A foto ficou boa ne?? Eu tirei esses dias quando esse bicho feio tentou pousar em mim!! Que abuso!! ------------------------------------------ The picture looks good, uh? I took it the other day when this ugly insect tried to land on me!
Eu, Maxie e a Trish no The park. Por algum motivo desconhecido saimos todas muito estranhas na foto... --------------------------------------------------------- Me, Maxie and Trish at the Park. For some strange reason we all look weird in this picture.
Kuba e eu no "The park" uma boate aqui em Sacramento.
Alguem quer Caipirinha? No sabado o Kuba fez uma caipirinha (na verdade eu fiz, mas ele achou muito fraca) com a cachaca de Paraty. -------------------------- Kuba made caipirinha with cachaca (Brazilian version of "vodka" made with sugar cane) "ka-sza-sa". My dad gave him the bottle when we were in Paraty. Kuba thought that the caipirinha I made was too weak! Those Polacs....
Alberta e LeRoy quando chegaram de viagem. Como eh que o bolo de coracao apareceu na foto de novo? Repeti a dose! hehe Ficou tao bom e justamente naquele dia eles estavam celebrando o aniversario de casamento. heheh---------------------------------------------------------------- LeRoy and Alberta, the day they came back from Wisconsin. How did the "heart cake" show up again? We got a repeat. The cake was soo good that I made it again. On that day they were celebrating their wedding anniversary. It was perfect!

Bolo de Chocolate!

Bolo de chocolate:
1 xicara de leite
1 xicara de oleo
2 ovos
1 xicara de nescau/toddy
1 xicara de acucar
2 xicaras de farinha de trigo
1 colher de sopa de fermento
Bata os ovos, oleo e o leite no liquidificador. Enquanto isso misture a farinha, o acucar e o nescau numa cumbuca. Coloque o leite batido na cumbuca, mixture tudo bem. Coloque a colher de fermeto e continue mexendo. Quando voce estiver cansada, coloque a mixtura numa forma untada com manteiga e farinha e coloque no forno pre-aquecido por 25-30 minutos. CALDA de CHOCOLATE? coloque 3 colheres de sopa de manteiga, 2 de nescau, 3 de leite e 2 de acucar e leve ao fogo ate engrossar um pouco. MTO BOM! Pratico, facil de fazer e barato! :) deixa o namorado feliz...

Chocolate cake:
1 cup of milk
2 eggs
1 cup of oil
1 cup of "powder chocolate" (Hershey's?)
1 cup of sugar
2 cups of flour
1 spoon of baking powder
Blend the milk, oil with eggs. At the same time, place sugar, flour and chocolate powder on a bowl and mix it well. Add the milk, oil/eggs mixture to the bowl. Add the baking powder and mix it well. Once you get tired of mixing, place the mixture in a cake pan (with butter and flour so that it does not stick). Place it on a pre-heated oven (350F , not sure in Celcius) for 25-30 minutes. CHOCOLATE "FROSTING"? 3 spoons of butter, 2 spoons of chocolate powder, 2 spoons of sugar and 3 spoons of milk. Heat it until it becomes a little thicker and dump it on the cake after it is done. It is SOOOOO GOOD!!! Easy, Quick, cheap! And it makes your boyfriend happy.

Ninguem eh perfeito ne? A Maude eh linda.. heheh mas morre de "inveja" da minha cor de pele. E eu morro de inveja da altura dela! ----------------------------------------- Since no one is perfect, Maude wishes she was tan like me. I wish I was tall like her!

Eh nesse lugar que eu fico rica todos os dias! hahaha Boa piada! Mas como visto de estudante so da direito a trabalhar na faculdade, nao ha emprego melhor que esse. Detalhe: a gorjeta eh sempre boa quando se usa maquiagem... Eu e a Melissa sabemos disso... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the place that makes me richer almost everyday!! hahah Good joke!! Since students on visa cannot work off-campus, this is the best job I can get. By the way: customers tip more when I wear make-up! Melissa and I have all figured out!!
Estou de ferias da faculdade, mas todos os dias eu passo na frente dessa "placa"... Na verdade eu tenho ido pra faculdade pra trabalhar no restaurante ou no laboratorio todos os dias! Nem tive ferias de verdade.... -------------------------------------------------------------------- It is summer and school is out, however every single day I walk in front of this sign. I have been going to school to work or to work in the lab everyday. I really did not have "vaccation" this summer... none at all
