i don’t post as often and i don’t bake as much.  and not being able to bake or post a lot “cramps my style.”
the ISNA conference likes to whip my normally whirlwind speed first 2 weeks of school into hurricane-like forces.  do you know how many assignments and readings i have to do tonight?  well […]

it’s hazelnut coffee.  and even though it’s been sitting in my apartment kitchen cupboard for the whole summer, it still smells good.  and because i’m not a huge coffee connoisseur, i happen to think it still tastes good too.  not too bitter.
