Since I haven't posted ANYTHING in well over a month....thanks to anyone who even reads this.

A few weeks ago my mother, my sweet Micah and I went to the Fabulous Food Show in Cleveland. I must say that Micah was beautifully behaved, it could have been a disaster! Anyhow, we saw some amazing things. Like these cakes.



It astonishes me that anyone can make such beautiful things out of food. Very impressive.

On the flip side of the show being so lovely, we also found out that Paula Dean is very much a BITCH!!! After talking to one of the Show workers, we learned that she treated the workers like crap, would not allow guests to sit in certain seats during her performances which cost an ADDITIONAL $60 because she is not already rich enough to include her show in the general admission ticket price of $25 bucks like the other celebrity chefs highlighted in this year's show. HUMPH. Well let me just say that I saw Miss Dean a few years ago and she sucked. I was disappointed. Majorly. But I was very happy this year sitting in the audiences of Guy Fieri and Curtis Stone. Very fun. And it didn't cost us anything EXTRA.

The Holidays are here. I'm spending money like a crazy person. Its fun. But I've got to get my Christmas tree up this weekend and some presents wrapped because one entire side of my bedroom looks like a Target isle. The mess is making me go loony. Furthermore, I've got so much crap piled up everywhere, it is impossible to know what I've already bought. The latter is a CLEAR sign that I probably need to just stop shopping altogether. But I have managed to score some cute clothes and shoes for myself as well. Besides, I'm stimulating the economy.

My husband informed me the other day that we are NOT going to be able to go to Washington D.C. for the inauguration because it's going to be to hectic to take a baby. I told him to fuck off, we're going cause if there are going to be 3 million people attending, a few more (US) won't make much of a difference. The jury is still out on the final decision...

If I don't make it back here for another month and a half, have a wonderful Christmas!!

Those cakes are gorgeous!! I hope you get to go to the inauguration. I don't like being in crowds, so I'm not even trying to go. I'll be happy watching on TV. Have a Merry Christmas!! ; )

The news of Miss Paula makes me sad. I guess it really is true that fame changes people. Her show has really gone downhill also. She makes a lot of CRAP that reminds me of the odd food combos that one would find in 1950s Kraft product cookbooks. And she's really turned up the "down-homeyness" of her accent to the point where I cannot stand to listen to her. FAKEY!

We need to get together so I can get some Squeezin' Time in with Micah.

Anali~Thanks and Happy Watching! Truth be told, I'll most likey be watching too...I won't go without my husband :(

Nance~I stopped watching Paula after I saw her the first time at the food show and she didn't cook anything, everyone did it for her. I didn't go to see her husband and assistants make stupid bannana pudding and some damn tomatoes on wedges of bread...COOK someting!!

Yes! Lets get together!

You WILL be back before Christmas! I totally knew a "Fuck off" was coming soon after I read Jay's announcement.

Those cakes have me drooling.

Now get your ass over there and read my post before another one of your random disappear acts!

Love You!
