Curious George and Kevin Henegar!

I recently posted a picture (using my cheap camera and horrible photography skills) of some monkey cupcakes that I made for our friend and favorite photographer, Kevin Henegar.  He sent me some beautiful shots from the Curious George birthday party him and his wife, Elysa held for their son, Adam and gave me permission to share them on my blog.  Check these out:

This last picture has nothing to do with cupcakes but I just love how Kevin was able to capture this moment of pure happiness on Adam's face.  Way to go Kevin and Happy Birthday, Adam!!!!

French Macarons - My Latest Obsession

Celebrations.com calls 'French Macarons' a chic alternative for the adult party favor. 

I call them my new best friend.

The thing I love the most about these delicous treats is that there are countless possibilities for flavors and colors (to match any party or event).  The one's I made today were raspberry chocolate and they were unbelievable!  My husband and I sat down today and came up with a list of flavors we would like to try and create:   chocolate caramel, chocolate passion fruit, peanut butter & jelly, tiramisu, chocolate bacon (yum!), bailey's irish cream, chocolate mint, cappuccino, key lime, rose, caramel and sea salt, vanilla bean, lavender scented...yikes.  I think I'm going to be busy.

Aren't they beautiful?  I am secretly hoping to have perfected them by the time we start selling our products at farmer's markets in May.  Wish me luck and have a happy Tuesday evening, everyone!

They look like they taste happy

I just got an email from a friend who found one of my cupcake pictures on a blog they recently read...the quote underneath the picture was "They look like they taste happy".  I think they taste happy too.  =)
