Cupcakes

I made cupcakes for my friend Liz's birthday and had a couple left over. I couldn't help but put them on display. Any chance to use my cupcake stands.

Good chance to use my cupcake carriers too. Cupcakes to-go. Have cupcake, will travel.

St. Patrick's Recap

Thanks to Pinterest I made this for St. Patrick's Day. I called it Shamrock Pudding. Note my trifle dish was much larger than the one shown on Pinterest so I only got a fraction of the height. Almost a pintastrophe. Almost.

We went to our friends' annual St. Patrick's Day party and they had the usual fabulous spread with corned beef leading the way.

Back home I finished a felt shamrock garland...

... just in time to hang for the last few hours of St. Patrick's Day.

Then to top the day off... no St. Patrick's Day is complete with out a Wegmans froggy cupcake.

Cupcake Birthday Pennants

Today was my friend and co-worker, Mary Irene's birthday. I baked cupcakes to celebrate and to make it extra special I designed cupcake birthday pennants for on top.

Mary Irene is the community manager for the Tips & Projects Community so I knew she would not only love the cupcakes but the printables uploaded for all to use.

If you need some cupcake birthday pennants to spruce up your celebration - you can download the pdf here.

(Happy Birthday to my Grandma too!)

Froggy cupcakes

Frog cupcakes are back at Wegmans! It's a St. Patricks tradition.
