A big thank you to Arlene for "branding" me with a new header! Soft, pretty and delicate... I absolutely love it!! She knows me so well.
Thanks Arlene for surprising me with the design and an even bigger thank you for your friendship! You are such an encouragement to me. God bless!

Valentine's Day Cake (marble)
Made with love, by Lisa (my sister) and Stephanie, for our dad and my fiancé, on Valentine's Day.
(Sorry, the pictures aren't the best quality)
This would be excellent for a cow-themed cake!

MORE cupcakes, and jello too!
Purple cupcakes, purple nachos, purple candies, purple decorations, and more! Why so much purple? It was for Arlene and Adrian's purple themed Stag and Doe!! Special friends deserve a special day... and tastey treats too!
Here are just a few pictures of the snacks and decor that were created at my house (a lot of other people put even more time & effort into the party!!).
Credit goes to my sister Lisa for perfecting the shade of purple in the icing.
Mmm, jello jigglers!
It truly was a day of celebration! The tissue paper was cut up into little pieces and pasted on large cut-outs drawn by hand of "celebrate" letters. We got the idea from elementary school projects, so it clearly wasn't too hard to make. Again, thanks to Lisa for the help!

Beautiful long weekend in Seattle, Washington!
I spent four days visiting my brother in Seattle, Washington! I had never been before... and I haven't been to the West Coast in over ten years (when I visited family in San Francisco), so it was great to be there! The best thing was seeing my brother, and spending time with him and Chika. The other best things about the trip were being on a vacation and exploring a new place!
Seattle is known for high consumption of delicious coffee (Starbucks, Tully's, and Seattle's Best all began here), cutting-edge musicians (just to name a few: Jimi Hendrix, Nirvana, and Pearl Jam), the 605 feet high Space Needle, the setting of television shows and movies (Sleepless in Seattle, Frasier, and Grey's Anatomy), the Pike Place Market (a continually operated farmers' market), and of course, Seattle is known for Bill Gates' Microsoft empire. I've included some scenic shots from my trip... I had no idea that Seattle was this beautiful!
The paintball scene from "Ten Things I Hate About You" was shot here! I like the composition of this photo. Is composition the right word? Do I mean contrast?
Boat home... I wonder what life would be like there...
Some scenes from Grey's Anatomy are shot here.
We saw this driving down the street on our first day in Seattle and wondered what on earth this vehicle was about! And then we saw it again on our second day at a Sunday market festival! All our questions were answered: it's a pig-like vehicle that opens up on the side to serve BBQ. Ouch.
Pom poms! Near the market.
Cool architecture for a Cold Stone ice cream shop. Near the market again.
Chika figured he should eat lots of seafood on our trip because we were on the West Coast. This is the meal he ate at the Space Needle.
Really great kitchen store! They had everything that you could ever think you would need in a kitchen... even spatulas with cute designs on them! It was fun and I didn't even buy anything.
The amazing Snoqualmie Falls. Breathtaking. God's masterpiece.

Birthday cupcakes
These are the cupcakes that my friends and I enjoyed eating at my birthday party. My sister Lisa and my fiancé Chika did most of the work in making these! Thanks guys! I especially like the hearts that Lisa made out of fondant.

My pretty ring
I love him dearly!
My fiancé is "the beeeest" - Nacho Libre
I love these pictures! This is during the cocktail hour at my cousin's wedding in Montreal (before we were engaged) at the gorgeous Chateau Vaudreuil. The chateau borders on the Lac des Deux-Montagnes... so pretty and lush! Anyways, my sister Lisa was taking pictures of us and she took a few candid ones. I hope the compilation doesn't make you gag... because I think it's C U T E!
