happy birthday to the woman who's uterus was once my habitat, endured 13 hours of labor to bring me into this world and reminds me of it daily, and raised me with just enough dysfunction to make me funny!!

artificially colored bread.
a few weeks ago i saw this sweet video on youtube...
i thought it was wicked, to say the least, and was thinking of the best time/event to make this despite my fear of excessive food coloring (yet my fave cupcake is red velvet:). i ended up making it in a pinch for this bake sale my art class was having to raise money and there would be a prize for the most artistic. i enjoy wining and competing, especially with a food competition sign me up!
i make the shiz and it comes out like every food bloggers should...
awesome.
enjoy my real life.
Happy Monday!!

God basically did the legwork for me I was pretty nervous even though I was totes ready, i just get the benefits now!

Happy Sunday!
Is it just me or does this verse make God sound like a mobster that shops at the mens big and tall section? What?

birthday/easter re-cap!
on march 31 i made my 18 revelation around the sun.
(no, i'm not wearing a wig, i also eat the same)
or i turned 18. and it was on easter!! and it was one of the best birthdays i've ever had!
my birthday weekend started with going out for an uhMAZING waffle breakfast with my mom in this adorable waffle and coffee restaurant and ran and unneeded red light. addicted to read the second Hunger Games book, Catching Fire. Each chapter leaves off on such a cliff hanger, it is a perfect book club book! celebrated a little at work that night and on my saturday morning shift. blessed with a sweet place to work. Later on Saturday, there was a young adult Easter service with baptisms that I balled at. met my main girls there who were home on spring break!! we reunited (minus my other bestie who was ill) and complemented each others hair as always. we went out to my favorite thai place for curry while dressed in an a plastic birthday tiara and sash. when the host asked if it was my birthday i said no. what?! you don't wear plastic tiaras on saturdays?! you're missing out! kidding. we lost approximately 10 pounds laughing and raving over how delicious our food was. when the resturant sang "happy birthday"to me it sounded similar to the below minus the crying mom and the duck.
Hung drove around while "singing" "Call Me Maybe," and since i turned 18, the legal age to get permenant body markings, we all took the classy route and got OneDirection ones from the dollar store.
man, i love my girls. <3
On my actual birthday, on easter, I celebrated the greatest event in history singing "death, where is your victory, hell, where is your sting, church, stand in the LIGHT!"
best meme ever.
I went out with my friend Maryann and she fed my the spiciest Guyanese curry ever. there was a small italian easter dinner at my house. my family's kinda the definition of classy and dysfunctional. like when we let our dogs eat at the table.
my nonny is pretty cute though.
