Hello! I’m Dani, a first second third year medical student. Medicine is my passion and it has been since I was 5 years old. Yet, some part of me wishes I could also be a baker, a web designer, a photographer, a seeker of adventures and world traveler. Since I could not realistically do all these things as most of my time is currently occupied by molecules, cells and neuronal pathways, I have decided to start this blog. This is my way of pushing myself to explore life outside the classroom, and to revive the much forgotten creative part of my brain.
In med school we take tests every two weeks, usually on a Monday, so naturally, the weekend after a test is the most relaxed and cherished by med students and we endearingly refer to this valuable time of sanity as the Off-Weekend.
The challenge: I, with the help of my wonderful husband John (also a medical student), will try my best to create, enjoy, laugh, travel, taste, pleasure read and observe during Off-Weekends in order to balance the massive consumption of factoids that goes on during On-Weekends. This blog is our witness!

Hi darling, so sweet to hear you are making banana pancakes, tell mom to make sure she uses plenty of honey. I love you!
Hi,
Just wanted to tell you that I love your web site and love your recipes. Have tried the black beans and rice, pork and a few others. By the way, I work with your mother and she is great. I don’t know how you manage to have time for all that you do.
Gloria thank you so much for your kind words. I’m really happy you have liked some of the recipes from the blog. Yes!, med school keeps me pretty busy but not busy enough to keep me from wandering into the kitchen from time to time with some type of craving, a camera and a curious spirit. Time does go fast when you are having fun!
