M-I-C, K-E-Y, M-O-U-S-E.... Mickey Mouse!!!

Celebrating Sebi's 3rd Birthday in Disney World!!
This was my first character cake, and knowing that I am still a cake rookie, my brother-in-law called me the day I was working on the cake to ask how Splinter (from TMNT) was coming along?? The true test was if honest three year old Sebi knew who the cake was!! And of course, right away he said MICKEY!!! I thought the cake was great and was devastated to see them go at Mickey with a knife and eat him up!!

Happy Mother's Day

I love my mommy!!! Recently getting married and moving out of my mom's house was a little rough in the beginning. I had to learn to clean the bathroom, do the laundry and cook (still working on that though) from one day to the next! I have a new appreciation for mommies and all of the things they do!
Here are the flowers my lucky mom got on Mother's Day... sugar cookies on a stick! I ordered the coffee mug on Snapfish. In the picture is my mom, my sisters and me. Aren't we cute??

Margarita Cupcakes

Happy Cinco de Mayo!!!
Well actually, I made these cupcakes for a Cinco de Mayo themed birthday party on Nueve de Mayo! (Happy birthday Alex!!) When you think of Cinco de Mayo, Margaritas come to mind, so of course, Margarita Cupcakes were for dessert!! Yes, I really made Margaritas and added it to the batter ... of course, enjoying some of the Margaritas myself as I baked and decorated the cakes. It was tons of fun to make, and eat!!
