I Think I'll Put My Winter Boots Away

We needed to celebrate!
Jump for joy!

Clap our hands!
And stomp our feet!

It was Monday and we didn't have
SNOW!

Sanford said, "Nana, we need to make
cupcakes!
And he was right.

Chris of Cafe Surce' Farine
posted a wonderful recipe for 
These seemed perfect for our
"winter must be over...please"
celebration.

The cupcakes tasted like a scrumptious
 vanilla pound cake, but
were still light and were able to hold up
all that wonderful frosting.

The frosting is, well...
perfect, tart and sweet.


Along with some cream cheese
this recipe also included
pink lemonade concentrate.
It made the perfect pink color and
 just the right flavor combination.

My little helper and I
decided we would also do a
photo shoot outside just to
prove there wasn't any snow.


Watch out, cupcakes on the ground!


Someone needed a closer look.


Just a taste.


These were perfection on a plate.
What better way to celebrate.

Until Next Time-

  4. You make such pretty cup cakes. And try different recipes. Since I am no longer working, baking cupcakes would be dangerous. Only two people to eat them. When I worked, I took cakes to work to share.

  5. Mmmm...... While I enjoy seeing you're cupcakes, I'm just happy that I never have to make a cake of any kind for any reason any more. A few years ago my two daughters took a cake decorating class together and really enjoyed it. Now, whenever we have a birthday - THEY are the ones to provide the cakes - yay!
