Cupcakes


On Saturday was my church's annual picnic. Since I am apart of my women fellowship at my church, the women were responsible for bring desserts. As I type that last statement, it sounds so sexiest. Why are the women bringing desserts and not the men? Maybe because we do not want a bunch of store bought stuff....as I digress. Doing my part from the picnic, I created some cupcakes. I am really obsessed with them right now. Making these cupcakes allowed me to feed my obsession, but it also gave me practice on some of my decorating techniques and I do need practice.

When making these cupcakes I got use one of the tips that we did not use in class, but it was tip that my mom found on sale. It was a leaf tip. It was the first time that I used this tip and I think that I did pretty good using it. I used my swirl technique and made the star flowers on top of the cupcake.


I felt so polished when I started putting them into the cake box to take to church. I had some extra cupcakes and tasted 1 ...o.k. it was 2 and they were pretty yummy to me. Hope everyone else enjoys them.

Fill in the Blank Friday--Sleep

1.   The last thing I do before going to sleep is         turn on the TV and set the sleep timer . 2.   When I can't sleep I      watch TV until I fall back to sleep   . 3.   The first thing I do when I wake up is     go to the bathroom . 4.   When I'm tired I      can fall asleep anywhere.

It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

Wedded Wednesday: Thanksgiving Traditions

With the holidays coming,  I am thinking about how I want to spend them with the hubby. We do the same thing every year for Thanksgiving and make a road trip to spend it with his family. I usually go shopping on the day after Thanksgiving starting at 3:00am and usually come home and sleep the rest of the day. I was looking at starting some sort of new traditions on the Saturday after Thanksgiving that we can do for years to come. Maybe like putting up the Christmas tree (this is my vote), taking an annual holiday photo, doing some shopping together or maybe doing something relaxing like getting a couples massage. Of course, we will have to throw in some football and lots of left overs whatever we decide to do.Building new traditions, will be the traditions that will continue in our family  and define the holidays for years to come.  Do you have any Thanksgiving traditions?
