Fuzzy

This is my nephew's pet, more so a friend, Fuzzy. He told me that Fuzzy likes cupcakes, so we gave him a cupcake.



Well, Fuzzy may like cupcakes, but he wasn't hungry. So my nephew ate his cupcake. Mmm

A new flavor

I've been wanting to experiment with raspberries and I think I was pretty successful. I paired pumpkin cupcakes with raspberry& white chocolate cupcakes filled with raspberry jam...... a perfect duo for the holiday season.

New Treasure


Not too long ago my father gave me the best gift- My grandmother's typewriter when she was a journalist in the 1950's-60's. I just love old typewriters>#@^! they're so classy. All I needed to do was replace the ribbon and I was ready to type my first novel. haha, not really, but I do love the gold decal, 'Woodstock' on the paper table( typewriter lingo). I let my mind wander and soon I was baking tie-dye cupcakes( maybe it was the whole 'Woodstock' thing).








~Tie-dye cupcakes: vanilla cake
flavored with vanilla beans and topped with
vanilla frosting- I opted for green~

That's right! Gold was the theme for the art gallery opening I catered. Serena Cole was the featured artist in her first solo exhibition. Her art is captivating,mysterious and just breathtaking( she is brilliant with watercolors!) View her exhibition at the Triple Base Gallery in San Francisco through December 20~
