Vegan Deliciousness!!

There is a fantastic food truck (now also has a bakery) called Kind Kitchen. I loved them the first time I had their Indian Taco. Fantastic. They support local farmers, make vegan AND gluten free items.

The coffee shop I work for recently incorporated them into our pastry selection, a brilliant idea. 

I had to do some prep work and walked in to these beauties:

Vegan- Gluten Free Red Velvet Cupcakes. 

I shouldn't have to say more, but I will go on...
 


I want this for all major events in my life.
Valentines Day.
Birthdays.
Anniversaries.
Just because.
"Oh we got into a fight, here's a 'sorry I made you mad cupcake'"

...LittleMiss's birthday too...

It's not at all dry, like you might expect of a gluten free pastry. And the 'cream-cheese' frosting isn't like the traditional cream-cheese frosting (that I honestly am not much of a fan of...). Which completely makes sense because it's vegan 'cream-cheese' frosting. I honestly haven't had many tries of regular Red Velvet cakes, but this one is just...fantastic.

If you are ever in Arkansas you have to try them.

Phone Addicts

Have you ever noticed how more and more people are becoming more and more addicted to their phones? I've always noticed, but never realized just how bad I am.

A member of the gym offered to give me their old screen off of there phone since they had a new one and put it on mine. We had a little hick up when there was miss-communication that I have a 4 not a 4s(wish I did though! ;] ) But everything went well, until the end. When the screen would turn on but the touch wouldn't work. So he is going to give it another go tonight, if it still doesn't work then Peacock is going to give me a substitute phone until this one is fixed. He's pretty awesome.

Which by the way...well Let me finish my technology rant....

I hate, absolutely HATE,when I see a couple out and they are both on their phones. Really?? Can you not find something, something in this world of MILLIONS of things to talk about?? Yes I understand, they could be looking for something to prove a point or just happened to have just gotten on their phones. But that is not always the case. Pinterest, facebook, chive, iFunny, and the list goes on and on of apps that people have just become engrossed in. Don't get me wrong I love me some pinterest, and my family mostly communicates via facebook, I even used to love Chive.

When ever Peacock comes over and we're watching a movie then turn to our electronics(yes I am included), after a few minutes I tend to make a (snide) remark about how much I love that we aren't even talking, we're just playing on our gadgets. It usually works; we either go back to our movie or pick some sort of topic to talk about.


Now on to my next topic.

I care about Peacock. A lot.

I managed to invest more and begin to care a lot more about him than I meant to or wanted to right now. He knows this, I told him last night. He is going through a lot of stress right, and we are going to take a step back. Not a big one, but one that will take a bit of stress off of him, until he can have all of this stress(as much as he can anyways) gone. We are still going to talk and hang out when we can, but not quite as much.  I hope this is making sense, I'm reading it and it barely is to me.

Peacock and I care a great deal about each other. There is no getting around that. He can calm me down and make me laugh at the same time faster than anyone else I know. He's been fantastic so far. Not saying he's perfect, but neither am I. We've had a tiff or two, but we're human. We've grown together from them, not apart.



Lets see other than that...Work is going great. The holiday cheer has really made everyone (members and staff) a bit jollier than usual.


Hope y'all have a great TUESDAY.

Quick Phone Post

Here I am again. At the pool.

I've had a few eurekas and revelations in the past two days.

It's time to act like an adult.

(more frequently)

Big girl pants go on and stay on.

Gotta go.

Early to Class

Here I am again, early for Communications Class.

Lets see....

Nannying has now been dropped to just Tuesdays. Which is perfect! I am failing algebra and think I finally found a tutor!!! Yay! But LG's parents completely understand that I need to focus on school work and have agreed to let me just nanny on Tuesday and her Poppy will pick her up on Thursdays. LG is doing much better at minding me and letting me do some of my school work while I'm watching her. Next month is her birthday so I'll be getting her a new chapter book! She really enjoys reading and loves horses so the book will be a children's chapter book about horses. :)

My diet has been consisting of coffee and fruits.

And veggies. It's all I have time for anymore. Not to mention I hate to cook for just myself; if I had someone over, I would cook for a few hours and not worry about it. So hopefully I can talk a friend into coming over so I can do just that. The plan will probably be to cook tons so I don't have to cook and just grab n go on days I don't have time, or energy for that matter.

A few necessities I'll be needing to get ASAP are: a coffee maker, microwave, storage dishes, mop, broom/ dust pan and vacuum. Along with a Dutch Oven because I have been craving chocolate covered coffee beans since I did that last coffee post! Oh how I am addicted.


oh! Class is starting! Gotta go!
