Pinned It...Did It....

If you have read this blog, you know I am a fan of Pinterest. The virtual pin-board for virtually just about everything you could imagine. Or anything you can find on the internet...And if you know me personally, you know that I love, love love cupcakes! I found this pin on Pinterest:

and decided to try and recreate this lovely concoction. We had a bake sale fundraiser during the Valentine Basketball Tournament that goes on every February here in White Mountain and it was a perfect time to create heart-shapes lovelies. I don't think mind turned out quite as beautiful, but people sure loved them! Here they are:

I also wanted to use my decorating kit that I rarely use. I think they turned out lovely! Thank you Pinterest for the lovely idea.

What are your valentines day plans?

Fall Lovelies

I love fall time. I love the colors of the leaves, dressing for the weather in comfy sweaters and scarves, the homemade pumpkin spice lattes, the excitement the kiddos have for Halloween, caramel apples, candy corn,  fall crafts with leaves, pumpkins 'n apples,  and the countdown to the holidays!

However,  here in White Mountain Fall really only lasts about 2 weeks. Yeah, that's definitely not enough time to really enjoy my favorite season. Which is sadly disappointing. Thank goodness for my new favorite site: pinterest. 

I live vicariously through the inspiration I find here. If we had material and supplies for this stuff, I would be all over making some of these ideas:
