Chocolate Bread Pudding and a Happy Mothers Day!

I love my mom. 

Seriously, she is my best friend. I know a lot of people who aren't very close to their family and it always makes me sad. I've been so blessed to have an amazing supportive family who I can honestly say are my best friends as well.

Happy Sunday everyone! 

Can ya'll believe that Easter is exactly one week from today? 

I honestly can't, it's sneaking up on me. I'm used to it being in April close to my birthday, this whole Easter being in March is throwing me off. 

I'm excited though.

Boozy Mini Pecan Pie Cupcakes

You know those moments in school when you take a test and you think to yourself, "I totally aced that test!" Only to get the test back and find out you failed.

Yeah, those times suck.

Lucky for me though that didn't happen this time. This time I got my midterm test back and found out I got a 98!

Bailey's Irish Cream Cheesecake

Oh the last weekend of spring break....

The last couple of days to enjoy blissful freedom before it's back to the books once again and the constant stressful knot in your stomach resumes...

I don't know about ya'll but i'm not ready to go back yet. How about we get just one more week off. Yes?

I love culinary school.

I know, it's only my semester doing it, and i'm only taking 2 of the basic classes I need, but honestly so far it's been great.

Dirty Irish Cupcakes

March has arrived!

Caramel Corn

I know, I know.

New Year and Rustic Italian Bread

Happy new year! 

I hope everyone had a safe and fun new years eve and day! I didn't have any big plans but I ended up going to my brothers apartment with my other brother and some friends. Nothing to fancy, just hanging out and breaking out the ole acoustic guitar and singing songs at the top of our lungs. Yeah, it was fun.

On new years millions of people make resolutions they want to accomplish during the new year, but according to studies hardly anyone ever finishes what they want by the time the new year rolls around. That got me thinking though of the resolutions I had made last year, and surprisingly, I actually accomplished most of them! 

Merry Christmas!

I would just like to wish everyone a very Merry and blessed Christmas and holiday. I hope everyone is safe and warm with their family creating fond memories and enjoying each others company. May this new year bless everyone and let it bring good things to each and every one of us.

No recipes with any of these, yet, but here are some pictures of the afternoon feast we had at my house today. I am still recovering from it, it'll take me quiet a while to work everything off, but hey Christmas only comes once a year, why not go all out?

Pumpkin Pancakes

This semester I had an early class at 7:30 two days a week. Surprisingly I preferred those days over the ones where my classes started at 10:30. I went to class half asleep but when it was over with I was done with the day. The whole rest of my day was free!

Cranberry Scones

What do you want to be when you grow up little girl?

That question comes up a lot when you're young. From the time you can talk til you're in your twenties, or already doing it. I've had so many answers for that question over the years.

I want to be a singer!

A Veterinarian!

A doctor!

A scientist!
