I have a very exciting announcement today…
My little sister started a blog!

Guys, my sister is AWESOME – and gorgeous, right? Look at that hair! Her name is Amanda and she just finished her sophomore year in college and she’s one of my favorite people ever. She got sucked into the food blog world when I started mine last fall and has taken the plunge and begun one of her own! Check out My Summerizations to follow “an independent girl’s attempt at entertaining herself all summer long through food, words and exploration.”
From the darling girl herself: “This summer I hope to discover new facets of myself as I do things I always wish I would: experiment with food, begin yoga, read more books and reflect on my thoughts…whatever they may be.”
Oh, and she’s a journalism major, so I know the writing will kick booty. Love ya sis!

She loves me too.
For another announcement…my oven has been fixed! At least, I think it has. I haven’t officially tested it yet, but apparently it’s good to go. So I’ll be back in the kitchen soon and share a recipe with you all this week! Hooray!



Oh my gosh you BOTH are two beauties!!! That fresh skin is so beautiful too. You both have porcelain complexions! I am going over to check out her blog now, very excited!!
Hooray!
Carmen’s huh??? That’s crazy, before I was living in Chicago I still came here all the time and I have NEVER heard of it! But if you recommend it I’ll definitely give it a shot! (and I have ALWAYS wanted to go to Spiaggia!!! That’s where Michelle and Barack supposedly always go on Vday btw, theres a political tidbit of the day)
Congrats on having the oven fixed!
And I’ll definitely have to check our your sister’s blog.
Thanks Ash! Love the picture of me with my gross and sweaty hair after your graduation.
Can’t wait for you to visit! Love you sis!
