baking, baking, baking



Hi gang!


Well, the Christmas season is here...yay ! I have my outdoor christmas lights on as of today, some decorations are appearing around the apartment, and the baking marathon has begun. Tonight I am prepping for a charity bake sale at work on Wednesday this week. Beginning with vanilla cupcakes that will be filled and iced on Tuesday night (one set will be a Boston Cream with chocolate icing and sprinkles, and the other will be "Fluffernutter" - what a funny name - peanut butter icing with mini-marshmallows and peanut butter chips). Here's a pic of the liners awaiting their cupcake delicious-ness. :)

So now i'm on to baking the jumbo soft oreo cookies while keeping one eye on the Canucks game.

Hope you have a great week !

Fun times

well it's been a fun weekend...Friday night was a Wrap Party for one of my teams (NCAA Basketball ) and we held it at Ceili's Irish Pub downtown. Drinks, food, karaoke and dancing til 2 am (or something like that) it was a total hoot. Saturday was luckily an easy day with no appointments or commitments, so it was a lazy day all the way.
Sunday was a Crop Day with the Scrapaholics ...lots of fun there! I did get some christmas tags done, and one lay-out of some schoolwork from my grade-school days ( my mom held on to almost everything but she has handed it over to me to get some de-cluttering done at her house). I won a door prize of some beautiful christmas papers and embellishments, and I won the 50/50 draw, $15.00!! :)
Now it's on to other house-work and getting ready for the week ahead with laundry and cooking. how exciting! :)
have a great week everyone !
thanks for stopping in,
