A GREAT Job

So...
I got a great job, at Great Harvest, get it?
Right, so I work at 5:30 in the AM (Who would have guessed?!) And I love it!!! I'm not the biggest fan of going to bed early, but I am really liking getting up early and moving. I have to work a cash register but I also get to frost cookies and cinnamon rolls and put the drizzle on all the sweet treats!



I wear my American flag bandanna and get to make the frosting in a giant mixer! Its real fun.

So this cookie (the one in the picture) is significant because I made that frosting all by myself! I made it purple, but while I was making it the color was getting really faded, I thought it looked Grey. So, I kept asking one of my co-workers "Does this look Grey?" He kept replying really weird, a really enthusiastic, "yeah!."
I didn't want grey, duh, so I kept adding color and asking him, "This looks grey, doesn't it?"
And he kept being really enthusiastic, "yeah!"

So finally, I realize. He thinks I'm asking him if the frosting looks "GREAT"

no... I'm not that conceited.

It actally looks a little grey in this picture... I promise its purple!

23! It's an age

Its my age. And there's nothing like a spring birthday to bring everyone together for a picnic party in the park.



We ate cake ad laid on blankets, and mother nature didn't act up one bit.




There was plenty to do at the park all morning!

We played bocce ball




I was pampered...



And we fed the ducks (look at all those gulls)

I am a child of the spring

Although it is snowing
I am a child of the spring
And with my tax return
I will buy
My freedom

Party!



I threw a birthday party for my friend Damien.



This is my friend Damien, I met him when I was twelve. At a carnival. We ran wild terrorizing carnies (in an innocent 12 year old way) and slid down a giant slide in potato sacks. And now we do pretty much the same thing here in Salt Lake...






We had his party outside in the snow. We ate curry out of chinese takeout boxes. drank Martineli's and made toasts. Then we played party games. Each guest had a party bag with treats and supplies to play the party games. We played outside until our feets were frozen, then we went inside and played some more.



And ate cupcakes!




and took pictures!

Happy Birthday Dame!!
