I've been a bad girl...

I've been super bad about updating.  Life has been so busy lately.  I've been baking (tons) and I've been dying to show what I've been cranking out of my little kitchen.  Everything from Black Bottom Cupcakes to Cheesecakes to practice runs for my sister's upcoming wedding.  She'll be getting hitched at the end of April...eeep!


Right now I'm in the process of finding the perfect White Cake recipe for my sister Sam's wedding cake/cupcakes.  I am just so stinking blessed to be able to do this for my sister.  She means the world to me, so I HAVE to make this PERFECT!  Wish me luck!

My handsome son Elijah just turned 18 a few days ago.  Seriously where has the time gone?!  Seriously.  This day was so bittersweet.  This is what he ordered for his day.  Turtle Cheesecake, and just in case there wasn't enough for everyone I created some Turtle Cheesecake Cupcakes.  (Chocolate cupcakes filled with chocolate ganache 'hearts', topped with cream cheese butter cream with homemade chocolate & caramel sauce & roasted pecans.)  My hips prove how delicious these suckers turned out.

I hope heaven is made out of cream cheese anything.
