The Cake Fairy

Today was a pretty standard weekend here in PA.

I dont do much but hope that its nice out so I can go for a walk and explore on my own, but the sun didnt come shining through my window this morning to wake me up. I slept in.

After a few hours of lounging around watching youtube videos about history, I asked Cassie if she wanted to explore the town.

We decided to take a visit to a local winery/brewery, Stone & Key Cellars, to do some tastings. They had quite the spread of things to taste and we were overwhelmed! Fruit wines and your typical whites and reds, cider and mede! I started out with some of the red fruit wines and Cassie with the white fruits. They were all a bit sweet for me so I moved right into the bold reds. We got four tastings each and shared our tastes but also, the bartender was super cool and gave us more tastings of whatever he wanted! He was talking to us about the local area and what breweries to check out next in our exploration of Pennsylvania. Going to wine tastings where the bar tender is willing to give you extra tastes is the best! We will definitely be going back there to try more things.

After our tastings, we realized that we had too much fun there and had missed the movie we wanted to go see. But thats alright, we hung out at World Market and marveled at how expensive all our favorite chocolates were before heading to a place to get some delicious frozen yoghurt! I do love me some froyo. There, I beat Cassie three times at connect four which I owe my skill to my summers practicing with the kids at before and after care in MKE. That game is one of my favorites to play.

When we got back to camp, we got some dinner and watched a movie while we ate. How to Train Your Dragon is such a good kid movie. No shame!

The movie ended and I got up to go into the kitchen and noticed the HUGE tray of cake that was sitting on our dining table. I had NO idea where it came from because before the movie it wasn't there  and we both didnt hear anyone come in to drop it off! There was more cake in the kitchen! This cake just came out of nowhere and there is no way that this household will be able to eat it all before it goes bad. Anyone want cake?

Bio Bay, PR positives

The coolest part of our trip to Puerto Rico was definitely the Bioluminescent Bay in Vieques [side note, bioluminescence is a big word, mostly it just means stuff that lights up but scientifically it means 'bio'-life, 'lumin'-light, 'escence'-to put forth. So, life that puts forth light!] It was an experience that I cannot easily put into words. The night started out a bit strange. We got picked up at our hostel at 9pm, along with 5 other girls, by a thirty-something, long-haired gentleman. He walked us about a block to the van that would transport us to the bio-bay. The van was, well, to put it nicely, a fixer-upper. It had bench seats which were collapsing, the roof fabric was falling down, it puttered around and squeaked during turns. Ty and I joked that we were paying 40 bucks to get murdered in this van especially when we turned down a dirt, side street that was full of pot holes. We slowly lumbered along this road for a few minutes until we made it to our ...

Hopefully, Im Back in the Game

Ive been horrible with posting to my blog and Id like to take a minute to apologize to myself for not keeping up with it and then the say a little sorry to people who actually follow my blog, and if you keep up with it then... go you! Just a little update on whats going on here and then Im hoping tomorrow Ill be able to write a blog about how awesome my cousins wedding was this past weekend! So, Im currently in Philly working where I was this Spring at College Settlements. I love my coworkers and I love where Im at. I feel comfortable and happy at work, now only if I was closer to the city for my social life... I have to brag about my dude who just started a new job in DC as the captain of an education vessel. He's adulting so hard and Im so proud. Makes me want to step up my game and start semi-adulting. I want to get a job there after this job is over for the fall. So, If you've got any leads... This summer/Fall have been a bit insane, in a good way.  I sp...
