Recently we bought a waffle maker and the whole family is pretty excited. I know crazy us right?

Lemon Pudding Cupcakes
You know what I love about blogging? Well besides like everything of course. I love that it constantly pushes me to stretch my abilities, creativity, flavor palate...you get the point.
