"Approach love and cooking with reckless abandon."

Tomorrow is Blayze's Halloween shindig/parade. He requested that I "make something sweet"... lately I've been once again on a cheesecake kick sooooo I decided why not cupcake sized cheesecakes & instead of smashing up oreos for the base we decided to use entire Oreos. They came out pretty cool. I'm not too happy with the whip cream color, I couldn't get it orange enough =/

Finished product

What the inside looks like =]

overall I think they look a bit sloppy but the kids aren't going to judge that critically haha

“There is no feeling more comforting and consoling than knowing you are right next to the one you love.”

So it's been ages. Recently celebrated my one year anniversary. Nothing extravagant just dinner with some friends & a homemade treat for my babe.

"Edible Diabetes"

Oreo/Graham cracker crust, 2 cheesecake layers one chocolate the other regular with 2 cups of sweetened strawberries. Homemade whip cream, sweetened sliced strawberries, cocoa powder & melted chocolate drizzle on top.

Oh & we got pictures done!

 

 

oh how I love him. he amazes me. My next entry will most likely be about these Oreo Cheesecake cupcakes I'm going to make for my sons' Halloween party at school. =] I love baking!

A rather fun photo shoot all in all...

"A good friend will come bail you out of jail, but a true friend will be sitting next to you saying...'Damn, that was fun!"

The night of the bonfire for Tyler's birthday bash was chaotic, & fun... up until my bf and a few others' were arrested... I haven't had the desire to write since. He's out now, and I'm content enough that I feel that desire returning to me, but only a little at a time. It's odd how in times of need those you'd least expect are by your side while the ones who should be stay blissfully obtuse to what's occuring, or just flat out don't care...

"Assumptions are the termites of relationships"

After being denied my carnal needs for several days & nights I finally exploded and it caused a rather large fight between David & I. To the point where I left the house to cool off, only went to OfficeMax & In N Out but it was none the less the first time it has ever been bad enough that I needed to leave the house to cool down, typically it's him that needs to do that. We talked things out when I picked him up and realized most of the issues is simply all the drama currently going on at home. We lounged around the house most of the day up until the time when Blayze got out of school when we met up and hung with Paris for a bit and chatted. Bella grabbed the kids while we talked and then Blayze played in the grass with Bella, Annaleia and a few other kids. We hung out with Ces & learned she is moving back to Cali on Saturday, we kinda got into it over him not allowing me to go over to her house to get some of said frustration out, finally got him to agree to a little fun and ended up staying up for several hours until we both passed out from exhaustion & completely sated =] mmm love my gorgeous boyfriend.

Haven't updated in a bit. Been realllllly busy. Finally convinced Kitty to let me help her with the wedding so I've made the invites, rsvp & table placement card & helped tie up the invites to be sent out =]
