An amazing baking adventure

I'm sure that the title must have caught your eye, but you are going to have to read the whole thing to see where this adventure is going......

A new KitchenAid and say Holla to the Challah bread

Hey all,
So I got back very recently from Michigan where I had the most amazing time! Visiting Mackinaw island was a lot of fun and I got to ride around the island in a horse-driven carriage.

But the best part was when I got home only to find a box outside my place.

Lazy Saturday in Michigan, Potter Park Zoo, and White batter bread

So here I am in Michigan! And I love it! I'm getting to spend time with my family after the last six months, which have been hectic and tiring.

And although I love to travel and explore, I decided to take a little break on Saturday - I mean, we all need a lazy day, right? A small trip and baking some bread was the answer.

Coming from Yosemite and now off to Michigan

Hey all,
I'm off to Michigan! I'm UBER excited - a well-deserved vacation after a hectic six months of thesis dissertation, medical school tests, graduation, and other things. I'll keep you all posted soon with pictures of my trip to Yosemite - amazing!

Graduation, Cocoa Brownies, and Support the Lucile Packard Children's Hospital! (Pretty please)

Hey all,
So I finally graduated this past Saturday! Boy, was the process long, but it was a lot of fun. My family and friends were there to cheer me on, and I loved every minute of it.

I know I've been lagging with my posts, but now I'm ready to catch up.

Last week, I had a bake sale for the Lucile Packard Children's Hospital as part of a fundraising event to raise money. I had a made a tray of these delectable cocoa brownies here.

New Recipes are coming! I promise!

Hey all,
Like I said in my last post, things have been getting quite stressful as I approach graduation - the final frontier. Today is going to be a hectic day, but at the end of it all, I'm going to be comforting myself with....

That will be unveiled tonight!

Stress, Stress, and more Stress, but friends + Lady Gaga come to the rescue

So as I mentioned in my last post - it's been quite stressful lately. As graduation looms, I've been hectically trying to finish up my graduate work. Did I also mention that I'm leaving behind research to pursue a career as a physician? Some think I'm crazy, but I think I'm just passionate about being able to make a difference. But, it means I have to apply to medical school and that's exactly what I'm doing right now. Between that and hospital shifts that I'm getting ready to start soon, life gets quite stressful.

But I'm lucky. And let me tell you why.....
