I love rainy days. They are such a nice change of pace. There is something so nice about waking up to the rain, lying in bed and realizing that for the moment you have nothing to do. Curling up on the coach with a good book and watching shows on the Style channel is awesome. For a couple of hours…. Then boredom sets in. And whenever I get bored on rainy days for some reason I get the urge to bake. Now for most people that’s completely fine. Then can figure out what they want to bake, bake it with no problems, and enjoying eating some of what ever they made. This however, is not the case when I decide I want to bake. OOOOO no. When I decide that I want to bake, I can never decide what to bake. I will spend HOURS on foodnetwork.com looking at recipes. Eventually I get overwhelmed and either A. give up on the whole baking idea or B. chose something at random. If at this point I still want to bake, things start to get really interesting. You see, I firmly believe that some people are born with “baking genes”. Someone born with “baking genes” is amazing at baking. They can cook, and I’ll go as far as saying that they can clean. I, Angela, do not have this “baking gene”, I suck at cleaning, I’m horrible at cooking, and I’m even worse at baking. I rush and never measure anything correctly, I burn myself if not the food too, and it never looks right. Sometimes I can make something that actually tastes ok… but it looks disgusting. All I can say is thank god it’s not 1940 anymore, because there is NO WAY I would make a good house wife. The final step of baking (not including cleaning up- because I’ll be honest anything that falls under the cleaning category I try to ignore) is eating whatever has been made. If I’ve made something that taste good, I can get over how it looks and eat it. If it tastes really good I end up eating way more of it then I should. Hence why I am not a size 0 and never will be. I have no self control when it comes to dessert. :)
Fortunately for me, and everyone else who would have been subjected to my baking, I gave up on the whole baking idea after not being able to decide what to make. However the picture below is from my last rainy day baking adventure when my friend Tim and I made a Coca Cola cake. Even though it looked disgusting it was delicious.

For a while now I have been looking to buy a new car. Not a brandy new car- but a different car for me. My 1996 Pontiac Grand Am has finally reached the end of its life and it is way past time for something new. Hence the theme for this week - Fast Cars And Freedom. (This weeks theme may also have to do with my love for Rascal Flatts…. J ). Car shopping is not as fun as I thought it would be. Trying to find a car that will be reliable, stylish, and on the cheaper end of the car buying spectrum is not an easy task. I guess it doesn’t help that I have no clue what type of car I want to buy. One week I want a Toyota Corolla, the next I want a Jeep Wrangler. Sometimes I just want to say screw it all and buy a corvett of a mustang. But in all reality I think I’m going to end up with a 1999 GMC Jimmy. Pretty pimp huh… yeah not really. But in all reality its something that will get me from point A to point B.. even in the winter! (With my car now, when it snows I’m either stuck at home cause my car can’t get out of the driveway, or stuck on my road cause my car can’t make it up my road). And I already have a name for the Jimmy… (no not Jimmy.. that’s just lame) Guzzy! .. Cause its going to be a gas guzzler!! Hahaha ( ps that laugh is not a sarcastic laugh, I actually do think Guzzy is a funny name and I laugh whenever I say it.) :)
