I’ve got a pile-up of products to share. As usual, some were good, some were okay, and some were losers. 1. Zing chocolate peanut butter bar Kyle stole this from me, but took a photo (which means he knew he was in the for-Elise-only bar stash). In any event, here is his review: Zing bar was good. Tastes like a tiger’s milk bar (for anyone that matters to) but better and not as chalky. Fluffy enough to be chewy but hearty enough to be satiating. 2. Healthy Surprise delivery service These services are popping… Read more >

Knowing my friends are frolicking in the sun while I’m begging patients to go on walks and administering suppositories…it’s tough. It doesn’t matter HOW much you love your job, when the weekend arrives and others are not working and you are, it’s just a bummer. Holiday weekends are especially difficult. My three day weekend was spent in the hospital. Wah wah. Ordinarily, I avoid 3-in-a-rows like I avoid C. diff, but knowing I was getting Memorial Day pay (time and a half) and the weekend differential made it sort-of okay. After all my income has… Read more >
