I'm late getting this posted today, but I think I have a very good reason. These are photos of Nora's birthday "cupcakes" a month ago. We chose to make homemade cupcakes instead of buying such things. Many people have allergies, and store bought ones can be so expensive and have such high sugar.
Two weeks ago, we celebrated our daughter's first birthday. We had a wonderful, rainy weekend and loved spending a little extra time with our friends and family on the special occasion. The party was originally set to be at our favorite park, but it was chilly and rainy. We couldn't reschedule because I had 48 large cupcakes and 24 small cupcakes already made. We relocated the even to our house and still enjoyed a fabulous celebration even in tighter quarters.
The day is ending rapidly, but I can't let it close completely without wishing my mom a Happy Birthday. She has taught me so much inside and outside of the kitchen. I love her so much for all she has done to support me my entire life
Sadly, we weren't able to see each other today. I worked late and my dad took off work to take her to a photo museum in Dayton Beach. I'm happy they enjoyed themselves and that the weather was wonderful.
It's not all about the food. In fact, this post is in no way related to food. But I was so proud of my purchase, I wanted to share it with all. And I know certain people who will say this isn't Eat Like a Rabbit worthy, but I can also expect there are a number of people who will like and appreciate the idea.
My birthday is this month, and as a result, I have received many coupons and "gift cards" from stores where I don't even have credit cards! On Sunday, I did my part to stimulate the economy by visiting our local mall to see what my coupons and gift cards could get me.
