news flash.

Well I haven't written in forever, and several lovely things have happened.

  • Dan and I finished the semester successfully. We both did very well and got good grades.
  • We moved into a new apartment (with a washer and dryer a balcony, and central air).
  • Dan took the MCAT on May 7th.
  • We took at well-deserved vacation down to Florida. We went to LECOM Bradenton, which is a medical school we are seriously considering. We also went to the beach, which was lovely since it was raining in Provo while we were there. The best part, though, was that we went to HARRY POTTER LAND! It was incredible. I cried several times because I was so happy, and we drank some delicious butterbeer. Everything about it was perfect. It was one of the top ten best days of my life.




  • For the past few weeks, I have been working at Flirty Aprons. It has been awesome. I love it and wish I could work there for a long time, but unfortunately, they don't think they can hire me long-term.
  • Also, Dan and I have discovered the art of geocaching. We love it and cannot get enough of it. We even created our own cache and people have found it. It's awesome.
  • Dan and I went up to the spot where he proposed to me. We found the tree and Dan carved our initials into it.

That's pretty much everything I can think of. Things are going well though :)

more delicious foods!

Yesterday in my food class I made an apple pie! It is so good!!! It turned out beautiful and the crust was perfectly flaky and delicious. I am very proud of it :)


I also have finally perfected my pizza crust recipe. Dan likes it so much that he said we shouldn't even go out and buy pizza anymore!


Hooray for baking adventures!!!

delicious food and giving thanks.

Recently I have been cooking up a lot of delicious foods. AND I LOVE IT. Here are some lovely examples:

Raspberry Jello Poke Cake
Manicotti
Baked Macaroni & Cheese
Tortellini Tomato Soup

Anyway, things have been going wonderfully. We have three and a half weeks of school left, and then a week after finals, we are moving to a new apartment. I'm pretty excited because it's bigger, cheaper, doesn't mold, and it has a balcony (can you say garden!?). Anyway, we're going to the temple tonight and I'm excited because we haven't been for over a month. We've been really blessed lately because we sold our car, got our tax refund, and I'm going to do a peanut allergy study where I can make up to $1,200 if I do the whole study. Anyway, we need to go to the temple and show our thanks to the Lord. It's going to be a good weekend.

hilarious.

Today the funniest thing happened. So I went to go pick Becca up from school because she wasn't feeling well and had missed her bus. So I drove up to where she told me to go and I sat there and waited for her. She called me and I told her where I was and she said she was on her way and hung up. I'm sitting in my car looking for her to come around the JKB and I see a girl in a BYU hoodie, kind of like one that she has, get into a white car on the other side of the road. It was dark, so I figured I probably hadn't seen her that well, since it clearly couldn't be Becca because she had gotten into another car. Several seconds later, the girl gets out of the car, looks in my direction, and hurries over to my car. I started laughing my head off and realized what my poor little sister had done. Becca looked very embarrassed as she got into my car and immediately bent over and told me to "DRIVE!" When she told me what had happened, we both started laughing so hard, we got all teary. Apparently, Becca had gotten into the car, which was only similar to mine in that it was white, and commented on the cleanliness (or lack thereof) of the interior. After sitting down and shutting the door, she looked across at the person whose car she had just entered and, upon realizing that it was not me, she apologized, said goodnight, and got out of the car, only to scramble over to my car and hide out of sight. The best part about this whole thing was that I saw it happen. It was seriously the funniest thing I have seen in a long time. I will be laughing about this for years.
