Four years ago, I wanted to move to England (hey, it’s not as weird as it sounds—I was born there, so I’d have instant citizenship). But today I could not be more proud to call myself an American.
It would’ve been so much fun to have an Inauguration party—complete with little fondant donkey cupcakes!—but school (and the fact that most of my SMU friends are Republicans and didn’t want to watch) dashed those plans. Oh well!
I’ll be back later tonight, with a recipe post
). Happy Tuesday!

Aww, I said the same thing. Never before have I been as proud to be an American.
Can’t wait for the recipe =)

Haha, 4 years ago I swore I’d head to Canada if we elected Bush again.. I never went!
But today I happy to say I no longer want to leave this glorious country!! Yayyy!
TOTALLY girl. I’ve never been so proud of this country!
I didnt realize that you went to SMU! one of my best friends went there and just graduated as a Dance Major.
school takes over seomtimes!!!!
YEAHHH for Obama! I thought his speech was excellent!!! So glad you’re an “outliar” AKA democrat… but a smarty for sure!
Happy Inauguration Day! Woohoo!
nope.. her name is megan (she was a rockette with me this season)
i hear its a great school though!!!!
HA girl i went to SC so i feel ya on the republican overload! Hooooray!
I remember some young American girl-scouts bemoaning Bush’s election to me the first time round so I’ve no doubt that they, and all you other intelligent, compassionate guys out their will have kicked in your votes this time round to make this little bit o’ history.
I didn’t even get to watch the inauguration… I’ll watch the videos later.
I am very happy, though. Very very happy.
I had it on ALL DAY. It was really exciting. It seems like one of those things that is just so hugely important. I made a cake for the occasion
. Its hard to believe that GWB was in office for half my life. It is all I can remember. I feel safe now.
I feel ya lady! What a great day!
Aw yes, I live in the OC, one of the few very conservative areas of CA. And I work in law enforcement, which tends to be pretty conservative, so I feel your pain.
Happy inauguration day!
Yep, for the first time in, geeze, forever, I’m proud to have a US passport, too!
