I Love Organic Grapes

I'm far from a health nut. But the one thing I love is organic grapes. They just taste soo much better than non-organic grapes to me. They have a fresher and crisper taste to them. Heh Anyway, I just had some tonight so I felt like writing about it. =) hehe

Here's a picture I took years ago..

End of Memorial Weekend

I hope everyone had a nice Memorial weekend. I spent mine in Utah this year - last year, I was in Michigan with my family and Timmy. I can't believe it's been a year since that trip already. Time flies. I say that often but it really really does.
This weekend, I spent a good chunk of it relaxing and having fun. I went to a Tally Hall concert on Saturday night with a couple of my friends. They're a band from Ann Arbor, MI - they also went to U of M =)

It was a really cool experience to see how well they're doing now. They have a lot of fans, for sure! I was so impressed. heh You can tell the crowd had a really good time. One of the band members is a friend of mine from freshmen year. I still remember going to their first concert that year. I have to say this concert was a lot of fun. I had a great time. They were the main band and had 4 opening bands. I really liked the other bands too. Good times.

Hot Weekend

It was very hot in Salt Lake this weekend.. my apartment is in the 80s right now and it's almost midnight! I love the warm weather though. I'm so excited for summer =)

I had a nice weekend.. fun and chill. I hung out with several friends on Friday and Saturday nights. Watched the Utah Jazz on tv on Friday.. sucks that they lost. Walked around at Sugarhouse Park after watching the game. That was pretty neat.

On Saturday, I hung out with other friends and we had a bbq. Yummy food, good wine, and good company - a great combination.

Red Butte Garden & a Cupcake

I went to the Red Butte Garden tonight with Melanie and 2 of her friends. It was my first time going and it was really pretty. It's up at the University of Utah. It has a great view of the valley. Really nice to see the sunset there. Gorgeous =)

I made cupcakes on Sunday (Mother's Day) and brought them to my friend's house for a little gathering. They were cute looking so, I took pictures of 'em. Of course =)

Another Cake!

I'm on this cake-making spree right now. I've been watching soo much Food Network lately.. and I got inspired =) hehe On all of those cake shows.. Ace of Cakes.. Food Network Cake Challenge.. etc etc, they use fondant for all their cakes. It just looks so nice and clean. So, I decided that I would try it. =)

Here is my first attempt in making a cake with fondant. It's a German Chocolate Cake, with buttercream frosting/icing in between. I just used one of those packaged fondant and colored them blue, green, and yellow. Let me tell you.. this whole ordeal was soo labor intensive and a super huge cleanup. =P heh My gosh, I have so much respect for those people on Food Network - they make it look so easy!
I'm bringing this to work tomorrow.. I hope it tastes ok. I'm not even sure how the fondant tastes like =P I didn't try it when I was decorating. Heh, oh well?

3 Layer Red Velvet Cake

I made a 3 layer red velvet cake with a cream cheese frosting and walnuts. I forgot to crush the walnuts, so it looks kind of funky. =\ Oh well.. better luck next time for me. heh I hope it tastes ok. I'm bringing it to work tomorrow. I made red velvet cupcakes on Friday night to test it out. It tasted ok. heh

I went to my friend Zach's graduation party last night. He got his MBA - congrats Zach!! For some reason, I have super tall guy friends in Salt Lake. Hah. =)

Neha and I hung out today.. had breakfast.. hung out at the Gateway Mall.. good times. The weather was perfect today. I love spring in Utah.
