10 recap part II

Summer:

I started summer out by training for cross country and taking a minimester in history. I went home to work. Hailey graduates from middle school....she is growing up so fast. Groman had a photo shoot for Jeff and I. I had sleepovers with Hannah and Erica...two of my favorite people in the whole wide world. Went to Ocean City, got very tan and ate a whole lot of Khors Bros Ice cream with tons of jimmies! I quit cross country, because of tendonitus, yet still trained 2-3 hours a day...just in case they still needed me. I went up to the mountains with Gerri. I visited Rob in Colorado! It was beautiful.





















Fall:
I moved in with Erica and Selena. Erica and I did a killer job decorating our home. I turned 21, and had a fun cupcake party, and my first whole drink! Lots of cousins visited. We went bowling. We laid out by the pool. Erica and I made tons of delicious dinners. I feel madly in love with Erica....and found out she is my soulmate. I went to the state fair with Jeff and John! buddy got really sick, which made my very sad. I took my first photo class and loved it. We visited steven's farm. I adopted Robbie...who is such a sweet heart, and a good friend for buddy. Jeff and I went on tons of fun dates, and got to spends loads of time together. and I started wearing my hair curly. Oh and also got a sweet job as a cycling instructor and yoga instructor












10 Recap part I

2010 was a good year. Let's see what I can remember

January.
It snowed a few times. I was still suffering from my IT band syndrome issues, so no running for me. I saw my friend Jeff in the Seagull...and as he reminds me, feel asleep. We had a French night with crepes and Amelie. Had a weekend in Austin with Ben and Ryan. Made Chris, Robbie, Ryan, and Ben dinner with my world famous lava cakes. Went to see Fantastic Mr Fox with Jeff




February.
We had our gangster/mobster movie weekend, and went to olive garden and talked in italian mobster accents the whole time. Buddy got spayed, thankfully it went well, and we enjoyed lots of fun breakfasts on the floor together. We started our Thursday night Jason's night. It snowed a few more times. School was canceled for an afternoon as a result of it. We had lots of gloomy weather. Jeff and I had our first date, unfortunately his phone broke and I thought he blew me off.




March:
For spring break I visited my aunts in New Jersey. I went on walks in the woods, went to the mall with my cousins, baked with them. Straightened Chris's hair. Maria J and I went to New York city and had lots of fun!






The rest of spring:
I made lots of yummy dinners for Robbie and I. Had a surprise party for Ben. Jeff and I had a tent fort date. Went to Jeff's banquet.

pomegranates


I get very excited when I see pomegranates in season because I know its almost thanksgiving/christmas time. Although this season I have not had one yet. =(

I have a problem with pomegranates. I love the juice but the seeds are kind of a turn off (i do not eat them, but spit them out), and so is the half an hour it takes to pluck all the seeds out. One would think the ideal solution is just drinking pomegranate juice. False, it is hard to drink a whole 8 oz glass of pomegranate juice, its too sour. So either I dilute it with water, which takes away the little bit of sweetness or I talk a few shots of the juice.

bunny love





I miss the bunnies so stinkin much! I texted the bunny lady to see how they were doing. We were both worried how buddy would do with out....she misses me a lot. But she said they were both doing good, and that she was in LOVE with Buddy. This makes me so happy, cuz she is such a sweetheart.
