Girl Scout Cupcakes



Saturday Rachel's Girl Scout Troop bridged to "jazzy, jazzy" Juniors. Of course that called for cupcakes !! I think the "picture" cupcakes were a hit and every Scout knew exactly which cupcake was hers !! I made some minis to fill in the gaps on the cupcake stand !

Flowers for Mother's Day

No watering needed. Enjoy !


Because you asked...

S'more Cupcake Recipe.

Any dark chocolate cake mix. Place graham cracker crumbs moistened with a little butter in cupcake liner. Bake cupcakes according to package and cool.

The icing is Marshallow creme, yummy.

The original recipe said 16 oz. of marshallow creme which was way, way too much and 2 sticks of butter (softened), 2 cups confect. sugar and 1/2 tsp of vanilla. Blend by hand in bowl. You can 1/2 these amounts if you want or make the whole batch and just eat the left overs !!

Any hoo, Dump it in a ziplock bag and snip a hole and frost. Its a little runny - but s'mores are that way !! I did put it in the frig after a while and that did help "firm it up". Top with graham cracker crumbs and hersheys and enjoy !!

Butterflies are free to fly....



Aren't they beautiful?? Though Blake wasn't too thrilled when the butterflies were blocking his milk in the fridge. It went something like this.... "Why are there butterflies blocking my milk?" You don't hear that every day - too funny !!

I am going to take these to Bible Study tomorrow night. I think they may be appreciated more there!

Cure for the Swine Flu

Oink, oink. Boy these guys took a looooong time to make !! But aren't they cute?? Eat one of these sugar delights and you won't care if you have the swine flu or not. They look flesh color but they are really light pink and just adorable. I think next time, I might use mini marshallows for the nose just to switch it up. I also love how each one has a different personality with their eyes and noses - too funny ! No assembly line here - everyone was made by hand.
