I am a medical student and I love road biking.
4/29/2009 - Wow, I just got picked as chef of the day and realized how boring my page is! For anyone who is interested, I got married last fall and the husband loves this website too, because it gets him fed amazing meals!! I am about to graduate med school (1 day left, crazy!) I will then be headed to Omaha for internal medicine residency. I can't say I will have much more time to post recipes and reviews, but as cooking is my stress reliever, I will be relying heavily on Zaar. Thanks for everyone's great recipes!!
