So in honor of my friend Didi’s departure I made red velvet cake. Well, I made one red velvet cake. The other one is green velvet cake. Seriously. I ran out of red. It’s not done baking yet, so I’m a little unsure of how it’s going to turn out. I’m afraid it might just [...]

So I couldn’t get to my regular workout and decieded to do some circut training instead. I did 35 minutes, doing crunches, push ups, squats and … jumping jacks. Jumping jacks, like everyone did in gym class when they were little kids. Now jumping jacks aren’t hard, but they’re evil.
I can’t walk. Seriously. I have [...]
