something in the water?

Just about every other woman I know is expecting a little one very soon! One of my best friends, Amber, has an "almost relative" (a longer story to tell at a later time) who had a baby shower this past weekend. Well the grandma-to-be, Kathy, called and asked if I would make the cupcakes for the shower!

I obviously jumped on the opportunity and had a blast! I don't have pictures from the shower, but I do have a few keepsakes of the little cakes...

There were 30 in total - 10 with yellow icing (paler than the pictures show), 10 with green, and 10 with baby blue. 15 of the cupcakes were straight chocolate, request from the mom-to-be, and the other half were my personal favorite, Chocolate with cream cheese filling ~ Yum!

With a ton of help from my Mom tying on all the decorative ribbons, I made a mess in the kitchen but LOVED baking for someone else's enjoyment!

Cupcake Quiz because I can't sleep

Feb 10 = Cream Cheese Brownie Day!

Quite possibly one of the best food holidays created.

Since it's not even the 10th yet, only 10 more minutes, I haven't made any brownies myself...so for now I found the most delicious looking ones I could find online.

Even if you don't like cream cheese, how do these not look amazing!? I probably won't have time to make my own tomorrow, so I'll just pretend for now :o)

Happy Cream Cheese Brownie Day!

Super Bowl

We had a full house for the Super Bowl! I made red velvet with cream cheese icing for the Colts...

And chocolate with peanut butter buttercream, and chocolate buttercream...my favorite!!
