I love baking; cupcakes, pies, cookies, brownies, cakes, or any other sweet delight. I have started my holiday baking and so far three creations were awesome and one was…ugly. Big Top cupcake round one was unsuccessful.

I baked a rum cake for the local nursing home and it was fabulous! I had to test it to make sure I wasn’t sending over something yucky. I’ll admit I didn’t want to deliver it after the tasting haha!

Update:

I finished 2 more rum cakes. They are also fabulous! I might have made 2 without oil but I’m not sure if I’m admitting that yet.

All in all this was a successful year of baking. It is Christmas Eve and I am heading home from work soon to make some brownies and cupcakes. I am super grateful to have the time and means to bake, be with family, and enjoy life.

I wish you all happy holidays!
