A Merry Christmas, to you and your kin!
Yesterday could not have been a better day. James and I woke up around eleven with hangovers, just to wake up and drink more.
Here, in Mississippi, it was nothing like I had expected. Although, I did come in pretty much blind to this experience.
With James’s family, it is easy enough to feel at home, but when so far away from one’s own family for the holidays, it was scary trying to...

Homemade Chocolate frosting
This frosting is incredibly awesome, because its smooth, thick, and hardens really well. I personally like hard icings! I put this on top of both chocolate chip cookies and spongy chocolate cake.
1 can of condensed milk 1 pkg of Hershey’s semi-sweet chocolate chips or 1/2 pkg of almond bark 1 c of cooled, condensed coffee, any flavor! (I recommend a cinnamon flavored or Jamaican roast)...

Crumble: 1 oz of sliced almonds 1 c of brown sugar 1/3 c granulated sugar 1 c of flour 1 T of cinnamon 1/3 t of nutmeg 1 stick of butter, melted
In a large bowl, mix the blueberry muffin mix,...

Pesto tarts
Filling: 15 oz of ricotta cheese (make sure it is NOT reduced fat!!!) 1/3 c. of grated Parmesan cheese 3 oz of pesto (Classico pesto sauce does the trick; it has everything in it, but homemade pesto is just as nice!)
1 roll of Pillsbury crescent rolls Olive oil
In a medium size glass bowl, mix the filling ingredients very well.
Same as the strawberry tarts, take the crescent dough and shape...
Strawberry Tarts
1 roll of Pillsbury crescent rolls Fresh or canned strawberries 6 square slices of creamed cheese brown sugar granulated sugar
Heat oven to 375 In a muffin pan, shape the cresent dough into round bowls. Coat each bowl with a layer of brown sugar.
If you are using fresh strawberries, make sure to soak them in sugar water ahead of time, probably for about a day in the fridge. If you are using...

I’m moving in with James today. Merry Christmas.
I love you, Macomb.
Today is going to be terrible.
I woke up from a night terror and started sobbing because I was so scared. Luckily, James woke up and calmed me down. It was the scariest thing I had ever experienced.
I just failed a Physics quiz, I don’t plan on going to my first class, I have a calculus test this morning at nine and I left my snow boots at home in Peoria.
At least it’s pretty...
Keep my name out of your damn mouth.
