I'm a 17 year old college student attending Colorado Mountain College, in Glenwood Springs (shooting for an art degree). I love baking when I come home to Eagle on the weekends, especially cookies, cupcakes and muffins.
I'm some what of a health freak though, so I like to keep things low-phat, some time, hehe.
