An Introduction

Well, I've decided that it's time for me to stop taking from the blogging community and to start giving a little!

I don't have much of a purpose in starting this other than to share my experiences and the things I love. (and also to join the Daring Bakers Blogroll!!!) I'm going to post this more for me than for you...but here are some things that I hope to post about in the future!

baking/cooking!
film
my dog (Gershwin! he's really fluffy!)
religion/spirituality
music
mine and Chase's art endeavors (with him drawing and me painting we work better as a pair than we ever would alone)


Now for a real introduction...a little about me!

I'm 24. I've been married to my husband Chase since December 2005 - so we're healthily and happily on our way to 3 years of marriage! And it sure is an adventure!

Right now, I work two jobs -

1.) In the mornings I bake cupcakes for the uber cute Cities Cupcake Boutique. I absolutely adore the staff there! They are unbelievably nice, sincere, and heartfelt people. Get to know them!

2.) The rest of the day I'm the embroidery manager/graphic designer for Educational Outfitters....a school uniform store. While sometimes the experience there is less than exciting, I get to embark on wonderful projects that involve publishing, digitizing, and photography! (thanks Brad & Steph!)

I know- I know...crazy to work two jobs like that right? (at 50+ hours a week, I sometimes feel like I'm crazy too!) But hubby is in school! And for us to be comfortable while he's in school...this is just how it must be. This is his first semester at the University of Tennessee and I couldn't be more proud of him. He made a 4.0 his last two semesters at Pellissippi and I have high hopes for this coming semester.


I guess that's about it for me right now...more to come in later posts of course!
