THE BENEFITS OF BEING A CULINARY STUDENT
CHURCH UNTIL 2 PM

"Back in the Kitchen"
Preparing to Set Up My Studio in Kitchen!!!

My kitchen is finally back in order.

Slowly but surely, I have put my favorite room back together, and I cannot tell you how much I've enjoyed being back in it. There is something therapeutic about cooking, creating, and spending time in a space that brings you peace. I've been cooking some of my favorite dishes and looking forward to practicing even more.

To take things to the next level, I'm ordering a pasta maker, a meat grinder, and a few other kitchen tools so I can continue honing my craft at home. Learning new techniques and creating meals from scratch is something I truly enjoy.

This week, I also started my garden, and I am so excited! I have all of my herbs planted, along with tomatoes, cucumbers, beets, radishes, and strawberries. Living in Las Vegas means dealing with extreme heat, so I have to take advantage of the sunshine while I can. There is something rewarding about growing your own food and watching your hard work come to life.

The next two weeks will be focused on training and development for my business, addressing a few health matters, and continuing to build relationships and contacts that will help support my future goals. This fall, I plan to resume classes, but for now, my focus is on laying a solid foundation.

One of the biggest milestones recently has been securing a remote position. Having a work-from-home opportunity gives me the flexibility to continue building my business while maintaining a steady income. It allows me to focus on building me, and that is exactly what I intend to do.

Of course, life can't be all work and no play.

I think it's time to have a little fun this summer. Not too much but enough. I need to scout out a few of these pool parties and local events. I refuse to let another summer pass me by without making a few memories and enjoying myself.

My NBA season has officially ended. The Oklahoma City Thunder were eliminated, and with the playoffs winding down, I'll be spending less time glued to the television and more time exploring what Las Vegas has to offer. I'll still be rooting for the New York Knicks and seeing how things play out, but I'm ready to get out and enjoy the season.

One thing many people may not know about me is that I absolutely love thrifting. Some people call it shopping I call it treasure hunting. You never know what hidden gems you'll find, and that's half the fun.

June will be a busy month. I'll be networking with various firms and agencies, developing commercial and marketing materials, and preparing for the official launch of my business. While my launch date has been pushed back, I'm actually grateful for the additional time. It allows me to prepare properly, tie up loose ends, and ensure everything is in order before moving forward.

There are still a few administrative tasks on my list, including amending my operating agreement and updating my business address. The good news is that I'm almost ready.

My goal is to have all training completed and certifications in place for Notary Services, Apostille Processing, and Loan Signing Services. I want to be fully prepared before opening the doors and serving clients.

As for my paralegal studies, I've decided to postpone them until I can dedicate uninterrupted time and attention to the coursework. Right now, my focus is on building the business correctly. I'm hoping to return to those studies in Fall 2026 but if you've been following my journey, you already know that life sometimes has its own timeline.

For now, I'm grateful.

The kitchen is back in order. The garden is growing. The business is developing. New opportunities are opening. And for the first time in a while, I feel like everything is beginning to come together.

One step at a time. One project at a time. One goal at a time.

The future looks bright.Feel free to follow along as I continue building, learning, growing, and occasionally taking a break to enjoy a pool party, a thrift store treasure hunt, or a great home-cooked meal.
