Super easy!!

Until we meet again..

Goodbyes are never easy. One of my best friend's Naomi left the other day to become a nanny in Pittsburgh. It is gonna be such a fabulous adventure for her! But I miss her already!! Just another thing on the list of changes. She's off to be a nanny until February and I just ended my term of being one. It is definitely sad to think I won't be able to see Lyla 5 days a week. I love that little girl. But it is time, time for me to move on and make some new changes.
 
I am looking into culinary schools that have a spcific major in baking/pastry. The dream down the line is to open my own cupcake bakery complete with delivery service. Because sometimes you just crave a cupcake and want to order one! So that is the first step. I found 2 schools I really like. None in Wischonsin. One of them is called Le Cordon Bleu, I'm looking at the ones in Chicago and Minnesota. And then there is The Art Institute, I'm looking at the Nashville one. It is just so scary to think of moving on my own to a brand new city. Ahhh so much to think about!! I'm going to be talking to the school representitives today and see how it sounds. I
 
I just need to pray more and worry less.
 

 
This is just gonna be a year of many new, scary and exciting chapters!

Strawberry Souffle!!...umm yumm!!

I have a new goal: Do something I have never done before at least once a month.
 
Well I am proud to say that I have already done 2 and it is only the 9th! Hip hip hooray!! Let's see here which one shall I share today...hmmm. I'll share the wonderful strawberry souffle!! I have ALWAYS wanted to make a souffle and so I decided I would give it a try!
 
My best friend Tav and I are obessed with baking. So we decided to make a blog dedicated to baking and share our lovely treats with the world. Also howto's and funny stories. I am really excited to get started on it! And to be able to do it with my best friend makes it so much better :)
 
Here is the link if you wanna take a look :) It's called "Sweet Treats from my Best Friends Kitchen"






 
Luckily making the souffle wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. The hardest part for us was the "stiff peaks" it calls for 4 eggs and we ended up going through 9..note to self: don't play with the yolk. Oopsie haha. When we took them out of the oven they were risen and beautiful but after like 10 min they deflated a bit haha. But they tasted delicious!!!
