Pink + Blue

August 28th, 2010

I had a friend ask me if I would make Cupcakes and Mints for a baby shower for two families. I said sure, and I had a lot of fun putting the treats together.

Cookie Baking Day

July 24th, 2010

I have a busy Saturday ahead of me. I needed to run to the store last night, but ran out of energy to get there, my early morning mowing adventure zapped it out of me. James is off today and will watch the kiddos so I can shop in peace, so that is pretty cool. Anyway I have to get the weekly groceries, and cookie baking supplies too.

Today I’m baking 20 dozen cookies for our Church’s VBS. This year I’ve decided to stick to just one cookie to bake, and I’ll be baking Cakerdoodles. They are easy and fast, so maybe I won’t be in the kitchen all day. Time to grab some coffee, finalize my shopping list, and get to it. Have a great weekend everybody.

Keeping Busy In The Kitchen

I finally made up my mind on what to make for the MOPS Spa Night, and I’ve been busy in the kitchen all morning. The Little Miss and Dylan were there to help me out too. So far I’ve got the Raspberry Balls chilling  in the fridge, and waiting for a drizzle of White Chocolate. I’m half-way through baking Mini-Red Velvet cupcakes that I will frost tomorrow. I’ve got lunch to make too, so I had better get back to it.

What To Make…

January 16th, 2010

I need some help making up my mind. Next week is our MOPS Spa Night, and the Steering Team is in charge of the goodies. I have no idea what to bring, but I have 3 recipes that I have wanted to try out for awhile. One recipe is for Oatmeal Raspberry Bars, another is for Peanut Butter Bon Bons, and one last one is for Raspberry balls. I could always make my Nana’s Coconut-Orange candies, they are good too. So many to choose from, I might just make all four.
