You may have heard the news over at my sister's blog. The rumors are true. I am moving to Missouri where my family is.
(source) I have gotten many reactions from friends and family. Most happy. Some worry. I feel, good, overwhelmed and nervous. It's strange to know that in a month or so (I will be moving the first week of Aug) my whole life will change. New living situation (and new possibilities with that). New job. New business (Elsie and I are adding on a bakery and sweet shop to the local Red Velvet store). It's a lot for one girl. But it's exciting. So to calm my nerves I'm been making homemade chocolate ice cream and delicious grape granita.
I'll share the recipe with you soon. I swear:) Any big changes in your life this year?
congrats! i'm all for big changes!
i'm moving into a new house with my boyfriend tomorrow, so i can relate a little. I'm looking forward to settling down a little though. I've moved 4 times in the last year!
now if I can just get MY sister to move here and open a sweet shop with me - everything would be perfect!

I just read it on Elsie's blog and came here to check :). I'm really happy for you! Can't wait to see what you will be doing together!! It's so inspiring seeing you really 'doing things' and making your dreams come true.
Your banner is so funny! I saw it just now. When I first entered you blog now I couldn't see it -my internet is a bit slow so the text appeared first and I quickly strated reading and scrolling down and then saw you mentioned a new weird banner in the post below. I scrolled up to see it and I think I just strated laughing the moment I saw your picture! It's so cool :).
Oh, and about getting really excited over a new Harry Potter film - it's totally ok :). Although... I really don't like the movies so much... They are juse SO not good enough :(. They really don't do justice to J.K. Rowling's masterpiece... :( :( :( Peter Jeckson did an *amazing*, *excellent* & *beautiful* job with The Lord of the Rings and I wish the Harry Potter films were the same... but they're SO not. Ugh.

Wow awesome, though it's a change, it's really awesome to be back with your family, I'm very close with my sisters too, and as you asked about big changes this year, i moved with my sister too!! And I looove living with her, such a kindred, long talks every night among cups and cups of tea, muffins (elsie's recipe w/modifications, deli), home made bread... It's quite nice to read about other sisters around the world, as friends as me & my sis :)
congrats and go ahead!
