Who has two thumbs and is DONE with residency?
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
I start fellowship on Monday and am SO excited to never have to work another night or 24 hour call again. To celebrate I made some fun cocktails yesterday and we have a PACKED weekend coming up. Today we’re seeing Toy Story 4 in the morning, then hanging out with some friends in the afternoon, and tomorrow my siblings are coming over.
Oh, and there will be pie. OF COURSE. How could there not be??
Here’s what we’ve got on this week’s meal plan!
- grilled portobello mushroom fajitas – these look like a party!!!
- falafel burgers – yuuuuuuummmmmm
- slow cooker loaded baked sweet potatoes – so many of my favorite things here
- southwest white bean veggie burgers – these are smothered in EVERYTHING!
- greek chickpea salad pitas – so great for meal prep lunches!!
Happy eating!

Congratulations!,!!!!! And Enjoy Celebrating!,
Congratulations! I have been reading your blog from the start and it is so wonderful to see the lovely, capable physician, mom, wife and person you are! All the best!
Congratulations!! OMG I’m pretty sure that I’ve been reading your blog since you were at MIT. Is that possible? Did this blog exist when you were an undergrad? Now I feel super old. What an amazing accomplishment.
Haha it did exist then!! I started it in 2009…so a decade ago.
Happy end of residency!
