We're seriously loving the break from the constant snow we experienced in Albany for the past 4 winters. Colorado is full of 70 degree surprises and we've been doing our best to enjoy them! A few of these photos are from autumn, but we've been able to enjoy some fantastic winter hikes. We're looking forward to the next couple of months until spring!<br />

Happy New Year!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've successfully completed the first 6 months of intern year in my pediatric residency in Colorado. It's been quite a journey, but I've learned a ton and am truly enjoying life as a doctor!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaSvvKJ7u6TSVsOAkvkb5A-_rZSSG_0w7hj4liV45TUpW5IRhbbRxVNeF_P2gmpMN6uB8b2YDrOSq7D_ByQs-wie0LVyUsin_J4OIV3hTBebV5EnopdUzd4bDZA3qFS3_USoTPb0-2PTE/s1600/chalkboard+eat1b.jpg" height="640" width="516" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That being said, I haven't had as much time to craft or do photography as I would like... and even less time to blog about these creative outlets. I figure I can still share a bit, even if it's not as timely as I would like.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Back in Albany, I <a href="http://simplyalbany.blogspot.com/2012/02/chalkboard-paint-projects.html" target="_blank">painted a piece of poster board with chalkboard paint</a>. It basically sat untouched in our apartment on the East Coast, but here in Denver we have space above our kitchen cabinets perfect for a chalkboard display.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found this great quote by none other than Julia Child. Using Handy George font, I created a Word document, printed it. cut out the words, and covered the backs of the paper with chalk. I placed the words on the chalkboard background, and used a chopstick to rub over the letters as a means of transferring the chalk to the background. Then I removed the paper and touched up the chalk writing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's a pretty simple project, but I do love seeing the sign in the kitchen as we prepare meals!</div>

While planning our trip, we learned that three-quarters of the way through South Dakota, there exists the world's only Corn Palace. You can imagine our excitement upon realizing it was only a short detour off of I-90.</div>

It turns out there isn't a whole lot to see between Seattle and Albany. I've done the drive before (<a href="http://simplyalbany.blogspot.com/2010/07/from-seattle-to-albany-beginning.html" target="_blank">here</a>), so we tried to make things a little more interesting by stopping at a few notable landmarks - even though it took us a bit out of the way.<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKuQjyx7hrHREWYKl773lqZvFldJnDUJSdDwmZ1wuO4Ehi5nd5UkAwNFq7gqweZnreD-QaTyKby30PKXiRzqEIvrHG9FHXxbqdU7UXJ4HuHUlPa_UP4DDylPkI3RqQwZ6XETHNH3tVfBo/s840/Lisa+Sarah+Roadtrip+1.jpg" /></div>

Less than 48 hours after our sister was married, Lisa (the youngest) and I embarked on one epic roadtrip across the country to get me back to Albany and her to Boston.</div>

This post is long overdue, but working 80 hour weeks really interferes with blogging. Fortunately, I'm <em>loving</em> pediatric residency here in Colorado. My coworkers are amazing, the attending physicians are brilliant, the nurses, PAs, NPs, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, etc are top-notch, and everyone is so down-to-earth. I think the 300 sunny days a year combined with endless opportunities to get outside do a person good.</div>

Anyway, I thought I'd share some photos from the Seattle trip we took back in April/May for my sister's wedding. </div>

You may have noticed that I've changed the name of my blog to "Simply Sarah M.D." I thought about changing it to "Simply Denver," but who knows where we will end up in the next season of our lives, and I will always be Dr. Sarah - no matter where I'm practicing medicine.</div>

Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't believe it's been two months since my last post. Time is flying by, and so much has happened since February! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b><br /></b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><b>The biggest news is that I matched to pediatric residency in Denver! </b></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We are so excited to be moving from Albany to Colorado at the end of May. It's a fantastic program in a city full of life. We can't wait! I might be changing the name of this blog to "Simply Denver," but I'm not sure yet... thoughts?</div>

Happy almost March! I don't know about you, but I'm very much looking forward to some warmer weather and less snow. It's absolutely gorgeous in Albany today... we hit 54 degrees! Andrew and I went for a walk through the snow and it seemed like <i>everyone</i> was out enjoying the unseasonably high temps. Unfortunately, it's not going to last long as we'll be dipping back into the 20's this week. In other news, I apologize for the long hiatus. Over the past month, I've been putting in close to 80 hours a week at the hospital on the pediatrics floor. It's been incredibly rewarding and affirming that pediatrics is absolutely the career for me!<br />
<br />
Anyway, on to the project!<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRiiw1Ob4Ssv4-VB4BtoOZ7XU5n2HsrDB26-ANU_Id1yVU5MC4ObyPP-Jy_Exg8ZCR0qg2Hyn3_lukuZp8_oPBf0U64MqOUprMe8Bb-EuFHdPLLYyLDzJhz63GWxNkE_lB9PjHAvYC_gg/s840/smile+4b.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Over the summer, my grandma gave me some embroidery hoops that she isn't planning on using. I don't do cross stitch, but I figured I could come up with something creative.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSi5PvIxVR5GqDU5EASs1rlhp79qEFjL6pUrmBsKbbf1aT4Gfne_4vwUPiEgeZ3PflkDV1bCpzSPHy_zEomS1eLnXYuj_3M6j2z6YyGSHx4AhqfuOArAlwXlbPodRzMc1tMDLe96O_bwQ/s1600/line+2.jpg" height="15" width="400" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I decided to browse the internet for a retro camera image and settled on <a href="http://www.123freevectors.com/retro-photo-camera-free-vector-illustration/#.UwkMdWJdWSp" target="_blank">this one</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMHQ3GZhArR264jWwJ4sAyuQ6kzeycHlieKC_Q3_CLnEDEUPkh_4f7lMHrD1fFYPhEVFE_vdkF7O2mpsFK7yYSOcKeHmnqd67rvOFYYazcKbzSQRECME2-FWxvcOntRajZHhj2YMDRYqw/s840/smile+1.jpg" /><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I converted it to black and white, added "smile," printed it out, and taped it to the back of some cross stitch fabric that I had placed in my hoop.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1GxKtNB583mx0sn3xANRGDKbY2CVL9pgtriDWhPjr2VyzWBpoCRIuF50NuXw8vbDZ_w362mNm8S4kMMDWhnM5ordQUzffUuqfyC70q4Fue16R16eXX8klIpabjJq3xL0eP_cErZojiPU/s840/smile+2.jpg" /><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Holding the hoop up to the window, I traced the camera image onto the fabric.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieEQ300PIhMdMhpp4_xvcX7m3VzpUph_l-bmDIkvt8_Io1ulH8sbY1mZdtfk3N07C3SCREM4Lzz942iarfbGXg7HaWMFtbNOdkI2aM9XTsnFNk_BuD6JMvbT07E8zwuKM8XiD1OaRT9Rg/s840/smile+3.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Next, I used double thick black sewing thread to stitch over the pattern. As you can tell, it's definitely not perfect.<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOcrwyfzRUiO-W-ap14egF9nFkVVQMpa-wjV21-bK9yQxJdwt5UmDrpSLut9Zdtf3jvCqbXPyUjH02WJB2ziN1XZ-ma0bROpLoQ2EuVcVtxTAQWf3NuCM8OW8t-SrS3dRv4oKFD7ibBwQ/s840/smile+4.jpg" /><br />
<br />
(As I said, I don't really do embroidery... and I was in a bit of a hurry since this project was really me procrastinating on some major med school work that needed to get done.)<br />
<br />
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJ1Zq0LA2CtSfoDZ0JthqPHRTTlRcfSfJL2XOYDb6np_fFtzDhqUjCbEjKso37cvwYNRtEoWvTUeGiuVeAQyT_1eegy72J1RuszFPDq9McAZ3XpV-XmNpelDjmI-j8IeZ3qLpU2E4x6UY/s840/smile+6.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even with the imperfections, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. I hung it on the wall with the other embroidery hoops Grandma had given me. I placed a photo from a family snow adventure in the larger of the three hoops, and left the tiny one blank. I'm still thinking about what to do with that one, but seeing a blank canvas on the wall reminds me to keep the creative juices flowing regardless of how busy life can get sometimes.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Also, I know that spring doesn't officially start for about a month, but I'm <i>really</i> longing for it now, hence the Mark Twain spring quote. If you're looking for another easy project, <a href="http://simplyalbany.blogspot.com/2012/04/turn-your-eyes.html" target="_blank">this is how I made the tiny burlap print.</a><br />
<br />

Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, I definitely missed a couple of Fridays, but that's okay. I've had a great few weeks enjoying time with family and friends, so my Friday Photo blogging has taken a back burner until today.</div>

I returned back Albany to find winter in full force. It's not my favorite, but I'm doing my best to enjoy the good parts. I like snow if I don't have to drive in it. I don't mind the cold temperatures if I can be cozy inside with a warm drink, but I am not a fan of frozen nose hairs. I actually really enjoy the sunny days that accompany Albany winters.</div>

This photo is from our first winter on the East Coast. The snow does make for a peaceful photo excursion around the neighborhood. Definitely planning on more winter photography again this year!<br />

A couple of weeks ago, we went to NYC to visit some friends. I flew in from Los Angeles and Andrew picked me up at night in the pouring rain. Unfortunately, I had acquired a cold virus somewhere along my travels and was not feeling up to par. Still, we made the most of our brief visit to the city.</div>

<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;">
Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you are enjoying your holiday season and preparing for Christmas! I love this season for the extra music and baking. In terms of music, if you're looking for some new Christmas music, our church is putting together an<a href="http://terranovachurch.org/advent/" target="_blank"> Advent Album</a>. My hubby and I are in one of the church bands and have really enjoyed playing and singing with these folks! Find the free downloads here: <a href="http://terranovachurch.org/advent/">http://terranovachurch.org/advent/</a><br />

Along with plenty of singing, I've been doing a little baking recently. I'm still in the midst of interview season for Pediatric Residency, but I had a dream about these Cinnamon Yum Yums that my mom makes every year, so naturally I asked my sister to send (text) me the recipe.</div>

Well, it's the Friday before Christmas and I can't wait to be headed home to see family in just a couple of days! </div>

This Friday photo is from way back in 2004. Growing up, our family had the tradition of going up to the mountains to cut down our own Christmas tree.<br />
<br />
Most years it rained, but occasionally we had to brave the snow to find our perfect noble fir.<br />

Not much describes Christmas in the Northwest better than rain. And a slight chill to the air, but not cold enough for snow. It's kind of awesome to go outside and not have your nose hairs freeze...</div>

Where are you spending Christmas this year? Staying close to home or traveling to see family? Hope you're getting excited!</div>

While we explore NYC and the famous Rockefeller Tree, I think back to the little tree lights we put on our favorite "purple plum tree" in Seattle. Complete with moss, lichen, and all things PNW (Pacific Northwest).</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, this is the culmination of my Apple Adventure Trilogy (<a href="http://simplyalbany.blogspot.com/2013/11/apple-adventures-part-1-orchard.html" target="_blank">Part 1</a>, <a href="http://simplyalbany.blogspot.com/2013/11/apple-adventures-part-2-apple-sauce.html" target="_blank">Part 2</a>). Obviously we're ending with the best part.<br />
<br />
The Pie.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have never made a pie completely from scratch. Usually, I buy the pre-made crust, which I love. This time, however, I had added the culinary endeavor to my <a href="http://simplyalbany.blogspot.com/2013/08/9-months-til-graduation-bucket-list.html" target="_blank">Bucket List</a>, so I was really left with no other option.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmz-nHc06vtIVbbv4J7br4pC94D7RgpfOmVxsYnooiwa9AkaUJ0zHLjFtjAmikEjITOMNu0rgWpx_xLBpdQY3vTkt0rIY38rvC-Hfz4-KV0mdG5scxXnXeYfAh3Q5zp8SGexVCB8PkZvw/s840/apple+pie+5.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was nervous. There was a lot on the line. First Homemade Pie Ever.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My husband knew what I was planning on doing and he thoroughly encouraged my creative efforts. The thing is, Andrew will eat just about anything, so I did have some confidence going into this.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhT1DCUxg_FoPu1YJwGy4VV0uiNqwXqoXg3wxFo38KScjTdLxQ-hr21ZT9wLw2cQzfCK2GABgN8slhHYAXlFH__ngmF4s_1frxaMKB6PhlqymDVM0FIzPf01RKZw6XwPKJGB_NC5DwbHwY/s840/apple+pie+9c.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I started by perusing <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/sarahpinney/" target="_blank">Pinterest</a>. I really should get the family recipes from my Great-Aunt Nancé because her pies at Thanksgiving are seriously the best. The Best. Anyway, onto my own pie adventure.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I ended up using <a href="http://www.gimmesomeoven.com/how-to-make-a-lattice-pie-crust/" target="_blank">this recipe</a> for the crust, and it was super easy. It turned out AMAZING. Flakey, shortbready, and delicious.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used <a href="http://www.gimmesomeoven.com/the-best-apple-pie/" target="_blank">this recipe</a> for the filling. I "doctored" it up a bit - adding a little more cinnamon and nutmeg.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHo3q52dIhrO-oSdSTx7aaWGsxSfk09wBhmCpVsP10TJCJ5HvHwbZFwlglbjH4e2K3VmQJVhyphenhyphenAt8JazaBjbxIlBvbiVtZzfEWz60LFvjC-90XwV0-QzXbQRMt6f4In1HzAQ0KljJRCsYQ/s840/apple+pie+7b.jpg" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It turned out great! I'd say my first homemade pie completely from scratch was a success. And so would my hubby. Thankful for the great crust and filling recipe from <a href="http://www.gimmesomeoven.com/the-best-apple-pie/" target="_blank">Gimme Some Oven</a>!<br />
<br />
This pie would be a delicious addition to your holiday parties!</div>

Happy Day-After-Thanksgiving! Many people refer to this as "Black Friday," but to be honest, I've never been one to jump on those black Friday deals. The idea of setting an alarm clock to get up before the crack of dawn on one of my few days off, to stand in line in the cold, to hopefully score some "deal" just isn't appealing. I would rather spend the morning continuing to digest my tasty turkey dinner from the night before. And decorating for Christmas, of course.<br />

For the next few Fridays, my Friday Photo posts will be some of my favorites about Christmas. Today, think about the smells of Christmas. I love the smell of needles on Christmas Trees. My family has a tradition of going up to the mountains to cut down a tree. Tromping around the forest, looking for the perfect 13 foot noble fir is quite the adventure. </div>

I'm not especially looking forward to winter, but I am excited for more adventures and photography... let's just hope it waits until January to start snowing! I've got quite a few flights around the country in these next few months and snow delays are not my favorite.
