PICTURES!!!!

Well...at least one of a cupcake ;) This is from a batch of peppermint cupcakes I made this week. Chocolate peppermint cupcakes with chocolate chunks and peppermint flavored frosting with crushed candy canes on top, a bit self explanatory I guess...

Anyway, the REAL news of the week is the birth of my most beautiful and favorite niece in the world! Just wait, you are about to be blown away by her beauty:

AHHHH!! Just makes you wanna pinch those cheeks!! :) So right now the whole family, including myself, is obsessing over her...I mean really, can you blame us??
In other news..Eric took me to Chicago after Thanksgiving to celebrate our anniversary. While we were there he spoiled me rotten! We got to eat at Superdawgs, which has been featured on the Food Network for their hot dogs, and Giordano's, which has Chicago style deep dish pizza to die for!

 I love this picture of the skyline reflected in the Bean!

Superdawg!!
All in all I am one very lucky and well fed girl ;)
Ok ok, so back to cupcakes.. I just had another order placed for Christmas which is for pumpkin with maple cream cheese frosting, banana nut, and Italian cream cupcakes. And I promise to take pictures of each batch, and I will also experiment with some before then too. So if you are wondering what to buy someone for Christmas, just buy them some cupcakes! :) I can't wait to try some new flavors and take some new pictures. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and is having a wonderful Christmas season!
Stay sassy...and eat something sweet!
