POP!

Bakerella is this genious site for all things baked.

These are my first attempts at her adorable cake pops.

Stay tuned- I have more in my sight for the near future.

9 years...

Today, Cade turns nine. It's becoming more apparent to me, every day, that Cade is such a complex little soul. Don't try to label him. He is bold, yet painfully cautious (thanks Mom). He is a brainiac that plays sports, year-round. He gets so frustrated with people and things that he gives himself terrible headaches, yet, he begs to be surrounded by friends and loves to be challenged. I love him dearly and can't wait to absorb all that he has yet to teach me. Happy birthday, Cade-Man.

Cupcakes, cupcakes and more cupcakes!

I have said it before, I am always looking for an excuse to make cupcakes or cakes, so today was dedicated to decorating 65 cupcakes for the Cub Scouts Blue and Gold banquet. The theme of the dinner was 'Amercan BBQ', so I made sunflowers, corn on the cob and ants to top the checkered table cloths.

Did I mention that I'm exhausted right now?

In Honor of Paca

Saturday, my grandfather turned 90 years old. Yes, 90! And what a specimen he still is. Swimming, hiking, you name it. He is what I dream that I would be at that age. And most importantly, he has always been the best grandpa, or as we call him, Paca.

Uncle John and Drea cooking authentic Mexican cuisine! So yummy...

Looking young, Pac.
