b.

i've had a bit of free time this weekend! it's been so AWESOME. i had about 6 hours today. in that time i:
went to the bijou market with jennica.

 you should really concider checking out this handmade craft market in provo next time it comes around. such fun things and it never ceases to amaze me how creative and talented people are!
i ended up leaving with this stellar headband & lovely wood chevronesque necklace. 

i made a bit of a drastic hair change.

ok. maybe it's not that drastic--but for me it is! because my hair has basically been the SAME for 2 years. i've been growing it out. 

I GOT BANGS. and some pretty hefty ones at that. 

i really enjoy them so far. 

and finally, after work tonight i enjoyed some time with me and my girl B.

i don't think i have ever really talked about my deep love for beyonce on here. 

that woman is AMAZING. and tonight i had the privilage of watching her Live in Rosland DVD for '4'. 

OH.MY.GOSHHHH. it was so good. she's got such swag. CLASSY SWAG. 

i started crying at two different parts. 

then i started watching music videos (thanks morg.)

and then interviews. like this one. 

i think what it boils down to... everyday i wish i had a voice like that.

also-her body is perfection. she is SO sweet. 

you should watch this. this.  this. THIS. or the crazy in love mv. her and jay are PERFFFFF.

and finally. schoolin life is one of my many faves. (or listen. or halo. can't decide)

and thats ALL. done. 

goodbye for now.

cake.sugar.icecream.etc.

i know i'm the worst blogger. i don't blog everyday. 

but i honestly don't even have that kind of time! 

i am working sometimes 17 hours a dayyy. 

finals are approaching at a rapid pace. 

and i'm supposedly moving out before finals? who knows. 

BUT. i will show you guys what i have been up to in school--since that seems to interest some people?

meringata all crema

bananas foster

strawberry lavender, mango passion fruit, milk chocolate/hazelnut, pistachio and banana gelato!

Au Petite Antione

(iwillnevermakethiseveragain.)

devils food cake with creme brulee insert

i also made a avocado ice cream with candied honeydew, lychee sorbet and a lemon bombe center. 

and if anyone was interested... i made a cute cake for my dearest friend chelsie's birthday. (check it outt)

i've really come to like making smaller scale cakes like that.. so if you want one, you should just let me know. i dont like eating them. just making them. so give me an excuse to make all these cakes i want to try out!

and thats pretty much my life as of late. 

like usual my life is just surrounded by food.

and i'm def not complaining.
