A Jamie Oliver Dinner

For tonight I decided that I wanted to put a little Jamie in my life. So I went with a chicken stuffed with feta cheese, tomatoes, and parsley. Then for my vegetable I did the asparagus with cherry tomatoes, loads of herbs and of course garlic. Here is the photos from my food and the end result was just magnifique!

College Orientation

So for my CSUSM orientation it was an overnight experience. I shared my room with 5 other girls that seemed to be really cool. We threw a small party with about 20 other orientation kids until about midnight. My roommates Nikki, Nicole, Margaret, Sierra and Mary were really cool and we decided to request each other as roommates for the actual deal!

Past Vacations

      Since theres nothing much here available in the department of summer fun today I thought how about a flash back. Everyone has the photos when they were 13 and thought they were so cool; well now they haunt some of the best photos from traveling.
      I was that kid who thought she was looking good in photos until I looked back after 5 years and decided... eh not so much. So I have decided to share some photos from some of my best traveling experiences for the last 5 years or so.

New Puppy

My cousin (Julianne) just got a new puppy named Jackson. I wanted to get some good shots of such a cute puppy so I went up to visit the yellow lab. He was a bit squirmy so I only got a few shots. Enjoy!

Breanna's Graduation

So I have know Breanna since about 2002 when we started third grade at the same school. She is one of the funniest girls I know but she lives about a half hour away which makes it hard to see her. I am so glad I could see her graduate from high school because its just great to hang with her again. I did spend the night and kick her out of her own bed but I woke up early to help decorate for her party. I had a wonderful time and I hope you enjoy the photos!

CinnaBread

Being bored during the summer can always be productive. Deciding that a sweet bread sounded really good I decided to make a new recipe. Very simple pull apart cinnamon bread was perfect. It came out so amazing and I will bring some for my friend who is graduating high school tomorrow as a surprise brekkie! I think this is one of the best deserts so far.

Videos

Well without my camera lens no more good pictures will be taken. So I needed a backup plan for summer and I'm really missing Europe since I would normally be there by now. I made a short video on life it has videos from many of my adventures. Enjoy..... its a shame my camera lens had to break or maybe you would see my photography get better over the summer.

Nothing much

Hey just wanted to say I'm terribly sorry there have been no new uploads. As of Saturday my two month old camera lens took a nose dive to its death. The end result is a bunch of broken glass and no lens. Seems everything is just dying around me and has been a terrible start to my summer.
