I really like to cook

I really like to cook and one of the things I wish I had done was gone to one of those culinary arts schools. I would love to be able to go to school and learn all of the neat things you can do with food. Matt tells me I should just do it but I don’t know. I have been looking around at them and found that no matter where you leave you can find a school close to you.

Maybe when we move out to California and I am looking for a career change I can try my hand at culinary arts school. I really like to cook and I love to try new recipes so think I would be great to broaden my knowledge. I don’t know if I would want to work in a restaurant or not but I think I would be awesome to be able to have the chance to. I always tell Matt that if we get rich one day and I do not have to worry about money I would like to work in a soup kitchen or something just volunteering. I guess I should just do what I want with what I have and not wait for the perfect conditions to come along because we all know if you wait for the perfect moment you will be waiting forever. Sometimes you just have to jump in and do it.

Great Explorations

We took Lani to Great Explorations this weekend, which is a children’s hands on museum in St. Pete.  I would not call it is museum, I would say it was more like a hands on activity place.  She loved it and so did we.  Her favorite thing to do was slide down the fireman’s pole.  It was really neat.  They had different rooms with different “jobs”.  You could be a fireman, a tv personality, a musician, a vet and many other things.  She loved the fact that she could just run around without Mom and Dad telling her to come here.  It is really set up as kid friendly and they are able to just be a kid.  Also, great tree house for them to climb in.

Hip pain

I am thinking about getting a magnetic bracelet. I have bursitis in my right hip and it is really giving me a lot of trouble lately. I was in a car accident about 3 years ago and they told me that is what brought it on. The doctor’s told me that I would have probably gotten it when I was older but the accident made it happen faster. My foot was on the brake pedal when I was hit from behind. I have a memory mattress on my bed and that helped when I was pregnant but I am not getting much relief from it now so I guess it is time to try something else. I know a couple of people that wear them and swear by them so I guess they can’t all be wrong.
