i wish i could have invited more people, but we don’t have the biggest house (or the biggest budget), and i was really nervous about what would happen if the weather turned ugly. fortunately, it was beautiful, and it was still a tight squeeze for all who made it. (a good excuse for people not […]

butterfly cupcakes for molly…
my friend allison, who has helped me on cake endeavors in the past, and whose son is terrific pals with my ike, is going to have a baby girl in may. she’s due two days after anna’s birthday (who was born three days, late, if you recall, and had to be dragged out kicking and […]
robot cake pops
for the birthday celebration of a good pal, i decided to make some cake pops. as always, my trusty cake pop associate, bridgette helped out. and we knocked these guys out pretty quickly. as it usually goes, no one really ate them at the party, so lots of moms got to take some home to […]
warm days

rainbow cake
somehow, over the past couple of weeks, i have amassed a great deal of leftover frosting. in an unrelated story, i had promised my friend bridgette that i would show her how i get smooth (ish) frosting on my cakes the next time i made a cake. since there are really no cakes on the […]
addison’s doll
anna’s friend addison turned one last week and we were invited to her giant birthday extravaganza on saturday. i used my babysitter time with claire to go to joann fabrics and search high and low for the proper fabrics for miss addison. she’s a black and white and hot pink kind of girl, so i […]
