the start of fall baking

I got up this morning with the intention to bake something, so I went poking around the web for recipes. I landed on one of my favorite baking blogs and decided to make whoopie ... whoopie pies, that is! I followed the recipe I found on Howtoeatacupcake.net (that link should take you right to the post with the recipe in it) and came up with something that I will definitely make again!

The recipe makes quite a few, so if you want one, just let me know and you can come get one! I like to share, lol.

Just a few things I baked this past week (finishing up today with a cupcake order):

Cookies 'n Cream cupcakes

Chocolate covered peanut butter cheesecake pops (I took 50 of these to work on Friday - I didn't bring any of them home - it's a good thing I left these three at home for us!)

Orange dreamsicle cupcakes (I didn't get a picture of the ones I sent to work with the husband on Friday - these are pictured the last time I made them)

and last, but certainly not least, Banana Split cupcakes (banana cake, vanilla buttercream frosting, chocolate drizzle, sprinkles and a cherry on top). These may possibly the cutest cupcakes I've made yet!

Even my dog can find love online

I was browsing my usual websites earlier and stepped away for a minute to refill my drink, and had left the site Cute Overload.com open. I walked back into my office and found the following:

Usually I find Mr. Milo asleep in the chair behind me all curled up being a furry little blanket thief, but this time I found him up on my desk chair, looking very intently at the screen and the cute little female JRT up on the web page. I don't have the heart to remind him that he's neutered, LOL.

All done (with wedding photos)

I finished 'em up tonight ... you can find the whole set HERE if you want to check them out. I'm not too keen on the outdoor ones (the light was WAY harsh 1pm light), but I'm happy with them overall.

Wedding pictures - Kenny and Michelle

Just a few shots from today - I'm absolutely exhausted since I've been on the go since 6am (it's almost 9pm now).





I have no idea why she was so shocked in this next one - it was just good timing on my part, lol.
