Nutty Irishman Mocha and a bagel and egg sandwich. Just what I needed after being awake for 26 hours and then only getting 2 hours of sleep. Thanks to the bf’s drunk roommates coming in and yelling for hours. Ugh.

But it’s time to finally see this fella graduate! :)

Yay for my mom getting her custom kitchen. Boo for eating bread and peanut butter all the time.

For those of you who have been to an Old Chicago restaurant…my roommate from college and I are working on the beer tour (that’s 110 beers for those of you who don’t know). This is my prize for getting to my 70th beer. It’s only taken me 2 years to get this far…haha! If only there was an Old C’s in MD, I’d totally be on that Wall of Foam by now!

A feast for my dad’s birthday! Yum yum! Honey baked ham, crab cakes, corn pudding, and roasted asparagus. Now I’m filled to the brim.

Funny how things work out…

So I had accepted a spot in Johns Hopkins’ MSPH Human Nutrition program. Just the masters program, I didn’t get into their RD internship (they only accept 6!). I was bummed, but I figured what the heck, it’s Hopkins. Well the next day, THE NEXT DAY, I got into UNC Chapel Hill’s MPH/RD program. So after a week or so of fretting, I finally decided to accept! 

I’m moving to NC in the fall! And I’m going to become a dietitian! So excited for this grand adventure!! :)

Tasty bruschetta. Goat cheese with a little cream cheese and olive oil spread on a baguette, with tomatoes, basil, and olive oil. Delish.
