Mamma Mia

So much for me being on top of the blog! Since my last post, sooooo much has happened. The highlights include successfully completing my first year of med school and the first wedding of the 2010 season. Once again, it’s time for me to play bog catch up!

Mothers Day

Since I was pretty busy with school, mom came out to Syracuse to spend the day with me. We started off the morning with a lovely breakfast at Stella’s Diner.

As Richard put it, “Upstate NY is where reliable, consistent weather goes to die.” That’s snow falling from the sky and snow on the cars…in MAY!

Mom and I. They gave ever mom a pink carnation and a chocolate dipped strawberry.

Portions are HUGE at Stella’s. I had a veggie scramble with hash browns and whole wheat toast.

We spent the rest of the day shopping and watching Lifetime movies. We also whipped up a batch of Michele’s Mango Salsa. It was super relaxing and an excellent study break/work break for the both of us.

After mom headed home, I found some unopened mail from the day before. After going through 6 items of junk mail, I almost made the mistake of throwing away this little bit of goodness. I don’t know if i should be proud or extremely embarrassed that I have hit the gold level at Starbucks…
