In honor of the Virginia Tech Hokies, I thought I'd share this picture from our wedding (credit to our outstanding photographers). Right after the bouqet and garter toss, our DJ announced that a special surprise visitor came to wish us congratulations. He put on the VT fight song and in came the Hokie bird- a huge thrill since 90% of our guests are MAJOR Tech fans. He stayed and did the Hokie Pokie with all our guests (I think just about everyone participated!) and then was available for pictures. The visit was arranged by my parents as a special surprise for me and my hubby (we both attended VT) so this was really a special surprise and helped to further personalize our reception.

Title: The Known Universe by AMNH
The Known Universe takes viewers from the Himalayas through our atmosphere and the inky black of space to the afterglow of the Big Bang. Every star, planet, and quasar seen in the film is possible because of the world's most complete four-dimensional map of the universe, the Digital Universe Atlas that is maintained and updated by astrophysicists at the American Museum of Natural History. The new film, created by the Museum, is part of an exhibition, Visions of the Cosmos: From the Milky Ocean to an Evolving Universe, at the Rubin Museum of Art in Manhattan through May 2010.

Talk about a beautiful backyard wedding... Kristin and Jack were married in September '08 in Kristin's parents backyard in Florence, NJ. Bride Kristin already had a design for her aisle runner when she contacted us and she wanted it in all black against a white runner, which just looks so classic and clean. Congratulations to Kristin & Jack and thanks for sharing your beautiful pictures with us!
A Note from Kristin: "Our wedding day was perfect. And our aisle runner was exactly how we wanted it. I think it brought everything together. It was beautiful! Thank you!"
Amanda assembling her strawberry cupcakes, with real strawberries inside.
If you're just joining us, this is part 2 of my interview with Amanda of Is This Thing On?. You can find part one here.
Newly Domesticated: When did you really get into baking? Why?
Amanda:I really got into baking last summer. I made a batch or two of cupcakes with Kate of Domestic Empress in summer 2007, and I guess that piqued my interest in the whole cupcake world. But I stuck to the box mixes for about a year after that and only made cupcakes for parties and actual events.
My cupcake A-Ha moment came in summer 2008. I was taking a course taught by a professor who encouraged, really demanded, that we bring some sort of snack to each class meeting. For some insane reason, I ended up making three batches of cupcakes in a period of six days. I think those cupcakes all involved box mixes in some way, but they went over really well. Thats when I became addicted. Since that then-uncharacteristic burst, Ive made cupcakes, or some other really ambitious baked good, about once a week.
ND: How do you come up with new cupcake ideas? What is the creative cooking process?
A:I get most of my cupcake ideas and recipes from the blogs I read. Cookbooks also provide really great jumping points. Following recipes to the letter is fun, but I like messing with them too. I mean, what cupcake wont taste better with a bit of white chocolate ganache between the cake and icing?
Usually I start with a theme or an occasion and then try to choose flavors and decorations from there. The Hokie Hi-Hat cupcakes are a perfect example of this: a friend decided on his PhD program so I started with one of his favorite cakes and went from there. Other times I start with a flavor that I just want to bake. Like right now, I really want to bake a chai cupcake that I found on my cupcake calendar. Sadly, Ive been moving that recipe back for months because it just doesnt really fit. One day
Slicing up onions for orange chicken with vegetables.
ND: Biggest cooking blunder?
A:A few weeks ago I dropped an entire batch of lemon cake batter on the floor. It was so disappointing that I lost all words. I knew I should be crying or cursing or something, but I just couldnt believe that it actually happened. I stared at it, took a bunch of pictures and then started all over again.
Flavor-wise, I completely failed on the dry run for Christmas party egg nog cupcakes. I didnt have rum in the house, so I used bourbon. And I ended up eating four of the six cupcakes that weekend since I was just making them to test the recipe before the party. Something about the combination of bourbon and overwhelming sweetness has completely turned me off and I dont know that Ill ever be able to drink bourbon again. However the rum version was a big hit at the party.
When it comes to the savory, I usually slightly mess up each thing I cook. Im the girl who burns rice to the pan and forgets about the chicken in the oven. Cooking isnt as exact as baking, so I think there are more opportunities for me to totally fail. I take advantage of those opportunities more often than Id like.
A: Hmm thats tough. Id probably say that the dishes I made for Daring Bakers challenges have been my biggest triumphs. Each month, the Daring Bakers send out a challenge recipe for the members to make, bake, and blog. I joined the DBs in February, so Ive only completed two challenges so far (lasagna & cheesecake). The lasagna was okay and my taste-testers loved it; I, on the other hand, did not. The cheesecake was so ridiculously good, though, that I would have to say that was my biggest kitchen triumph. I was really scared going into the challenge, but I was really impressed with the results. I made a chocolate, espresso, heath cheesecake after the flavors in Giffords Maine Deer Tracks ice cream. I might still be in love with that cheesecake.
Amanda's homemade pasta, laid out to dry.
ND: Favorite cookbook or recipe you'd like to share?
A:I highly recommend "Cupcakes by the Cake Mix Doctor" by Anne Byrn.Each recipe starts with a box mix and results in amazing cupcakes. No one has to know. If you want to try out some of Byrns recipes before you invest in the book, I have a tag dedicated to the Cake Mix Doctor on my blog.
ND: What is something you want to try, but intimidates you?
A:Oh I would love be able to make pastries, the fancy, light, airy pastries that the pros are so good at. Ive always just assumed that I would fail miserably and end up with wet, flat, nasty dough, so Ive never tried. Each time the Daring Bakers put up a challenge I get equal parts nervous and excited that it will be some fancy shmancy pastry. Hopefully next month!

Well, we've finally hung up some curtains and four whole pieces of art! LOL. We're getting there.
This is our bedroom. I'm in love with these sheers, which were discontinued at Target. They let the PERFECT amount of light in. The painting was a project for one of my drawing classes in college.
I dug out my beloved "A." That awesome vase was from a home decor store called Space in Staunton. The inside of it is bubble gum pink and the top is cracked like a dinosaur egg.
I have a weakness for silhouettes; these were from a defunct store in Dayton, Va.
Happy Earth Day! It's true, green is the new black... and going green is easier than you might imagine. One of the simplest things you can do... reuse things you already have. Take a tip from RePlayGround and use your old cereal boxes to create a magazine holder for all those wedding magazines you have piled up around your house- super cute, creative, and best of all GREEN! Want to try creating these? Complete instructions can be found here.

I'm pretty sure that I've mentioned that in my "real life" I'm a school counselor. So when I came across this website I knew I would just have to share. The website is called "True Bride Confessions" and it's a forum where brides (past, present, and future) can annomously post about anything going on in their lives that they need to confess. Confession is, in my opinion, an extremely theraputic outlet. So often we hold in what we are thinking or feeling... sometimes we do this because we're embarassed of our thoughts and feelings, or most likely, we don't want to burden anyone else with our problems. What we don't realize is that by keeping things in we're placing a heavy burden on ourselves. It's time to let it out! Go and vent about your overbearing future mother-in-law or your lazy fiance who refuses to help with any of the planning... take advantage of this great outlet! The best part is... it's completely anonymous- so no one will ever know! Don't have anything to vent? Go check it out anyway- you may be able to relate to some of the confessions and hey, some of them may even make you feel better about your own life! *warning: some foul language
"TrueBrideConfessions is the first ever online confessional for brides, brides-to-be or brides -who've been. A place for women planning or reminiscing about their joyful wedding days who need to vent but don't want to ripple the wedding waters." -www.truebrideconfessions.com

Lyrics:
we'll end up numb
from playing video games
and we'll get sick
of having sex
and we'll get fat
from eating candy
as we drink ourselves
to death,
we'll stay up late
making mix tapes
photoshopping pictures
of ourselves
while we masturbate
to these pixelated
videos of strangers
fucking themselves
we are very busy people
we are very busy people
there's crusty socks
and stacks of pizza boxes
making trails straight
to the bed
and when we're done
sleeping we'll stay busy
dreaming of the things
we don't have yet
well there's a long
long list of chores
and shit to do before
we play, oh let's just
piss away the day
crank call the cops
down at the station
just for friendly
conversation requesting
songs they never play
let's hear the one
that goes like
we are very busy people
we are very busy people
but we've always got
time for new friends
so come on over and
knock on our door
it's open, what's ya
waiting for
we might be spawled
out on the floor
but we still make
lovely company
pull up a chair
i'll pour some tea
we'll shoot the shit
'bout everything
til you get sick
of politics and
flip on the tv screen
we stare at the tv screen
that donnie darko DVD
has been repeating for
a week and we know every
single word
i've got an ipod
like a pirate ship
i'll sail the seas
with fifty thousand
songs i've never heard
all the best of them
go fa la la la la la la la...
we are very busy people
we are very busy people
but we always have time for new friends...yeah
fa la la la la la la la...
