Wednesday, January 16, 2008. Two weeks into the second semester and already I like it much better than the first. It's alot to ask someone to move to a new country, find an apartment, meet new people and start studying medicine at the same time! Sothis semester I only have one of those things to focus on. All the extra time, with less worrying.that means time to get back into shape for some short triathlons! Labels: Semester # 2. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Living in the desert.

Monday, May 25, 2009. Garlic spaghetti.just plain spaghetti, olive oil, lots of garlic, pepper, a shake of chili flakes to wake me up, and the less traditional nutritional yeast! I am ready to go now, though I may need a nap soon. :-). Quick and Easy But Delicious. 4 to 5 glasses of wine = fewer brain cells. I saw a t-shirt at the Kona Brewfest that said "brain calls are evil and must be killed.". Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Living in the desert. View my complete profile.

Saturday, February 09, 2008. The problem with making energy bars that are so good is that we eat them all in a few days. A few while biking.the rest with coffee, for breakfast, for a midnight snack. There is so much cheap and delicious dried fruit available in Israel that it's easy to pack the bars full of figs, dates, raisins, apricots and cranberries. Here's the basic recipe:. 2 cups of dried fruit: chop, not too finely, but to a size that's easy to eat. 125 cups of nuts: roughly chopped.

Wednesday, May 21, 2008. I have been dreaming about getting a pair of Crocs for almost 2 years. Why haven't I gotten a pair yet? Because I am horribly indecisive and would never be able to choose between all the juicy colors and to make matters worse there are now even more styles. I rememeber when I first saw someone wearing them, I think around 2003, I laughed at them, but secretly wanted to steal the shoes and chew on them. They are so soft and squishy and colorful. BUTI still want some of my own!

Saturday, June 14, 2008. The picture above is from the Physicians for Human Rights clinic in Tel Aviv. The clinic sees mainly illegal workers and refugees. I was lucky to volunteer before the clinic closed its doors in protest of the government doing nothing to help with the growing refugee problem and their assumption that PHR would take care of things. There are now thousands of refugees from Africa, many fleeing from Darfur by way of Egypt. Gas station in Taibe where me met and had really good coffee.

Friday, June 06, 2008. Here is my mountain bike getting ready to go out for her first ride in a very long time! She has been through alot of abuse.Mountain Men, 3 Xterra Maui's, 1 Battle of the Saddle (at 6000ft! And numerous rides across sand, lava (Pahoehoe and A'a), through Kaloko rainforest which actually just hides the sharp lava. You can see her scars.and I have plenty as well. Actually I'm a little sad that the K-shaped scar on my shin from Kaloko is starting to fade. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
