Laborious Days?

Bowling, Running, and Dolphin Watching

My brother's roommate Merek is a physics whiz and a brilliant gamer (Puerto Rico per esame) but his talent as a Potter is un-parallel! Look at the pieces he gave me Pro Bono. My cereal will never taste the same. Happy Belated Birthday to him and his awesome Birthday Suit!

On Sunday I ran the Rock'n'Roll Virginia Beach Half Marathon with Michelle and Chelsea, and than "ran" into Colleen who just newly arrived from Seattle home to the East Coast. What a race, perfect post summer/pre fall weather, a nice flat course with the last mile on the board walk. And a Half Marathon PR and a lesson on hashing to boot!

Chelsea and I stayed with our follow Clemson Tiger, Leigh. Leigh and I played Field Hockey together at Clemson, if you can even say we played. Lets just say we rocked out the plaid skirts and mouth guards! Leigh lives right on the beautiful beach where we met some friendly porpoises and learned to play horseshoes.

A Cupcake for every city!

Cities Cupcake Boutique: Knoxville, TN

Big News for Maggie Mayd fans in Knoxville. Maggie Mayd is the featured artist of September. Maggie Mayd Bake Sale ornaments and luggage tags are also for sale!

















Cities Cupcake located off of Kingston Pike, is the most ingenious cupcake shop yet! They have cupcakes that represent cities, national and international. They are auditioning for Cupcake Wars on the Food Network, Check out there audition video here!

My current location cupcake-
Washington, D.C. : Are you the conservative type? Amazed by the complexity of vanilla? The DC Cupcake is a vanilla cake topped with sweet buttercream vanilla frosting--topped off with patriotic red, white and blue stars. You'll always be politically correct with this one.

My personal favorite cupcake-
Orlando : For adults of all ages we bake the fanciful Orlando Cupcake. Think about the dizzying array of rides that'll make your head and your PB & J spin. This vanilla cake is frosted with vanilla buttercream and spirals of peanut butter and jelly.

The most unique city flavor cupcake-
Santa Fe : For customers who have a "savory tooth" instead of a sweet tooth, we offer our groundbreaking, taste-bud awakening Salty Cupcake Line--starting with the jalapeno cornbread, ranch-spiced, cream cheese frosted Santa Fe Cupcake!!!

The best flavor for the fall season cupcake-
Half Moon Bay : Autumn brings crunchy leaves, crisp air, fuzzy sweaters and our Half Moon Bay Cupcake. The tiny town of Half Moon Bay, CA has been hosting an annual pumpkin festival for decades. Our warm pumpkin spice cake is covered in rich cream cheese frosting and a dollop of orange marmalade!

JERSEY SHORE 2- TONIGHT!
I have been anxiously awaiting the return of these fantastic 7- 8 if you count Angelina- who is freaking bringing the drama! And please note that Snookie has made a change to her Bump.

*The only possible downside is that mom is visiting and lets face it- how do you explain this hour of debauchery to your mother- she will second guess her ability to raise me as a morally-capable child.

SNOWMAGEDDON TO HUMAN TOASTER ROASTER:
I prefer living life in the Extremes.
Please note in February Ben and I were suffering from early stages of frostbite in all extremities as we braved the 3 foot high ice cottoned streets. Then July hits and Ben- from Florida- says that this is the hottest yet.

A visit from Kelly (check out her lavender blog) and Will this weekend made a reason to go out and get baked- the natural way. Please observe picture. Excluded is the one taken before entering the un-aced metro car.

The way I see it, I want it HOT or COLD. I hate the summer weather that leaves you with a mild film and b.o. residue- just soak me so I don't have to make the ambiguous shower decision. Not to mention all the sweaty boys would be more confident about approaching girls when everyone has back sweat or a beaded forehead.

Love and Marriage

This is to all of my wonderful friends who were hitched this spring- what a wonderful time. Somebody give me some bugspray- there are too many lovebugs in the air!
