Attack of the Cupcakes!

I have wanted to make cupcakes for I don't know how long. So, I decided for this Halloween I would make enought to feed a small army (aka. the starving artists that I work with). I went to the store, bought all of the things required for such a task and headed home to make a mess.

I ended up making more than 100 mini cupcakes. (I only made it to work with about 80 of them because Scott stole a few and also conned me with is whining when I wouldn't give him any.) I am also proud to say I made my own buttercream frosting to top them off with. It was a lot of fun and a tad harder than I had expected it to be.

Now I can't wait for the next reason to make more....Wait....Do you really need a reason to make and eat cupcakes?

I have been so busy this October! It looks like November is going to be crazy too.

At least I'm not bored....Right?

Farewell to Cookies

As some of you may already know.... After 92 years Mother's Cookies has shut down! It's a sad, sad day for those of us who grew up on these things. It's like another little piece of childhood dying. I'll be eating a few bags (for old times sake) before they disappear. Get yours now before they are gone....forever.

Catching up on my blogging

I received a request to update my blog so here it is....3 months worth of updates all at once. Enjoy! :)

The BIG 3-0

Today is Scott's birthday. I surprised him with brunch at Chandler's Crabhouse. David and Camilla came out to celebrate with us. We ate great crab omelettes, mimosas and freshly baked apple fritters. The chef made him a little chocolate mousse too! I also gave him front row tickets for Seven Brides for Seven Brothers which made him verrrry happy.

Happy 30th Scott!
