Halloween DIY Wreath

So I have a week off from school before I have to go back for Fall semester. I decided to start on my Halloween decorations since I know I won't have time to be creative while I'm in school. I took advantage of my mini vacation and attempted my first Halloween wreath. I'm not too sure how I feel about it. I'm sure practice makes perfect but deco mesh is hard to handle!! Geeze! Maybe I'm just a newbie still but hopefully my next one is better. I think it looks good from afar but to me it doesn't look right. Maybe I'm being too critical because my hunny says it looks awesome! ( he's my number one fan :) lol ) but none the less here it is. It's actually fairly easy to make and only took me about 10-15 min. I know it's barely August but I couldn't help myself, every craft store already has its Christmas decorations up!! I had to get started!

Jack of all trades, Master of ONE

So I was looking back at when I started my blog and some things have changed. I decided I needed to update! Well back in November of last year I was contemplating going back to school for my Masters. Well, currently I am about to finish my first Semester in the MBA program at University of La Verne! Actually, I just took my accounting final tonight and tomorrow I have a marketing final! I should be studying but I get distracted easily :) Shocking! hehe anyway, I love being back at school and it works for us because my hubby works during the day, and is able to take care of our daughter in the evenings when I go to school. I am taking two courses per semester, (its a big workload! Much more than the undergraduate program, so I want to pace myself.) I hope I did well on my accounting final! I hate accounting by the way. Praying for a B or better! I'm being optimistic!

So any who, my daughter is now 17 months! WOW how the time flies. Everyday I look at her and she is getting so big its amazing! Her little personality is really starting to show! I love it!! On Wednesday I'm going shopping with my mom because we are going to get started on her Halloween costume. I'm so excited! If it turns out the way I plan its going to be awesome! I can't wait!

Well, its getting late and I need to sleep and study all day tomorrow since I've procrastinated on studying this whole night. Oh well I'm confident I'll do well. I graduated with my BA in Communications which means one thing: I am the Jack of all Trades, Master of One - Marketing. :) It comes very easy to me. Its a simple concept yet effective. But I wont go in to that tonight, I'm sleepy.

Goodnight !

Truly authentic Mexican salsa!

I made my moms simple yet tasty spicy Mexican salsa the other day and it tasted exactly like hers always does! (That's what I was going for). It's quick and easy to make and you can put it on soups, Carne Asada tacos, chicken tacos, rice, beans, ANYTHING! My favorite is on a plain corn tortilla, maybe add a little lemon and salt to it and whala! Perfection! (I'm so Mexican I know but I swear its the best way to eat it). Un taco de chile. Translation: a chile taco. Yum. It's super easy to make.. Just little cherry tomatoes, roasted in a comal (I used 4, only because I'm the only one in my home to eat chile, otherwise you could add more), 2 garden chiles, also roasted (don't know the name but I could post a pic) salt to taste, and a molcajete to grind it all up in. Super easy!
