waving goodbye to 25.
21 September 2008
enlight of turning 26 tomorrow i started to ponder things.
have i ever mentioned that i'm a thinker???
so i started thinking...what all has happened between 15-25???
this blog comes with a warning:
i might get seriously choked up here, i already feel the lump in my throat and everything.
:O)
the summer of 97'
this was physically the last time i laid eyes on my {half} brother & sister.
sad i know.
{long story short...nasty divorce between my daddy & stepmother.}
but nonetheless, here i am.
98' & 99'
basic teenage stuff.
thought i found the love of my life, only to find out the hard way that he SO was NOT.
tehehe.
spring 2000:
i met and fell in love with shane!!!
{here comes the crying part.}
i met him one saturday afternoon at a mutual friend's house.
he was in the service {usmc} and just happened to be there on leave.
long story short...shane became more than my best friend.
he became my everything.
i ♥ shane with all that i am, because he made me who i am.

what y'all will need:
1 cup canned pumpkin

4 egg whites, divided
1/2 cup milk {optional...depends on if you want a thicker bread or not.}

2 cups flour, sifted
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1 pkg {8oz.} cream cheese; softened
preheat oven to 350'
grease and sugar 9x5-inch loaf pan, set aside.
mix pumpkin, 1 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, 3 of the egg whites, milk {opt.} and oil in large bowl.
add flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt; stir just until moistened. set aside.
in a separate bowl beat cream cheese, remaining 2 tbsp granulated sugar and the remaining egg white until blended.
spoon 1/2 of the pumpkin batter into prepared pan; spoon cream cheese mixture over the batter.
cover with remaining pumpkin batter.
bake for 1 hour.
{or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.}
run knife around around edges of pan to loosen bread; cool in pan completely.
slice and serve.
this is addicting.
you have been warned.
hope y'all enjoy.
xo, rachel
