Candy Bar Cupcakes {tutorial}

June 6, 2011 in cupcakes - 2 Comments

I’ve apparently been on a candy bar kick.  Either that, or they’ve been haunting me in my dreams and I need to let them go.  I made Twix cookies to get rid of the last of the Twix in the pantry, and now I’ve done the same with Milky Ways.  Eric and…

Fondant Toppers, continued

June 2, 2011 in misc. - No Comments

This is the shortest post ever.  And for that, I am sorry.  I brought the cupcakes in to work yesterday and was planning on taking a few pictures with the fondant toppers, but after the third picture, my camera died.  I was planning on taking a few, and that’s what I…

Teacher Cupcake Fondant Toppers

May 26, 2011 in cupcakes, misc. - 2 Comments

My dear friend Gary is retiring from teaching this year.  I believe he’s taught 30 years.  Wow.  This is my 7th year and sometimes it feels like I’ve been teaching 30 years and sometimes it feels like I’ve been teaching 1.  Such dedication he’s had with his students and in…

Mocha Chocolate Chip Scones

May 22, 2011 in scones - 3 Comments

Scones in the morning make me happy.  I love to sit down and have a cup of coffee, some fruit, and a warm scone.  These scones make me particularly happy because they have a little bit of espresso and an explosion of chocolate.  Scones are a little tricky to make.  Many…

Cookbook Creation

May 18, 2011 in crafts - 5 Comments

I was inspired when I went to my local craft store some time back.  It was the same trip where I made the picture frames.  This project is supposed to be scrapbooked with pictures on each divider, but I thought it would make a great cookbook!  The three dividers would…

Chocolate Chip Twix Cookies

May 12, 2011 in cookies - 3 Comments

My husband and I love Costco.  We were there not too long ago and bought a selection (or package, I should say) of various candy bars–Snickers, Twix, 3 Musketeers, oh my!  I’ve buried them in my closet, so I wouldn’t be tempted to eat them all, but I recently just “rediscovered” them. …

A Tribute to my Mom

May 8, 2011 in misc., musings - 6 Comments

  My mother is one of the bravest women I know.  Not only did she raise three daughters, each 18 months apart, (and survived), on a meager budget because she chose to stay home, but is currently fighting an incurable cancer with her head held high.  I’m not extremely eloquent with words, but…

210 Cake Balls

May 4, 2011 in cakes - 4 Comments

My friend Natalie helps run a children’s ministry program, AWANA, at her church.  Today is the last day of the AWANA year, and she and her husband wanted to recognize all the volunteers who help make the ministry possible.  So, she asked me if I’d help her make some cake balls for…
