they call me “Becky Crocker”

becky | September 28, 2009

Last Monday was Matt’s birthday and since this was the first birthday we had together, I wanted to make it extra special.  I couldn’t just get a boring store bought cake.  Oh no.  I had to show off my Mad Baking Skills, and let this guy fully appreciate just how lucky he is to have found [...]

Unbeknownst to me, I have joined the circus.  It seems I have become the main event at the Big Top.  My talent?  I spin an obscene amount of plates on these little teeny tiny sticks, making sure not to drop a one. Lately life has been good.  Really good.  I have a great job that I don’t dread on Sunday nights, [...]
