Busy Sunday, Cupcakes, Cupcakes....

I am tired right now, today I decided not to get drawn into watching TV all day so I got ready early and went out on the town. I purchased the ingredients to do a few crafts, make a nice dinner and bake some cupcakes. Have a look!

Saturday at my internship I had a good day, nothing too eventful. I talked to Connie a lot and I mostly observed her great skills. She had me frost the borders of a cake, here it is. It looks a bit nicer than when I was having a bad day.

After my internship we went to our friend Kellie's baby shower. Brian and I are going to be the baby's god-parents, it is such an honor to be involved. I made pulled pork (Brian had to finish making it) and we also made a baby clothes bouquet. It is made of onesies, baby t shirts, socks, and hats. It came out looking so cute!!!

Today I made a dinner of rolled tacos, rice, beans and salsa. I wanted to practice my baking and frosting so I turned Ina Garten's Carrot and pineapple cake into cupcakes. I then topped them with cream cheese frosting, little cream cheese carrots and a drizzle of homemade caramel. They were so good! I am sending a tray of them to work with Brian.

Then after dinner and dessert I wanted to get a little crafty. Nicole and I made some cupcake cards...

Here are the two that I made...
