Sugar Showpieces..

Last week in class we made our sugar showpieces.. At the beginning of the week I was not excited about them at all they seemed like they were going to be quite dumb but they ended up being pretty cool. Mine is the yellow and purple one. They others are from a couple of girls in my class.

I even took it home and it made it all the way home without even breaking. I was quite impressed with myself. :)

Redskins Game!!

Phil and I went to the Redskins game a couple weeks ago when they played the New Englad Patriots. It was a lot of fun. It was suppose to rain but it ended up being pretty nice. It was quite sticky with all the humidity but eh I've gotten quite used to it. And the Patriots won.. Which I was very excited about because well I'm a big fan of the patriots but since I was going with Phil and well he's a huge REDSKINS fan I dressed the part and also we were in Redskins territory..

MAD AIR!!

I was just browsing through some old pictures today and I found this picture and it is by far one of my favorite pictures so I wanted to share it with everyone.. My friend Amy and I were in DC with a few friends and we just decided to start taking jumping photos and well it took us about 20 tries but we eventually got this killer picture..

Fondant Cakes..

This week in school we did fondant cakes and I think they turned out pretty well.. I took a few pictures of some of my favorites and then mine of course..

American Idol!!

For my birthday this year.. For part of my present Stacie and Kenny bought me two tickets to see American Idol Live on Tour so I took my friend Marva.. It was so much fun.. We made T-shirts and everything.. They were so amazing.. Even better than the show. The top ten each did solo performances and then they did a few group numbers and a few duet things it was so much fun.. I am pretty sure that Adam Lambert has the best stage presence of anyone and he's got it going on... My favorites are Alison, Adam and Kris..

Petits Fours

This last week in class we made Petits Fours.. which are basically small desserts. We made so many different kinds. I am having such a blast learning all these new things..
