Cupcake Extravaganza and more...

So April and May had a lot of birthdays in my work world. I have found myself baking a lot these past few weeks, with hubby of course being my sous chef sorta. He calls himself that. Last week I made a Lemon Raspberry cake from scratch and oh my goodness, it was so good. I never had tried anything like that before and well, I have pics but they are on my Facebook. I guess I will add them later cause I am too tired to hook up my iPhone to get them off of there. Then I made a homemade Coconut Rum cake with real yummy RUM... and tonight it's my famous White Chocolate cake in cupcake form...Don't worry, there will be no CCC. No tonight will be white chocolate butter cream icing in a swirly and spiky fashion. I might even add a dash of sprinkles. A DASH not a whole covering. Some people go overboard, see Cake Wrecks. One of my most fave blogs to visit daily.

Anyway, while I love to bake and love to see people eat it and enjoy it and tell me I should open a bakery.. HA HA HA... I am TIRED!!!! You see what time it is, right? Yea. LATE. AGAIN. It does make my heart happy though...

Tomorrow, err, today is HAPPY HOUR... And I am SO going to that. Gotta get my drink on and celebrate a slight vacation from baking cakes.. OH wait. I have a son who has a birthday on Saturday... CRAP! OH yea, birthday celebration will be on the FOLLOWING weekend instead of actual birthday. WHEW cause mama needs a break! He keeps giving me requests for certain kinds of cakes. I think I ruined it when I made him that kick-ass pirate ship cake. THAT WAS FUN. I had never done anything so elaborate before. Anyway, he has a passion for cooking, that boy watches Food Network more than I do. :) I will never forget the first time I came home from work and he was watching Paula Dean stuffing a chicken with a can of beer. He likes to get cook books at the bookstore. I encourage it though. He even made his own recipe, with my help, for an Eggplant dish that is well.. delicious!

So now that I have yammered on forever... I guess I have to go frost those cupcakes now...
