Happy Halloween.

Today could not have been sweeter...

Spent the morning making cupcakes with my sweeties.

Spent the evening with my entire family.

Dinner, mulled cider, trick-or-treating & cupcakes.

It was nice.

Happy Halloween!!!

Fresh Picked Raspberries

My sweet sister picked raspberries this past week and gave a bunch to us to enjoy.

We have put them to good use. They happily added a pop of color to the red velvet cake on the 4th.

The twins LOVE eating them straight from the bowl.

They were the perfect topping for my scratch-made all organic yellow cake topped with homemade whipped cream for Omi's birthday today.

Thank you, sister! We've polished them all off and enjoyed every last berry!

Wordless Wednesday

Yum!

So I decided that $75 was waaayy to much to spend on a cake for a toddler birthday party (even when it is a party for two toddlers)! I found a silicone mega cupcake mold at Marshall's for $5.99 and decided I could totally make the cakes (cupcakes) for the twins upcoming birthday party. I have been practicing for the big day and the above cupcake is a trial run. Husband has been very pleased with all the practice baking going.
Sorry for the lack of creative posts. Every crafty bit I've done lately has been with a Dora or Diego theme for the party and I didn't think you all would be interested in all that. I will do a big post party post with all kinds of pics of what I have been working so hard on over here these past few weeks!
Have a sweet weekend!
