How did I do over the weekend??

Sooo, this Saturday my best friend, Brittany, and my friend from culinary school, Nicole, went to Noche on Saturday night to just hang out. Britt and I got there and were instantly reminded of the bars in Athens, Ga! It definitely took us back :-) Anyway, Brittany went on and on about how she was about to get drinks and I thought I was gone have steam coming from my ears because I couldnt drink. Brittany reminded me that I could have a drink on Sunday(midnight) but I had been back and forth about whether or not I was going to actually drink on Sundays. Well the clock struck 12 and...... yea, i broke down and had a drink. Sadly, it was not even that great :-/ I took this as a sign that I didnt need to drink at all. Well, Sunday after church we went to my aunts house for her house blessing and i had some wine then too. smh @ myself! This Sunday though I am definitely NOT planning to have drink so PRAY FOR ME cause I definitely feel like I gave into temptation. On the up side, I enjoyed my family on Sunday. It felt like forever since we were together enjoying each others company so I needed it. LOVE THEM!!

In culinary news, we are doing cakes and its wearing me out! We have not been getting breaks and every night I have been leaving with an attitude cause either I am hungry, my feet hurt or my back hurts. UGH! I know it will all pay off in the end. That is what gets me through. Today, I started my bakery hunt for potential externships. There is one place that I think I would LOVE to go but I am trying to have an open mind and check out some places. Today I went to Blanchard Bakery in Hapeville, Ga. UHHHHH...not the place for me. It was a very small place owned by a family but there was nothing in the bakery to choose from :-/ Needless to say, all i got was cookies and the one I ate was okay but I was definitely hoping to get some pastries (lol) so not the case. I had been thinking that I would like to have someone accompany me to help me choose and i thought of my bff because she will indulge in a sweet treat with me anytime!!! Tomorrow, we have a lunch date at Mary Macs (YES!!) and are gonna visit Chocolate pink( I am very excited about this trip because I have heard so much about it and the colors of this place are the EXACT colors I have chosen for my own place...and no i am NOT changing my colors lol). I think I might drag her to Highland Bakery and maybe Alons although I am not as excited about Alons. I need to be making a decision about my externship VERY VERY SOON! ::anxiety starting to set in lol::

Anywho, be blessed! And until next time....SMOOCHES!

  1. I had the same struggle with my sweets on sunday! not to mention someone bought me a KING SIZED kit-kat on friday!! LOL But i resisted the urge and am gonna try my very best to not partake in sweets on sundays either.

    I have pretty good reviews on Highland Bakery, we've been pleased thus far and Choc. Pink had tasty cake at a bridal show i attended! Happy searching!

  2. Hello there! Thanks for the updates. Don't b mad at yourself. That is whyhe died on the cross for our sins and shortcomings. He already knew the Spirit is willing but our flesh is weak. Repent and start afresh the same day or next day.

    I enjoyed the quality family time too. We missed our New Years fellowship so that threw us off.

    Pray as you make your visitations and inquiries. Allow Gods spirit to direct you to where he wants you to be! I'll be praying for you as you seek His discernment in your decision.
    Love,
    Auntie Bree

  3. E-leecee!
    I will certainly be praying for you. Because I think the point is to sacrifice and prepare ourselves for the awesome thing Christ did. Just say no to the drinks. Or rather, just say no to your flesh! :)
