Been a while eh?

Really...there is little to nada to update on. We went down south and had a great Christmas with both sides of the family. We have no pictures though because our camera charger was M.I.A. for a while. Got some really rad, generous gifts though including some extensive cake decorating goodies and also an amazing book called Advanced Bread and Pastry. One word...AMAZING. It doesn't even use measuring cups. It measures everything by weight! haha. I need a kitchen scale before I can do anything but those aren't too expensive so I'll try to scoop myself up one. It's the text book for the baking institute in San Francisco (which is fantastic). That place only costs two arms and a leg to attend soooo...since I can't glean their wisdom in the classroom...I will glean from the 50 lb book that they produce (seriously...it's the heaviest book I think I've ever owned!) Totally exciting though.

What else?

We bought a dehumidifier.

Yeah.

That's exciting right?

Not really. Those things are darn expensive but the mold really has become more of an issue lately so we broke down and just bought one. Everyone else in SF seems to have one soooo...
'tis our turn to also take part in this new appliance purchase.

I've totally become a "gamer" lately. The bro and sis in-law bought us Donkey Kong for our Wii and it's amazing. I play almost every day when I get home from work! :) Although it's really hard and I end up getting really mad at it...which involves a lot of whining and yelling. Oh well. :)

Que mas?

It's cold in San Francisco. Enough said.

Oh, and I have another cake in the works. This shall be the best yet I do believe. I'm excited for sure. I have a month to brush up on some non-existent skills that I don't possess as of yet...but I'll learn, have no fear. You shall like....you shall like.

And that's all.

Tomorrow's Friday! Yah!
