just seems like yesterday that i started a new part of my life and moved down to the "city of roses", portland, or. new beginning for me for i never lived on my own. i am also almost done pursuing my dream and finishing culinary school. has it been a year already?

i feel so confident that this is what i want to do. i started working at the this cupcake bake shop "bliss" and decorated for a 1st birthday. made a pink ladybug and wrote on another. i saw the mom's expression when she picked it up. pure happiness. thats what i like to share. that joy. i know that cupcake is going to be eaten and destroyed, but just for that moment, i might of made someones day.

so please, ask me to make something for you and i will try my best to please your wishes. makes me feel good and its fun.

just made baklava. next is strawberry shortcake. oh the possiblities!

ps: (if you want to make it, i got it form here. super easy! HELLO LOVER!) dont forget to show me pictures!

my brother has moved in and it has been really fun. except for when they totally ignore me becuase the boys are wrestling or playing our indoor mini basketball and causing a riot. other then that, living with two boys is awesome. plus i have my sister and vernon. the abad siblings are all in oregon now! let's celebrate.

me and jeff are still happily together. 4 years and still strong. its going to be one year since we moved in together and watching that video reminds me that even though we live paycheck to paycheck, we sometimes have off schedules (where i work at night and he opens), and we do fight just a little smidgen, we L-O-V-E each other.

yayee for the years past!
