Cupcakes, bdays, Valentines- Oh My!



"Beatles" themed cupcakes

I forgot to post a few things from the past month or so, so I'm trying to catch up.   See the pic of the Beatles themed baby shower cupcakes I made? I made strawberry & chocolate cupcakes, but most of us were doing the Daniel Fast with the church (no sugar, meat, dairy!), so we just stood along side of them and drooled but did not touch.  That was a thrillllllll! -_-  I heard really good reviews from other people though, which was lovely.  A friend around the corner is preggs with twins, and she sampled a strawberry cupcake and told me that's what she wants me to serve at her baby shower that I'm working on.  Sweetness.
My 28th birthday came & fell on the Superbowl.  I had major competition for my husband's attention considering how much he loves football.  We went out to dinner the night before to Macaroni Grill, which is one of my most loved "chain" places to eat, but the service was awful!  Normally, I'd get kind of annoyed, but it was actually pretty amusing.  Our poor waiter was a really clumsy, goofy, but sweet guy who resembled Clark Kent.  He spilled over the olive oil all over our table when he was pouring it, and forgot to bring us our caesar salads & refills.  But as I listened to everyone around us complain to the manager about their food, etc, I was more entertained than upset.  Does that make me sound like a terrible person?  When I got the shrimp dish I ordered, it was mad bland & I was continuously adding salt to try to flavor it.  Clark Kent was a nice waiter though, and brought me a bowl of sauce to help me out. There was also 1 sausage nub in my food....... or maybe it was a finger? I don't know; I ate it anyway.   I made cupcakes for my birthday to share & loaded them with sprinkles.  I want to pretend I'm still 5.



Sprinkles make everyone smile :-)

 
For Valentine's Day I made a cute lil' assortment of cupcakes to surprise my dearest love & I got him the cutest card from TinyPrints.com.  I personalized it.... the outside said "Danny, I love you more than I love cupcakes.." 

 "..and everyone knows how much I love cupcakes!"   {Very fitting for The Sugar Mama. :) }

I also made some cupcakes for the lovely folks in his office to share, and I made cake pops for Jadon & Micah's teachers.  Cake pops are seriously precious.  I'm kind of obsessed!
