Oh.. Cup Cake

Oh cup cake

I'm not one for making cupcakes usually.. well at least not until we got Tamara.

I always felt that if you were going to go through the hassle of making batter and frosting.. it should be a cake. The mess left behind is after all pretty much the same. Well almost..ok not really but it is messy.

Below are a few pictures of the fruits of my labor today. I tried to use store bought frosting which was a huge mistake when it came to making flowers. So much for time savers?

Cup cakes for her preschool celebration Tuesday.

I'm going to attempt transporting them in their rack. I figure it can't be much harder then a wedding cake? right?

Tamara loves her cupcake tower and is very excited about taking them to school for her friends.

If this was a wedding I was planning this week.. I guess this cake would qualify as the grooms cake compared to what we'll attempt to make for her actual party on Sunday. I whipped up a 9" chocolate cake for Wednesday, fresh strawberries and whipped cream icing. Should be Yummy.

Tamara helps fill her Princess Castle Pinata with goodies.

Tired and grumpy.. she doesn't want to eat her supper.

Yup it's official she's a real 3 / 4 year old.

Well I have more to share but it will have to wait. It's going to be a pretty busy day here tomorrow so I need to finish up and try and catch a few hours of sleep.

More soon.
