Today is Purim. Heard of it? It’s awesome. Purim is a holiday full of festivities, costumes, gifts, and general good cheer. The Purim story has scandal, manipulation, one really evil fella, a righteous dude, a cool queen, and plenty of intrigue. That evil dude is named Haman and we hate him so much, when reading [...]

It’s been a very green and pink couple of weeks for me. First I made an adorably-whimsical birthday cake and followed that up with these little baby shower onesie cookies. I’m finally learning to plan ahead a bit so I can afford the time it takes to add many of the little details. I’d like [...]

My roommates got married last weekend. Yes roommateS. To each other. Although it would be quite the coincidence of they were getting married to different people. I didn’t always live with an engaged (and now married) couple though. When I first moved to my current place it was just me and one-half of the couple. [...]
