Majestic Purple

You can NEVER go wrong with purple - It's just so full and easy on the eye. It's definitely my favorite color. I don't really wear it to often, or even own many purple clothes for that matter. And never have I baked or cooked anything purple...besides berry-something-or-another. 

This icing looks heavenly!!...And I will be trying this soon!

Cupcake Vinyard

What?! Cupcakes and wine together?


I've always seen Cupcake wine at HEB and Specs, but I finally have joined their newsletter and have started reading more into the wines. So far this is the first one I will try - Sounds delicious!

Mosel Riesling

Of course I will try to eventually try them all - But for now, if you have tried it or heard about it please share!!

Happy Frappe Day!

WhooHooo I can go get Starbucks without feeling too guilty since it's a holiday - As in spending the money or taking in the calories lol


Today is National Frappe Month and I think I will treat myself to Starbuck's Mocha Frap Light!

The origin behind "Frappe" is - New England term for milkshake, from the French frapper, “to beat.” (http://www.thenibble.com/REVIEWS/MAIN/desserts/ice-cream-definitions.asp#frappe)

Interesting how it's turned into an icy, coffee drinks over the years. Here's a basic recipe for making your own:

Happy Noodle Day!

When I think of noodles I think Ramen Noodle...so I'm changing that thought into how much I love food photography.

Here are a couple of neat photos I found with noodles/pasta, in honor of the carb-loaded, funny shaped food's holiday:
