Whatever Wordpress

Wordpress is just too complicated and Blogger is supposed to be a joy... so here I am Blogger. Within the week, I will be posting my creations one post at a time. In previous posts, I have not identified the recipes I have used. Typically I have made the recipes up in my head or took short cuts with box cake mixes. The purpose of next 40 post is to just "sit pretty". Yes they will lack recipes, however in current recipes more and more recipes will be present, scouts honor!

Christmas in a bite.

I have intentions to strictly post cute recipes... if you know what I mean! However this recipe is not very attractive, though it certainly is a MUST HAVE to your Christmas celebration. I would NOT be able to sleep at night not knowing that I did not share this with my fellow readers! Do the math!

egg nog + gingerbread + nut meg = Christmas
Santa’s Eggnog Cups= Christmas

For realz... I scouts honor that for sure! Santa's Eggnog Cups are absolutely amazing! It is quite simple and it honestly does scream Christmas! I loved it so much that I have decided to make this recipe my very own yearly tradition. This is a must have recipe for the holiday season. No serving plates/napkins/forks necessary! Finger food rocks!

Making Gingerbread men cookies with my man!


Holly molly rolly polly, I got Andy to get busy in the kitchen with me! I always forget how much easier bakery-life is when there is an extra pair of hands on board! By the way, the cute little apron I am wearing was hand-made by Andy’s great grandmother! I am so honored to have this!












I had a last minute cake... 4 layers tall! I surrounded the cake with the cookies that Andy and I deecorated together. Happy bday Jesus!

The tablecloth made my cupcakes!


Christmas 2008! Every year, my mom & dad have a yearly office party! This year, they requested that I make red velvet cupcakes! Unfortunately they asked me last minute and I had a million things on my plate. I ran short on time so I threw some sprinkles on top and called it a day! Luckily, they had a bright red table cloth which made these ordinarily cupcakes a success!
Lesson of the day: Tableclothes can dress up cupcakes or any desserts! Sweeeeeet!

Christmas Cookies on a stick!


The holidays have arrived so quickly this year! My fiance's, Andy, mom is an elementary school teacher. Each year, she gives her parent helpers a very special treat for Christmas. This year she asked me to make cookie bouquets for the parents! I had a blast making these!

Just do it!


So, my big bro is a huuuuuuuge sneaker fan and loves Mr. Jordan! The colors on this cake were inspired by the Marje Simpson Dunks that were released in 2008. Anyhow, my first attempt @ a buttercream transfer really sucked. Cake decorating is surely a learning experience! All in all, I got lots of props and smiles! Sweeeeeeeeeeeet!
