Cinnamon Sugar Marshmallow Crescent Roll Cupcakes

Posted on March 16, 2012 by Kara

I am going to take a little walk down memory lane today. Indulge me. When I was in junior high we had to take home economics for 1 quarter. Lets just say that the junior high Kara was not the baker/cook/seamstress that the current day Kara is. I remember for one of our sewing projects we had to make either an Esprit style bag or a duffel bag. For whatever reason, I chose duffel. Yeah, that was a disaster! Ha, I am pretty sure that someone else completed that project for me. I wish I could show you some of my college sewing projects. Ha! What a laugh! Anyway, one of the cooking projects we made in home-ec were these crescent roll cupcakes. I remember in junior high thinking they were just the best thing ever! 4 years later when Kelly was in junior high, Mrs. Shetzley’s home-ec class was still cranking them out.

Mint Oreo Cupcakes

Posted on March 9, 2012 by Kara

This week was the 100^th birthday of the Oreo. Happy birthday my dear friend! To honor the occasion they created a new Oreo flavor, cake batter. I have seen cake batter Oreos popping up on multiple blogs recently. I was pretty excited to get my hands on some. I love Oreos and I love cake batter, so I had high hopes for cake batter Oreos. But do you think I could find any? No!!! I looked at Target (twice) and a large grocery store by my house. No luck. I am not giving up though; I will find a package. Have you guys tried them? Are they good?

Brownie Banana Bread Cupcakes

Posted on February 20, 2012 by Kelly

Back In January my friend (and roommate!) celebrated her birthday. We had a party at our apartment and I made these cupcakes. The desire to make them first started when Alana told me that a guy from her work’s girlfriend…who works at an amazing bakery downtown…made banana chocolate chip cupcakes that were to die for. I so wanted to prove that my banana cupcakes could be better.

Mini Funfetti Cheesecakes

Posted on October 4, 2011 by Kara

As you read this I am probably laying by the pool enjoying my day in sunny Las Vegas. At least it better be sunny. We will be heading home Thursday and it is back to work Friday. Yuck. Who goes back to work on the Friday after vacation? Unfortunately I do, since I am out of vacation days. I envision myself being very crabby at work. The first day back to work after vacation is never fun. Add to that the fact that it is Friday, and I am sure to be miserable! But I guess I can’t complain too much since I just spent nearly a week catching up with friends and family from all over the country that I don’t get to see nearly enough. We were in Las Vegas to celebrate the wedding of one of my bestest friends! I’ll share pictures soon!
