Frosting is Yummy



Hookay. Typing is wierd with a bandaide. I cut my finger on something....I dunno what...


Anyways, CAKE!

Heather and I made a chocolate cake from a box. With frosting from a can. AND SOME HOMEMADE FROSTIN'! Furreal.

She made frosting flowers on my fork (we had made too much).

It was yummy.
We made it last Wednesday.
And had HUGEEEE slices.
We had halved the frosting recipe, but ended up making it all.
We ended up just using cream for the frosting because my 1% milk made it way too runny.
(i.e. the bottom border=sucky)
So, this was her first time piping on decorations.
We had a blast.

AP Scores

Hoookay! I found out my AP Scores by phone today.

My grandma let me call. It's eight bucks-but worth it! They lost my scores last year.

I'm impatient.

I feared they'd vanish again.





*drumroll*


I got a Five on AP US History! Huzzah!


A Three on AP Bio (I thought I failed it)!


And a FIVE ON ENG LANG&COMP!

OHMIGAWSH YAY!


I had never got a FIVE before! I need to bake a cake in celebration.

I'm so excited.

Dang.

I could dance.

I did dance.

With my grandma.

And jumped out of the chair.

You see, nobody got a five on the exam last year at my school.

I feeeeel smaaaaart.

:D



Roy and I. Hugging in glee. Okay----I made him pose.
But still.
Even my fish is happy.
:D

Baked goods '07-'08

This is a boat cake I made with Heather and Brandi. It was covered in Reese's Pieces. Sadly the back of the boat...I dunno the technical term....sank....and there were no icebergs, just gravity.:( It was yummmyyythough.



Apple Pie from Thanksgiving. Okay. It was really good. I ate most of it since nothing was altered for my non-meat-eating-ness. It was Grandma Ople's pie from AllRecipies.com. I made the recommened alterations. Used frozen crust. Still yummy. Now I want more.


Below is the picture of my pumpkin pie. Not my faorite but I had to make a funny picture.:)












Bare with me, I'm still getting the whole, blog layout deal-y-o. So, yeah, it will have a lot of gaps. But doesn't that make it endearing?:)

These are my cinnamon buns off AllRecipies.com.

I love them.

My friends don't have patience for yeast.

Too bad.

More for me.

Just kiddin'

Later I made Paula Deen's rolls. SO GOOD! They're probably a thousand times more unhealthy for you. But who cares? I don't!

August 2007 to June 2008 A Quick Briefing







My new puppy, Roy. Sleeping. I got him last Saturday.






Track in the Spring. This was our 4x800 team at Districts. This is actually after the distance medley, I think. I ran the last leg, the mile.










Memorial DAy weekend at SeaWorld Orlando with mi madre! We got to touch a penguin! So cool!







Kitty found me in late August. She just turned up on my porch. She comforted me when I missed my Prissy. A great kittttty.












My tiny cross country team. :( We finished the season with three girls. It was so fun though!






Me and Heather at the Disney Track-Thingy. Kinda mocking my need to always find a bathroom.


They had nice bathrooms, what can I say?











I got my fastest mile time here, 6:36. Yay.






















My first time running the two mile, I believe.:)
































Homecoming! This is kinda out of sequence, but whatever. I LOVED my dress. So poofy. So pink. So sparkley. I felt like a Princess! And my grandma, of course.






























My other puppy, Teddy. I got him with Roy. I can't get their pics together, oh well.





Slacker-age

Okay. I've slacked off. For about a year. I had a good reason though.
My Prissy passed, my junior year was hectic, and Chicky was attacked.
But now it's okay.
The fig trees are full of figs and I have two new beautiful baby boy poms.
And I'm back into baking.
I've already made ganache this summer, it was exciting.:)
Heather and I are going to bake another cake.
So I'll post everything I baked this year.....
