fondant fall leaves

I had big plans for cupcakes this weekend, and these little leaves were going to adorn the tops. Well, they eventually will…as of now, these little leaves are still out on my counter as I still try to find/create the perfect cupcake recipe for them.

I’m thinking maple spice.

 

I made these by [...]

rose cake

I made this cake for my daughter’s 5th birthday… wait. I realize I have some explaining to do. What happened to summer? Where have I been?

Well… for starters, swim lessons started which kept us busy 1 1/2 hours every day… then there was vacation, and well… life.

Anyway, I’m back now and I have [...]

kids room clutter conquer

DSC_7552

I have to admit this and forgive me if I sound like a horrible mama; but sometimes I choose toys by how many (or few) tiny parts they have. Not because of choking hazards thankfully we are past that stage. Although I still have to say “Don’t lick that” a few too many times.

Sometimes, [...]

what’s in the lunchbox

Crustless PB & J…cheese stick, grapes and cherry tomatoes…

and a little note with hearts and happy faces on it…since she can’t read yet.

Hearts and happy faces still get the point across, anyway.

I live in south Florida.

YIPPEE!

spiderweb pizzas… and (gasp!) a video

Well, if you know me on twitter and facebook, you know I got a bit ballsy yesterday and decided to make a video.  Not sure why… I think I wanted to see if I could do it. It was something I was scared to death of when I was in Project Food Blog-I decided to [...]

monster mouths

Quite possibly, this could be my shortest post. Nah, I think I will ramble a bit.

It’s the week before Halloween, that means I am going to be “spookifing” food.

Take the after-school snack of apples and peanut butter:

spooky, eh?

It’s sliced apples bound together with peanut butter and slivered almond “teeth”.

Oh yeah, [...]

wormy apples

This is just so cute. And I totally stole it from somewhere- I can’t remember where… (online…I think, although I do have a stack of fall magazines….)

It’s not like me to not give credit-so I will try and hunt down the creator of these cuties.

And, except for the worm they are healthy.

Yippee,  [...]

homemade American cheese

When I told my hubby I was going to make this-um, let’s just say he disapproved. Not that we don’t use/eat American cheese- we do on occasion for grilled cheeses, and cheeseburgers, mainly…but it’s not one of those things we would eat unmelted. He disapproved because he had no clue how I was going to [...]
