From the food perspective, not a lot has been going on. I've been eating more than I've been cooking. (So says the scale, anyway.) Today I am making a batch of yogurt, with a new cup of starter. Not too exciting.
However, the news of the season is that I am changing jobs. I'll still be working as a doctor, but closer to home, with better hours, and only part time. I'll be doing something completely different and, once I get settled, I plan to go back to school and learn some new things. (More on that when it happens, of course.) I hope to finally have my weekends back and to be home for dinner almost every night. And to do a whole lot more cooking and baking. And sleeping! As time had gone on, the job I had began to consume more and more of my time. I miss being home with my family. I have mixed feelings about leaving, though. I have worked 18 years at the same place, first as a resident, then as a moonlighter, then part time, then full time as the director of the pediatric emergency department. I shall miss my colleagues, the patients, the type of medicine that I do there. And, yes, I shall miss the adrenaline rush that comes from not knowing what is coming next, the chaos of a busy emergency department. But this is the right thing for me.
There is a different sort of adrenaline rush to doing something new, and I'm going to enjoy the ride.

Hope it all works out for everyone. I never tried making yogurt.
