What's up now Martha Stewart?


Four dozen cupcakes for the kiddo's 4th birthday party.
It took me about 4 hours to get the marzipan just right and another 4 hours to bake, ice and decorate.
It took the kids exactly 1 1/2 minutes to inhale them and ask for more.
Thanks to Once Upon a Cupcake in Orange County, CA for the ideas.
I probably would have bought them directly but I don't think they would have made it safely to Texas.

4. You have no clue what it will be... it may be a story. It may be poetry or an article on properly cleaning your face before a masque. I may draw or paint something. I may bake something and mail it to you. who knows? not you, that's for sure.
5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.

Just ask him about it his valentine in Iraq. He might deny it but I have all the gossip. :-)
