Bloomed


Our plants are almost fully bloomed, I think. Hopefully, our lemon tree continues its recovery from Catmageddon 2009.

It has been a beautiful couple days in Carolina, although a little warm (highs of about 89). Pan is missing out on the nice weather, finishing up another 30-hour call in the ICU, but only has a few 30hr calls left in her intern year, which is pretty great.

Grilling Season




Finally! Spring has sprung, and extreme heat is ready to be applied to various meats. I just wish we had more time to enjoy grilling or really anything fun to do. Unfortunately, our work schedules have been hectic.

We do have a trip to Kansas next month to look forward to, though. Soon after, Pan is no longer an intern!

A Story

Once upon a time, there was a Meyer Lemon tree and a very curious cat.
And a dustbuster that died.
And so we bought a new vacuum.
The End.

Or, in picture form...
(dumb cat, returning to the scene of the crime...)

Leftovers


A few good things we've made in the past week or so, but haven't had time to blog about:

An avocado red onion mixture thingy that we used for shrimp fajitas. Pretty great.


A well-rounded meal, for once. Raspberry chipotle glazed chicken with sauteed potatoes, stuffing, and corn. Pretty solid.


Best omelet ever. Stuffed with cheese, chorizo, shallots, and the like. Awesome.



Krautspaetzle. I had never had it before, but it was really pretty good, although I think I would add lentils and German sausage next time. The spaetzle itself was great.

Mustard-glazed pork with salad and couscous. I ate like a fat kid that night.

An Oldie but a Goodie Or: We're Still Alive!


That was today's lunch: Roasted poblano peppers, stuffed with spanish rice, black beans, and chorizo. It was awesome.

Yes, we are still mostly alive, but we've been really boring. We've been working crazy hours lately (especially Pan, of course, who is currently on a 30-hour call), so I'm just glad when I don't have to eat something by Marie Callender or something out of a bag. Pan hasn't had time to knit in her roughly one hour of awake time at home per day.

But everything's going well for the most part. Our lemon tree is starting to bear some small fruit and the weather here has been great, in the mid-70s and sunny all last week.

Anyway, Happy Valentine's Day to anyone who manages to still check this after such a long absence.
