Happy New Year Ya'll!

I got back to Vicksburg past night and today Mom and I went downtown where I got three truly awesome shirts at Crown to Heels. I wanted to check out the Catwalk but they had closed early. Later we went to get our nails did during an intense thunderstorm. I now have lovely glittery red fingers and toes. Here's to a healthy, happy, and prosperous 2011!

We went into Athens today to take my grandfather to the doctor. We stopped and had lunch at the Varsity!

Hartwell, GA

I'm staying with my grandparents in Hartwell, GA until Thursday. I hadnt been here in several years. I went running in the country roads near their house last night (which Im sure is always a weird sight for people driving by) and took some pictures of the sunset. There were cows mooing at me to the left.

Quiet Treatment

I took this picture the other day at the hospital. What do you think goes on in there?

Merry Christmas!

I paid $200 yesterday (after finding out at the last minute that I actually didn't have to work on Christmas) to move to an earlier flight today so that I could arrive in time to have dinner at my grandparents' house. So you can imagine how upset I was when my flight was delayed. Delta cancelled 900 flight today for weather and this wouldn't be the first time they'd left me stranded in Memphis.

But all's well that's ends well and I ended up being only an hour later than I'd expected. Those extra four hours were still worth the money- I'm so happy to be home.

Forgotten Cookies

Last night I made Forgotten Cookies, which are delicious little cookies that my mom used to make around Christmas that involve making meringue. Here is me making the meringue. I was reluctant to turn the beater up to the highest speed lest the mixing attachments fly off.


After approximately 15 minutes, Holland got tired of being the backseat driver and told me to move over and let him see the mixer.




...and here he demonstrates his perfect "firm, dry peaks." The cookies turned out delicious - thanks Mom!

skiing!

Holland's dad came in this weekend to ski at Deer Valley's (a ski resort in Park City) opening weekend, so Holland and I went up today to visit and ski on our one day off this week. Here is Holland enjoying a chocolate chip cookie and tea at the ski lodge afterwards. It was a great Sunday!

Sorry I haven't been updating as much this month - the VA has taken over my life! Being a resident is most pleasant than being an intern but in some ways more stressful because there is a lot more responsibility. A lot of interesting things have happened in the past week - last Sunday we got the biggest snow I've seen since I moved to Salt Lake City. I had to dig my car out to leave the hospital at night, then dig it out AGAIN in the morning. Literally. With a shovel.

Anyway, Holland and I went on a little outing last night to the Korean restaurant, which was perfect because it has been freezing outside and Korean food is sooo warm. I've already shown ya'll pictures of the lovely food there - here is another picture of something interesting that I noticed while we were paying for our meal.
