Spring Cleaning

Spring cleaning Jannette and Sam style. That doesn't necessarily mean that we clean anything. It just means that we rearrange all our furniture. It is also reading days and that means that I am supposed to be studying for my finals that I have coming up but that didn't happen either. I found out though that moving furniture in 4 rooms is tiring and I would not be a good moving person.
So this is my new arrangement. That thing under the window is actually the top part of my desk but I decided that I didn't like it like that so it is now my new window table. It's great for pictures and flowers in front of an open window.

bridal shower

Jess, Linds, Kierstin and Me at Kierstin's bridal shower tonight. It was so much fun to see Linds again... it's been too long. We'll get the opportunity to see eachother again together at the Draper temple when Kierstin gets married at the end of this month.

The bridal shower was fun as well. We played games and Kierstin opened presents.

It made me want to get married as well. Out of the 8 girls that lived in Kensington my sophomore year... all but 3 of us are married. Sad day. Saying the word 'EVENTUALLY' won't help.

Oreos anyone?

Since Christmas, Jennifer and I have been looking for this oreo cookie cake mold. The mold came seperately from the cake and frosting mixtures. It was supposed to come out looking like an oreo and taste like one as well.

It sorta worked. The lady at Williams Sonoma told us that in order for it to work then you had to liberally grease the molds. I thought I had done that well enough... apparently not. The cakes came out in about 2 or 3 different pieces. I tried to reassemble them and it worked well enough for this picture. It was very crumbly but it tasted so good. I think it tasted better as it sat and hardened a little. I think that after a day or so it did actually taste like an oreo. Just sweeter. But it's a cake, what can you expect. I think I will try it again in a couple of months after I have lost the pounds that this cake made me gain. I will do like the lady at Williams Sonoma said though- "Throughly grease the molds."

That was my excitement of this past weekend.
