constipated since Monday. Yesterday, he started becoming uncomfortable, and last night….well, [...]
