Thanks for sharing this Anne Marie! This girl is whack but I love the randomness of her comments. "I am her mother" "No she is not." Excellent find Mrs. Cotter!

Too Funny Not to Share

Bret sent me this. Happy Friday!

Tea for 2

Anyone who spends enough time around me knows I love girly things, tiny sandwiches, tiny sweet things and tea. There is a place in Atlanta that has always been a fave of mine for just such things- the Swan Coach House. So, ever since I heard of the Mitzy London tea room here in Kansas City, I have been DYING to go there. A few weekends ago, my good friend Amanda and I went for a little afternoon tea. It was amazing!
Pictured here is my plate of deliciousness. The icing on my tea cake had edible glitter on top. EDIBLE GLITTER! I am on a hunt for some of my own. The picture on the right is my "tea blossom" blossoming. A tea blossom is "a natural herb flowers that are ready to blossom when immersed in hot water." The tea was divine and tasted of vanilla.
I wish we'd had more time to shop because the Mitzy London shop is amazingly cool. Next time, next time. It was a great time and I am so glad Amanda was up for some tea time with me:)

Busy Week

I was in Texas this past weekend. Donavan and I went down to South Padre Island for a day or so. Aside from getting denied a well deserved Pina Colada for forgetting my ID, it was a splendid time. The beach was lined with jelly fish carcases which made for an interesting walk. I wish I'd brought some bread and pb. I will post pics later this week. As for today, IT'S JOSHY'S BIRTHDAY! and tomorrow is ADAM'S BIRTHDAY! For their celebratory lunch, I made chocolate cupcakes with Magnolia Bakery vanilla buttercream frosting. Mmmmm. Happy Tuesday!
P.S. That is not Furter under the covers. It could be him, though, as he is snoozing in my bed at this very moment.

Just Because

FO SHO to cure a case of the Mondays.
This one goes out to Windsor, the only person I know that can see "Sound of Music" 500 times and STILL love it. She also knows all the songs by heart. It's one of her many talents:)

Rainbow cupcakes are sweeping the nation!

Rainbow cupcakes are soooooooo hot right now. They are popping up everywhere! Why not, though, look how beautifully delicious they are! Guess which ones I'll be making next Easter...

HAPPY EASTER!

Rachel N. sent me these adorable bunnies with puppies photos. It makes me wish I had a bunny that resembled Furter. Have a great Sunday!

Tiny Bites Cupcakes+Art=Good Times

I made cupcakes for Bret, Aaron, and Cindy's gallery show at the Hobbs Building last night. I was originally going to make tiny cookies AND tiny cupcakes and at the last minute, they were combined to create a 2-desserts-in-1 masterpiece, if I do say so myself. I will be making more for the continuation of their show today so I'd better get crackin'.

For Peeps Fans

A friend of mine (thanks Nina) sent me a link so some pretty creative uses of Peeps from the 2nd Annual Sunday Source Peeps Diorama Contest sponsored by the Washington Post. My ultimate favorite, though, is above- the Filipino Prison Thriller video remake Peeps style. I also like black and white still from "The Birds" Peeps style and the Sesame Street crew Peeps style. Check out the rest of the amazingness here. Happy Easter!

World's Tiniest Pig at Play

If you have been keeping up with your Sugar Pants, you already know how much I love baby pigs. My sister sent me a link to this video and I would be an evil person not to share this delightful peek into the life and times of Kingsford, World's Tiniest Piglet. Enjoy!
