Food...Fairs...

As of late I've been having this bad habit of popping my camera out and photographing everything (well, almost everything) I eat. I sit there and play with my camera and food for a good 5-10 minutes before I eat it. Some would call it a bad habit but the thing is, that I love food.  I don't want to sound like a fat ass or anything but I really really enjoy eating. My friends and family complain that I take forever to eat, but it's because I like to sit there and really enjoy and savor my food.

    So I guess this is my warning to you, don't mind me when you see me making overly excited and cheesy faces with food in some pictures from here on. I'm trying to stick to something I know about and love to write about. Not necessarily write about it but share some of my thoughts and my ideas with you while at the same time keeping you entertained.I also want to get back in touch with my photography side.

This past weekend My mom,brother,his gf and cousins drove up to my Godmother's house in Orlando for her birthday. I hadn't seen her in over 3 years! She attended my sister's wedding but time passed by so quickly that night that we didn't feel it was enough, so we arranged to visit her. 

    I had a blast, one of the nights we stayed there we went to Sonic's and then went to a little theme park they had there in Kissimmee.They didn't have a huge selection of rides,just a small roller coaster, bumper cars,laser tag, about 6 kiddie rides and a couple other rides and things of that sort for adult. A lot of little stores and candy shops. 

  Sophia got on her first ride ever. She got on a smaller version of the spinning teacups, and surprisingly wasn't dizzy when she got off. She mostly just walked around with my mom and ate cotton candy. 

When we were heading back home we hit a couple stores and I got some really nice running sneakers. I'm excited to start working out again. Now I just have to figure out a plan for my food. Believe it or not I don't s diet, I think it's ridiculous. I just switch things around make them work with one another and still eat what I want. I still loose the weight :)

I'm a terrible blogger.

Mrs. and Mr. Pradel!

I've been in the middle of so many things, it's kind of exciting and very tiring but I like it. I like the "corre corre" as my mom would say.

I wanted to share some of my favorites photos floating around from my sisters wonderful wedding.

It was so much fun and so beautiful (<----that's an understatement). 

My sister got her dream wedding and I'm so happy and glad I was part of it.

Maids of Honor, Bride and Bridesmaid.

Sophie and Dk. Flower Girl and Ring Boy.

Got a lust for life.

Aww, She started crying halfway there.

And he started crying also!!

This captured us very well, let me tell you.

My handsome date, Sir Calabaza.

This has got to be one of my favorites, I WILL explain why another time.

Jean's Dad and Rosie.

My father and Sophie. That weekend was their first time meeting!

Michi, The Awesome Wedding Cake Topper.

                                      

       

These two are bellissimo!

Still going 20,000 miles an hour!

Soon, whenever I get a break from this busy life I've been thrown into,

 I'll be posting some new pictures and videos.

The wedding was beautiful and so much fun!  All that damn work paid off!

I got a new little point and shoot camera. I'm in love with it.

:)

Until next time

xoxo :)

Happy Valentines!

Wish I had more time for more things!

Tickling my Shobbis

I don't know but ever since Sans Geebins (Thanksgiving) time seems to fly right by. I can't believe that we're in February already! Damn. I really haven't had much time to update this. Seems like this year is going to be one of my busiest years yet and I'm completely ready for it. Stand in my way, and yes, you will get knocked the f..down :)

Lil foodie in the making

I'm so glad I already filed for my taxes, got that off my to-do list. Made an appointment for Sophie to see a pediatric gastroenterologist, I suspect she might be allergic to Gluten..I pray that she's not but she has a lot of the signs of Celiac Disease. I can't even begin to imagine the nightmare this is going to be, It's bad enough she's allergic to the protein in Cow's milk. This little girl loves to eat! Any and everything you give her! Just to give you a little idea of what I'm talking about,

"If you have celiac disease and eat foods with gluten, your immune system responds by damaging the small intestine. Gluten is a protein in wheat, rye and barley. It is found mainly in foods but may also be in other products like medicines, vitamins and even the glue on stamps and envelopes." 

  

Lil Miss Thang

I have to start a sketch of the groom's cake I'm making for Jean. I know it's going to be poker/Vegas themed. It only makes sense to incorporate those two; He loves poker and he proposed in Vegas. I also have to go find a dress,shoes,hair ties for Sophia for the wedding. And lets not forget my dress alterations, because even though it was custom made to my exact measurements, it doesn't fit because of the weight I've lost in the past 3 or 4 months. Yay go me! I don't know the exact number  but I can tell you I went about 3 sizes down in shirts and about 4 in pants. Oh it's so much easier to shop at stores now. haha I need to stay away from the mall. I also have to get shoes,decide how I'm going to wear this dress (there's 50+ ways to wear it!),do my hair, help my mother find a dress for herself. 

Que fajas, ni que fajas.

This weekend I'm supposed to help my sister paint her house.This past weekend I helped her do some spring cleaning and we didn't even cover 20% of the house..ah the horror that awaits us! After the wedding, my mother is supposed to be moving, so we have to repack our lives and find a new place.

I love these, they're so cute!

Playing with her "button"

 All while this is going on, I'm trying to figure out whats the best school to go to with the best curriculum for either Culinary or Pastry Arts. It's astonishing to me that Miami has a myriad of places where you can indulge in some of the best tasting food but doesn't have a variety of schools where you can go to and learn how to master your skills in the kitchen. Tsk tsk Miami, tsk tsk.  (note to self :This is another reason why I must get out of here) 

Please bear with me while I try to balance all these and other things in my life.(Along with this blog.) Thanks :)

This is all her, posing on her own.
She does this when she sees a camera or phone pointed at her. 

My awesome HoodieBuddie. Everyone should get one!

Of course I have videos for you guys to see. This little pulgita is growing up so quick! Thanks to technology I will be able to show her how quick she grew and what a character she was from day one :)

Her walking to the car. She loves being independent. 

She LOVES to dance, and when I say LOVE I mean she dances for and to EVERYTHING!

With my sisters boxers, Tyson and Roxy.
