Giada De Laurentiis

Whooo Who!! I met Giada today at a book signing in San Jose. It was so fun to wait in line with my friend Jenna from culinary school. We bought her new book titled Giada's Kitchen, which is FULL of amazing dishes and fun tips. So Fun!

Apicius!

Dear Ms. Whitaker,

Congratulations, I am pleased to inform you have been accepted to Apicius International School of Hospitality for the Spring 2009 semester.

That's right! International baby!! I am leaving on a jet plane in January, flying to Washington DC to visit my aunt and uncle, and then I am off to Italy for the semester. I applied to a culinary school in the town of Firenze, (Florence) and I will be there studying Italian culture and cuisine until June. I am really excited!

Check out the website if you want, there are awesome photos and information about the programs offered at this school.

- I also want to put out a huge THANK YOU to all of the support I have received through this next journey in my life. I am amazed by the love from my family and friends, and the donations to help me pay for school. I am eternally thankful for all my friends and family and I can't wait to come home and share all my Italian culinary knowledge with you!

Ciao!

R.I.P Scarlett "Stinky"

As I was driving on Glen Arbor around 10am Sunday morning, I was unpleasantly surprised to see our two year old chocolate female lying on the side of the road. She had escaped from the fenced yard at my mothers house and ran up onto the busy street. Here, she met an unhappy fate with a moving vehicle and now she is gone. She was an extremely sweet dog, her disposition put a smile on every ones face. She truly will be missed, but the legacy will carry on as she gave birth to a litter of puppies in late spring, one of which is a part of our family. His name is Chunky and he will miss his mommy dearly. Rest in peace lovely Scarlett, you were a wonderful part or our lives.
