an e-cupcake for you ♥

♥ Happy Valentine's Day my beautiful friends! ♥

This post is to share an e-cupcake (red velvet with cream cheese or vanilla with cream cheese) with each and everyone one of you for Valentine's Day.  Its hard sending something to everyone, so this is the easiest way I know how to spread the Valentine love and cheer with all of you who I enjoy spending my online time with.  I love you all and hope you enjoy this little token today.

Plus this way is calorie and fat free.  Enjoy my friends!  ♥

crazier than a suspect on criminal minds...

Good Friday morning my sweet blogger friends!  I am so glad its Friday, and I'm pretty sure everyone else is too.  I can't say how chaotic and weird the last several days have been in Texas. 

This was LAST Friday..  Temperatures hovered in the single digits with windchills below zero.  Can we say BRRR??  Do you notice the height of the snow on the edge of the roof in the second picture?!   Haha and this is Texas we are talking about, where in a few wee months we will be passing the 100 degree mark.

And this was YESTERDAY!  Bright, sunny and not a cloud in the sky.  We are expecting 60 to 70 degree temps this weekend.  I can say this craziness is driving us all a little batty, but the nice increase in temperature is welcomed by all my fellow Texas friends as well as myself.

Oh and for a little more fun - my hair! Yes alot of people think it looks exactly the same - but meh I think its darker than what it was before.  Before it was all kinds of craziness on my head; now its just a nice chestnutty honey all over...  Did you notice my little rosette clip?? I couldn't resist adding to the wardrode yesterday. 

Have an amazing Friday and Valentine weekend my friends..  The mister and I have lots going on - well I think we do.  And Monday (Valentine's Day) I hope to share pictures of cupcakes galore - I'm making Red Velvet and now Carrot Cake (to please his sister's wishes) along with my pasta salad (recipe to be shared next week!)  

Are you doing anything special with your honey's this love filled weekend?!  Please share (well the appropriate things of course!)

Cheers,

anam cara & red velvet cake

Good Tuesday morning my lovely blogger friends!



totally sinful!!


I got a recipe from a dear friend of mine's blog, Anam Cara , for some amazing Red Velvet cake.  And if you know me, I love Red Velvet Cake.  Its up on the top of favorites when it comes to anything edible.  So when she shared the recipe she uses for Red Velvet, I knew I would have to borrow it and make some of my own.  Thanks Bekah for sharing!!

So for Valentine's Day ♥ this year, I plan on doing just that.  Red Velvet Cupcakes w/ Cream Cheese Frosting (of course!) with fun Valentine ♥ sprinkles for those I love. 

I will post pictures of my creations as soon as I get them done.  Along with the cupcakes, I plan on making pasta salad this weekend.  I know they don't go together, but man I've been craving my pasta salad so what better way to fix that craving than by making it??

Are you baking anything special for Valentine's Day ♥?? If so, share your recipes and pictures, as I would love to see!

XO

Cheers,
