Recently it was my birthday, and we rarely celebrate birthdays in my family. In fact, up until the actual day, my mom was telling her friends the wrong date and age. Thus, when my mom told me she got me a birthday cake to celebrate my birthday, I was quite shocked. She tells me she drove all the way to Chinatown to custom order the cake. Here is the cake in all its wonder:

My boyfriend and I came home from college for Chinese New Year to see this waiting for us in the driveway.  My mom says she made it, which most likely means she made my dad build it for her while she stood watching from the window.

My mom was packing some of my old things into boxes. We got the boxes from the grocery store. This one originally contained some kind of “bagged” food. It now contains fragile items, I think.

My mom loves her Facebook applications so much she checks them everyday.  One day after school my mom wasn’t home yet, but I found this note on my dresser.

The note reads: “Alanna, if I’m not home at 5′ O Clock p.m. please check my Cafe World and click my cook food okay. I love you. Thanks_!”
