This Bible verse describes my precious friendship with Anne, I always leave a better person after spending time with her. For the last 4 (plus) years I have been blessed to travel around the U.S. and the world with Anne. This year, we both celebrated big changes in our lives....me moving to Paris for Le Cordon Bleu and Anne moving to Amsterdam to work as a buyer for Calvin Klein (and yes, I got the hook up on a gorgeous CK jacket that will be featured in the 2014 spring collection---thanks Anne.)

| Best way to see the beautiful canals in Amsterdam is by boat and of course a Dutch beer. |
 |
| Precious cheese shop next to Anne's house. Cheese, heart and a mouse.....about sums up my feelings towards cheese. |
 |
| Borrowed Anne's bike and toured the city, gorgeous city. |
 |
| Flowers grow so beautifully in Amsterdam, the weather is perfect. |

| Great spa day to wrap up a great weekend. This is the violin centerpiece when you walk into the hotel. http://www.conservatoriumhotel.com/spa-and-gym/the-spa/ |
Another awesome week at Le Cordon Bleu. I was the assistant to the chef in class this week, made a little "technical error" and gave our classmates the wrong pie ring size...whoops. We were all wondering why our batter did not spread evenly......it was too late at that point to correct the situation (those of you who know me well will laugh) The chef and my classmates were really kind about the whole thing.

| Beautiful Meringue and raspberry sorbet cake. |

| Made marzipan roses in class, going to make these for Rosie's baby shower when I am back in Texas. |
 |
| French Mocha Cake. |
We lucked out and purchased the last two tickets to the last ballet of the season at the Opera national de Paris.
