haha I think I have just eaten too much of it. I used to make and decorate cakes weekly for practice so my whole family got sick of cake and frosting.

First and foremost I learned how to make icing: beat together- 1/2 cup softened butter 1/2 cup crisco 1 tsp. vanilla gradually add- 4 cups powdered sugar then add 1 tbsp milk more or less if needed. To be honest I personally don't like the flavor of this, it just works really well for...

I think our rice cooker is still the same one my mom had from college haha. It is an ugly yellow color and you have to bend the cord a certain way for it to turn on. As crappy as it may look on the outside, it still works perfectly. As far as I'm concerned a rice cooker is a rice cooker. In my...

My boyfriend loves cinnabon rolls... I think I'll make these for him with a simple frosting for a valentines day breakfast! :) thanks!

Making dough is always fun, but a timely process. I usually buy.

Yes I've seen snow, but today was the first time I've ever seen snow falling from the sky!!! It was awesome :)

I have a Cannon brand digital camera. I've had it for almost 3 years and it takes pretty good photos as well as videos. I have a 2 GB memory card which is the perfect size for my uses. I take TONS of pictures, at the zoo, birthdays, concerts, vacations, everywhere I go, my camera goes too. It...

I wish I had a "real" butcher. I think I am going to google and see if I can find one near me now :)

A light weight fold able cart would work well. We take one when we go to the city, or china town. You could bring a collapsible cooler with an ice pack to store the freezer items in. When I get in line to pay at the store I strategically place certain items together so they will bag them...

This sounds like a fun idea I would love to try myself. When I make regular garlic bread I first spread on the thinnest layer of mayo, it sounds weird, but I've had good results. Also, I like a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese too.

As much as I love Japanese restaurants I haven't been going very often because they are so expensive. I LOVE sushi, so instead of just going to restaurants I've been going to sushi bars!! All you can eat lunch for around 12 bucks, count me in!!! :) I don't like anything that's not cooked, it...

Baby bok choy is really good floating in udon. I also like slices of hard boiled eggs. Yumm

Went out to the sushi bar! Delicious!

Went to the casino... UGHHH not a good idea. lol

I agree with everyone else, for cooking I measure to taste. For baking I am very exact, my mom even gave me measuring spoons for "pinch", "dash", and "smidgen" as a joke.
