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!

I am ready for the holiday food and festivities to arrive!

I have watched Elf 6 7 times since Halloween.  That movie really put me in the mood, especially because I have a trip planned to “a magical land called New York City.”  I will be watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade live this year!

I will definitely be busy until the New Year, but mostly with family and friends.  I can’t believe this year has nearly passed.

Things to do before Christmas:

-Go to NYC and have a Fabulous time!
-Bake a lot of sweets. Yum!
-Buy presents for my huge family!
-Enjoy the weather.
