Get Your Crap Together

Ok, so this week has been super stressful! I have been so emotional and busy that I just did not have the time to post.  So when you have a tough week the best thing to think about is... DISNEYLAND!!!  So when I was in California three weeks ago I went to Disneyland.  I have never gone to Disneyland on a Saturday and during the summer (I may have when I was young, but the annual passes I buy are blocked out on weekends and peek seasons, which is holidays and summer).  So while in town I bought a ticket and went. I got to go on the new Guardians of the Galaxy ride. This ride is awesome! I went on it at least three times.  I actually had left Disneyland, went on it and some other ride at California Adventure, went back to Disneyland and then left Disneyland again to ride two more times! Me leaving Disneyland again to go back to California for a second time is a big deal, I am what you would call a Disneyland purest, so me leaving Disneyland again to go to Califo...

School has started this week.  I am now in major shock on the amount of money I have to spend on textbooks:(  I also got to meet puppies! There are five in the litter!  They are Decker Rat Terriers.  Yes the name is really weird, but the puppies are adorable! So get your crap together and suppress the stress of school with puppies! Also if you have any questions or comments, you know the drill;)

While in California I got to go to Six Flags with my brother and Aunt.  I will be honest I grew up only living five minute from Six Flags and have had a season pass since third grade.  When I got older and could drive I stopped going because I would rather go to Universal Studios or Disneyland (at one point I had an annual pass to all three parks!).  So it had been awhile since I have gone to Six Flags Magic Mountain. When I used to go, growing up I would only go for a couple of hours and then leave when I got hungry.  I am now very impressed with third grade Becca who could easily spend a whole day at Magic Mountain.  I barely survived this trip.  I suddenly feel so old.  Every ride would leave me exhausted and in pain, I can easily stay at Disneyland from opening to close (8 am-12 am).  I had gotten to the park before opening (it opened at 10:30) and by 4:30 I was done. I physically could not go on another ride. I did get to go on the new Ju...

I'm so sorry for not posting the past couple of weeks.  I went back to California for a week and then tried to catch up on all the schoolwork I had missed.  So while in California I went to the Santa Barbara Zoo.  It's been a while since I have been to a zoo and I really enjoyed it.  The Santa Barbara Zoo feels like it is tucked away.  It isn't too big so it was a nice little afternoon trip.  If you have young kids I highly recommend checking it out!  One of my favorite parts of the zoo was the little park that they had.  In the park there was a "hill" which consisted of concrete (or some other material) that was covered in turf.  Kids would slide down the hill on pieces of cardboard.  My little cousin did not want to leave the park!  There was also a cute dinosaur show where you go to train a T-Rex and watch a dinosaur lay eggs (that part was a little interesting). So if you  are looking for one last day trip to do with your k...

For my 18th birthday, my birthday party theme was a "Lady's Lunch".  For the dessert portion of the party I made twenty five cakelettes.  The pan I used is from Williams Sonoma and the recipe I used for the cake is Martha Stewart's lemon cake.  This cake is sooo yummy!  I don't have the recipe with me right now, but if you would like it comment below and I will post it asap! So get your crap together and make some cakelettes!
