Limeade and Cake

Check me out, blogging twice in two days!
If you are wondering if you should be impressed, the answer is Yes.

I don't know about you guys, but I am ready for the summer!  Although I will be working more, the weather will be warm and I won't have school.  What more can you ask for?

Isn't it crazy how time flies by and we don't even notice until we stop ourselves in our busy lives and suddenly realize, woah, I have two years of college under my belt.  I remember graduating high school like it was yesterday!
But am I the only one who is so shocked how fast [and slow] time can go by?  It is kind of scary, actually.

On a completely different note, but surely not foreign to this blog—food.

Black Bean Burger Breakfast Burrito

Probably two months ago or so me, Dad and Ryan were trying to come up with dinner.  After much contemplation, Ryan suggested making a breakfast burrito and using our Black Bean Burgers from Costco as the "meat" part of it.  It. Was. So. Good!   

Jalapeños, Red Onions, Eggs, Black Bean Burgers, Cheese and of course hot sauce all on top of a whole wheat tortilla!

 I would also like to briefly mention my birthday which was back in February.  I only want to touch on it because I have to show you the awesome cake my dad baked for me as well as some amazing drinks Mark and I made.

Hooray, 20th birthday! I remember when I was 11 years old.  I thought it was so cool I was going to turn "The Double One" as I called it, and here I am 9 years later.  I'm tellin' you, time is strange!

The Cake

was absolutely delicious and so pretty! 

My dad is pretty dang good at cooking/baking and he won't admit it. 

The light sucks and I took this with my phone, but isn't it cute?!

....and what are those all over it??

  BLUEBERRIES!

Although I am a chocolate fiend, as I like to phrase it, the cake was Vanilla with vanilla frosting with blueberries in the cake and all over it and I couldn't have asked for anything more!

TAY-STEE!

The Drink

was just like the Brazilian Limeade at Tucano's and it is amazing! 

It is Mark's favorite drink so we had to make it when he found a recipe.

 Please try to excuse the microwave, paper towels and light switches in the background...

We had nowhere else to take the picture so I had to make do.

I'm sure I will write you again at some point or another.  

Have a fantastic rest of your weekend!
