Cooking Lessons

For the past two years, my food choices have been a variety of lean cuisines, instant soups and ramen noodle. Both of parents are chefs but the cooking gene somehow skipped me.

When my friend, Steven, learned of my eating habits, he became determined to make me into a chef. He used to be the chef at Farm 255. Steven made it his personal mission to teach me some basic recipes to make on my own. So far, we've made shrimp pasta, turkey artichoke sandwich and strawberry shortcakes (from scratch!)

yum. =)

It's finally here!...



I finally have my new ASUS eee laptop!!

I feel like it was months ago when I first heard about this beautiful, ultra-portable, 2 pound laptop. My friend, John, knew that I was looking for a small laptop that wasn't going to cost me a fortune. I wanted one to complement my Toshiba laptop, one that I could carry around in my purse. He recommended the ASUS eee: 9 inches wide, wireless connection, microsoft compatible and only $400.

I am THRILLED! :)
