Pomp and Circumstance

Ooo, boy... what a busy couple of weeks! I apologize for the length between post, friends... I've just been way too busy!

It all started with graduation on May 14...

...which was a blast! It was a great last day with my RT classmates... plus I'm a little sentimental, so I always love a good ceremony. We've accomplished a lot, so a big celebration was definitely in order!

Then last Saturday my parents threw a huge BBQ for my sister and I, and I baked some epic cakes for the event. We spent the evening surrounded by family and friends, with easy BBQ food, beer, and badminton. Thanks to everyone who came and made our celebration successful and special!

I baked a peanut butter chocolate cake for Megan and a Pina Colada cake for myself... don't worry, recipes are coming very soon!

Then this week I began working full time, took (and passed!) the first of my board exams, and Megan graduated from high school!

That's Meggie on the left, with her friend, Katie.

It's been a very exciting couple of weeks! But unfortunately, it's left me very little time to cook... poor Dane has been living on frozen pizza and sandwiches all week and is practically begging for some real food! Now this weekend the boy and I are headed to Twin Falls to spend some time with his family and get a few more wedding details nailed down. So the fun continues! But don't worry... I'll be back very soon with more tasty recipes to share. :)
