Little Miss Suzanne Home Maker

Well, I might as well own a bakery after today.  I am taking cupcakes for one of my classes tomorrow and then I am making a cake for a shower on Tuesday.  The pictures below are of the cupcakes I made for my class.  I haven't decorated the cake for the shower yet.  I should have that up tomorrow evening though.  I did almost kill the dog today.  I had made the cake for the shower and was letting it cool.  I ran downstairs for 1 minute and she decided to taste test it.  5 nice chunks out of the side of the cake.  So I had to go to the store to get another cake mix and some more eggs.  Oh well!

First the sand (butter cookies)

It's not the heat....

IT'S THE HUMIDITY!!!!

Can I just say I am loving the fact that it is warm, but I am not a fan of my curly hair.  And in times like these, I have no choice but to have curly hair.  There is no product yet invented that will keep my hair straight in humid conditions.  Oh, they all talk a good game, anti-humidity my foot.  

How about just a frizz-free summer, is that too much to ask?????

The Last Curtain Call

Tonight was the last night of being a nun.  I turned in my wimple and my veil, my rosary, my collar, my scapula, and my rope.  I only got sentimental during the last song.  I was thinking, this is it, my last few notes on this stage.  I know I will not have the chance to do another show with these people before I move (if this is news to you, sorry).

Here are a few pictures of Sound of Music.  I'll have more later.

Meet Corrie, our Jamaican nun (ok, not really, but she did go to Cancun.)

As you can see our nuns weren't always..... nunlike :)

Ever see a picture?

Have you ever seen a picture that makes you laugh out loud?  This one did so I had to share it. 

I know it has been a long time since my last blog.  I haven't forgotten.... I have just been busy.  This past weekend was the opening weekend of the Sound of Music in which I am a nun.  2 more weekends to go.  Next week I start my next grad class....Finance and Accounting.  Doesn't that sound exciting?  I have a 3-4 page paper due the first night.  I hate having to write a paper for someone I haven't met.  I ended up with a 99.2% total in my last class!  I just hope I can keep it up.  

Well, that's the news for me.  I hope you had a good laugh at the picture.  :)

It's been a while....

Take a deep breath!  That's what I'm doing.  I just finished my first grad class last night!  Going into the final week I have a 99.6%.  The only reason I don't have a 100% is because of the TAB key.  Seriously.  I was docked .3 on an assignment so I got a 14.7/15 because I didn't indent one paragraph.  My final paper, which has yet to be graded, ended up being 14 typed pages PLUS another 9 pages of references and tables.  My next class isn't until May 15th so I have time to focus on my other project, being a nun.... in The Sound of Music of course.  I have practice every day till opening night, which is May 2nd.  

The weather is finally warming up and looks like it will stay that way for a while :)  That makes me very happy!  I am not much of a cold weather person.  

Middle School Years....

Do you remember when you were in middle school?  I do.  It was nothing like middle school is today, I can promise you!  I had a substitute today because I had a meeting.  I went back to school after it was over.  The sub left me a 2 page dissertation about their behavior.  I mean, when we had subs we always tried to get away with a few things.  There isn't enough money for me to be a sub today!  Not in my school anyway.  I am literally concerned about our future!  

I wonder if they worried about me!

10 Things you may not know about me...

Today I have no thought provoking message to dwell on.  It is the last day of my Spring Break, it went way too fast if you ask me and was incredibly unproductive.  I didn't even crochet or sew!  It was probably the laziest week of my life, other than the fact I did read a LOT for my class and wrote one paper.  

So... on with today's blog...

10 THINGS YOU MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT ME:

1.  I was president of my high school 4-H club.  

2.  I received the highest score in my district in judging plants and seeds.

3.  I leave all the blue and orange M&Ms and all the orange and white Smarties to eat last.

4.  My favorite flower is the Shasta Daisy.  2nd place is the Gerber Daisy.

5.  My hair held a real barrette when my parents brought me home from the hospital.  

6.  I am the only person kin to everyone in my family... confused, ask me.

7.  One of the ligaments in my left elbow was originally a tendon in my left wrist.
