An Evening with Buddy Valastro:The Cake Boss



So last night my sister Nikki, my best friend Maritza, and her mommy also named Maritza went to “An Evening with Buddy Valastro:The Cake Boss. We all had such an amazing time. Let me start of by saying you have no idea how happy I was that it was in Staten Island. Nothing ever comes here. Normally we have to go in Manhattan to see any type of show. It was so nice to be able to drive there and home. When we got to our seats we were shocked to realize how close we were. As soon as we sat down we noticed Maritzas (the Bestie) tweet was on the screen with all our names. We had a little freak out moment hehe.



Then we saw that Mauro and Maddalena were seated in our row!. Everyone was crowding around to take pictures with them so obviously we did the same. I was so excited to met them. My sister, Maritza and Maritza all got to meet and take pictures with them. They even signed our book!. My sister also took a picture with Marie. She was the only one.





Ok now about the show. It was so awesome. Buddy was funny. charming, and held the attention of the entire audience. He brought people on stage to decorate cupcakes and we the audience were the judges. We didnt get to go on Stage or meet him :( but a co-workers kid did and I was so excited and happy to see them up there. He also told stories and how he started in the bakery and how he got it to where it is today. His little son Marco closed the show signing dynamite. It was so cute. All in all we had a great time and would so go see another show of his without question. I didnt think it was possible but after seeing him live I love him even more. We got out of the show at 10 so that meant I had to go home :( had school in the morning. As soon as I got home I had to have a muffin he really made me want desert of some kind. I had a Maple Kissed Pumpkin Muffin. The recipe from Happy Herbivore. http://happyherbivore.com/recipe/maple-kissed-sweet-potato-muffins/ They are so delicious, low fat, low calorie and Vegan! Perfect way to end my night. :)

Opening Day!


Today the weather is miserable I had little sleep and I have school projects up the wazoo. All factors that should land me in a bad more; normally it would but not today! No matter how miserable the day starts off it's all ok because It's opening day!! As soon as the first pitch is thrown (Fingers crossed weather holds up) it's officially the start of Yankee baseball! My world will now revolve around the Yankees season. So I apologize now when I start ranting and raving about the yankees lol I'm just overly passionate and they are able to make me scream out of anger one minute and scream out of excitement the next and I wouldn't have it any other way. There may be question marks about my yankees this season but I say that doesn't matter until the season actually starts. So right now all is great and I wont question a thing. I've learned my lesson about saying how good a team is based on the "paper team". when there in action then we can start the questions lol. For now just enjoy opening day and here's to the quest for #28! (which I'm confident will happen).

Baseball playoffs and Football season

OK so its fall and that means two things to me the baseball playoffs and Football season.i know it fits the very typical white american image but what can i say its what i am. i love those two sports and that what inm excited about. of course i like the leaves changing and the feel of fall and holidays like Halloween and thanksgiving but those are down the road and im focused on the beginning of fall. one step at a time. so first we start off with the most important things to me during fall, Baseball and football.

obviously i am very excited for both, i just wish they weren't so close to each other. My baseball team is the New York Yankees. i am obsessed with them and my Football team is the New York Giants who i love a little less then the Yankees I'm not gonna lie. The yanks are my top priority, the thing is I'm so so consumed with the baseball playoffs that i really cant focus my attention on football. any huge sports fan like myself with attest to this, when your team is in the playoffs that all you could think about, you eat and sleep playoffs and we all know the yanks are destined to make the playoffs and i really think they have a good shot at taking it all but im always gonna think that lol. I think the vets are doing real well and helping this team win a championship. Jeter is having a great season and rivera is rivera. Posada is doing pretty well his arm hasn't diminished that much and the rest are coming together. The team is coming together with all 9 guys everyday. from jeter to swisher they are all doing there part.(BTW i love how much he loves being a Yankee, he is really enjoying the game). the yanks are playing amazing baseball how can anyone not bet on them.

anyways with all that going on I'm finding myself having a hard time getting into football season. i too much in baseball mode to get excited. maybe it has something to do with the fact that the i'm unsure of the Giants team that was assembled. I'm worried about manning and how he is going to do this season. after plaxico went and became the stupid man on earth,manning lost everything. he couldn't click with anyone else. im worried that its going to turn out bad. i was really hoping that wining the super bowl wasn't a fluke but now im not sure. i got a taste of victory and i want them to have it again. it really depends on what Manning's going to do. i guess we will find out Sunday. i will keep my fingers cross and my eyes on Manniing, while flipping to the Yankee game of course.

R.I.P. Micheal Jackson

Ok so I was leaning on not writing anything about Michael Jackson. It’s not that I didn’t think his music was good it’s just that my generation didn’t see MJ for the musical genius he was, to us who were born in the 90's we saw him as this crazy guy who used to be black turned white and played with little boys (weather or not in a sexual manner). We didn’t see the side the people of the 80's did. So I didn’t want to be one of those people writing about how amazing he was or how crazy he was. I never really cared either way about Mj but I had to share my feeling so here they go. First I will discuss the media coverage now but then I will talk about my own feeling toward him. Read it if you like 

Fist When I heard I was just shocked it was unexpected. That’s all I took of it. I knew that there would be a huge media spectacle and strange information but what came is just crazy. The custody battles and weather or not the he adopted the kids. I m getting tired of tall the crazy things going on with him. Usually I love crazy media gossip but I guess when it comes to MJ I expect strange stuff so to me its like who cares. I know to a lot of people he was everything but it’s time to let him rest in peace for at least his kids sake. His kids are going to be scarred enough. All this will make it worst. Everyday something comes out that even stranger then the next. I m not saying we shouldn’t find out why he died but why does every little detail of his personal life have to come out
So the reason I wrote this blog was to state my ideas of MJ. He was the crazy guy would did weird things and used to be black and his music is fun to dance to (especially with tiffany). When I was younger I m going to be honest I was afraid of him. I was afraid of him because I only saw him as a white guy and my brother goes to me “you know he used to be black” . That scared me so I thought he was scary. So I know him as the weird guy, I just can’t help it. As I got older I started to listen to some of his music. It just wasn’t for me. But I do admire his musical career. What he did for music was something else. No matter what his personal issues were (he never was found guilty and I respect the law.) He changed music forever. I respect him for that and like I said even though I didn’t like his music personally I liked what he did for music. No matter what type of music you like he def was a part of your life if you’re a music lover just for the simple fact that he made music history and many artist today are the way they are because of them. So for music, the day he died was a sad day. Lets honor him through his and not his personal choices because love him of hate there never be another Michael Jackson. R.I.P.

P.S -----everyone who read this (one person lmao thanks tiff) share your feelings on MJ, could or bad. Thanks enjoy life everyone.
