Fifty is the new thirty.

As you know, my mom turned 50 yesterday...





My dad sent this picture to me. My mom looks HOT. 50? Try 30.

a slice of my cake experience

This weekend I was able to go to the CAKE concert with my cousin LJ and my friend Gigs. I had a blast! The weather was perfect and it was nice to finally enjoy summer with an outside concert. Before the concert, we went to a cafe called One World. The mission of this cafe is to end world hunger. That is a hefty mission, but they are approaching it the right way. It is set up like a community kitchen, they grow and make the food at their location. There are no set prices, only suggested prices and you choose the portions so there is no waste. ALL your money goes directly to charity. I first thought the cafe sounded a little sketch...but I turned out to be really impressed with the whole thing. Anyways, back to CAKE. I love them. I love John McCrae's voice (singing or talking). I love their "anti-machine" attitudes. I love them madly... (ok, that was cheesy. but I like them a lot.)












It was also my MOM's 50th Birthday!! That is a HALF a century folks! My mom is my best friend and I am grateful for her and everything she does for me. She is truly an elect woman and a blessing in everyone's life. I love her. (more than CAKE) As, fifty cent (how appropriate) would say...I love you like a fat kid loves cake. (also very fitting for my weekend) Happy Birthday, Mom!

to be or not to be?

So I have been struggling with this decision for about a month now and I just cannot decide what to do. So I have left it up to you to decide for me. Here is the question: Should I cut my hair short again, or let it continue to grow out?

To help with your decision I have posted some pictures of me with both do's.

Short Hair






Long Hair
