Valentines Day and Ace of Cakes

Though I had to work all Valentines Day, it still was a pretty good weekend. Early that day I went into work to help out in case they needed me. I got two tables, and then they let me off pretty early. Since both I, and a two co-workers, Russ and Brandon, were let off at the same time, we went to Rice King just down the street where we met my dear roommate Becky. Good food, fun chat.

We had every server, it seemed like, scheduled for work that night. And since there were about 3 people lower than me on the list, I did not have to stay until closing that night, though I was scheduled for it. I got off early and met some co-workers who were already at TGIFridays celebrating a happy Valentines Day!! The picture below is of all of us: Greta, Kymbra, Becky, Kelly, Bobby, me, and Jarom. I love Friday's, and fun company.

Then the sweetest thing happened when I got home. Becky knew that I wish I got packages in the mail sometimes. She and Sammy both got at least one apiece for Valentines Day from friends and family. So she had gotten up that morning and put together a "package" for me and set it up on my laptop so I could see it when I got home. She is so super sweet, and put a lot of thought into it. Love you Becky!!!

The next night, Sunday, I went home for our Annual Reese Movie-Thon. It started awhile ago when our mom was out of town over Valentines Day. We rent a bunch of movies and have special hogie sandwiches. This year our movies were "The Secret Life of Bees" and "Henry Poole Is Here". I give them a rating of B+ and B- respectively.

And if you are a roommate or a member of my family living in Salt Lake, you are probably aware that I have become slightly obsessed with a show on the Food Network called Ace of Cakes. It is a reality show set in Baltimore about a custom cake making business called Charm City Cakes. They make these crazy awesome cakes, and the cake decorators themselves are pretty entertaining to watch. My two favorites are Duff and Geof. What talent. If you are at all interested in my pictures (I tried to post a clip, but couldn't for some reason), check it out on the Food Network website, or fancast.com.
