#11

So this entry is a little unfocused.

I had to go make an edible picture for my mom because she was making a retirement cake for someone. It was supposed to be simple. I take in the image to the cake store and they scan, copy, and print on edible paper. It ended up taking 40 minutes! So there I was surrounded by cakes, cookies, and candy for almost an hour and no samples to try. It was difficult.

I went to visit Toi (formely known as Bestie) tonight. We ate some Chinese and shopped. I got a t-shirt from J.Crew and some nifty lip gloss from Bath & Body Works. I fell in love with the mini scone pan at Williams-Sonoma. If I had it, I could make scones everyday. And I know that I would make them everyday. Really I would. You all could have some. 

On my way to meet her, I realized I came home from France a year ago today. That just seems crazy. It does not feel like a year has gone by.

Did anyone else stay up ridiculously late last night to watch the Wings only to have them lose in the 3rd overtime?

I have to go to the dentist tomorrow. They kind of ambushed me and forced me to make an appointment. I have to admit I haven't been in a while with the combination of not living in the country, working with dental people in the summer who would clean my teeth for free, and the fact that the hygienist would make me cry when she cleaned my teeth. But I've heard they got a new one who is gentler. Downside, she is the mom of a high school classmate. Last time, my brother went in, she made him talk on her cell phone with her daughter. I hope nothing like that happens tomorrow because 8:30 is just too early in the morning for that.

Oh, just to let you all know, Bath & Body Works is coming out with a new scent on July 7th. It is entitled Rain Kissed Leaves. And it has a motto something like: lustrous. youthful. poetic.

Ya, its special.

I am still so tired from watching the Wings game- maybe it's because I was up late watching the Jetsons movie. Tragic.

It's really too bad about the mini-scone pan. Maybe it will go on sale or clearance and you can buy it online? Although I really think the giant cupcake pan was cooler (even though out of the price range) and the vegetable cakette pan was much more logical. Also, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bab%C3%A0. SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO PRETEND YOU KNOW WHAT ONE IS.

I am going to buy the entire Rainkissed Leaf line when it comes out. Guess what your Christmas present is?????

Rum Babas sound delicious. I should buy those pans just to make them. I was looking at the mini scone pan and its not machine washable. But the regular scone pan is and we all know I don't really get a kick out of hand washing things. So maybe I'll get the other one.

I'm guessing my Christmas present will be a fabulous cardigan that has ruffles on only one side.
