Four years since the double the diapers, double the bows, double the pink, and double the cuteness began. Which means, no more toddlers for us, we've officially moved on to all "big girls" and only one thing comes to mind. Hallelujah, oh happy day, we survived! And that ... [ read more... ]

High Hat Birthday Cake Cupcakes

Much to my surprise it was way easier then it seemed, and the cupcakes were such a hit! I was pretty much hooked on ... [ read more... ]

Snickers Cupcakes
I have this little thing for turning well loved treats into cupcakes, it's something about the challenge of taking certain ingredients and recreating them in cupcake form that makes me happy! Last year I discovered you can recreate the Snickers filling with two simple ingredients, and I just had to turn it into a cupcake. The first batch was gone before they even saw a camera...and what better ... [ read more... ]
