Hey there, what’s up?

Look, I made a cake! It’s been a while, I know. I’ve missed it. I’ve missed kneading the fondant. I’ve missed icing the cakes. I’ve missed the last minute panicking when something inevitably falls apart.

But I’m back! Life is starting to settle down again so maybe I’ll have some time to bake some more delicious treats. Or maybe not bake because it’s 95 degrees at all points in time. Maybe I’ll just make lots and lots of ice cream.

Anyways…graduation cake! Congrats Sean!

The Jackster came to town on Tuesday. And when the Jackster comes to town? Priceless moments.

She came for my graduation from Johns Hopkins. I went to grad school part time for the past few years and figured might as well get to wear the crazy cap and gown (and hood!) and make my friends suffer through a long, boring ceremony. I mean, I didn’t do all that homework for nothing.

I look kind of crazy in that picture, but can we please focus on the important things? Look at the size of that strawberry in Melissa’s hand! And it’s half eaten! And Melissa has tiny hands, but they aren’t abnormally small. The strawberries were HUGE! Also, please see Jen on the left. Jen is awesome. And apparently has not been getting photo love in the blog, so please note that it wasn’t intentional. Jen will be making many more appearances here.

I had to include this picture if only for the look on my mom’s face. It’s the Jackster. Can we expect anything less?
