Most Adorable Cupcakes! :)

Ok, so one of my closest friends is about to have her first- a boy! We're all insanely excited and a few girlfriends and I saw her to celebrate her birthday a couple days ago. We spent forever just standing around the baby's room having girl-talk and totally dying over the cuteness everywhere! Ummm, yeah, it's outta control how cute her baby stuff is!

Ok... food blog, not baby blog... sorry! So, one of my girlfriends brought along some adorable and delicious cupcakes. The craziest part? We all thought they were store-bought from one of those trendy new cupcake boutiques, like Sweet in Harvard Square.

Nope. She baked them, decorated them, and even wrapped them in adorable little baked good boxes. The sweetest little thing ever. Literally. :)

Here they are: Coconut Cupcakes with Lime Basil Frosting, with a sprig of Thai Basil from her garden.

The best part? Ms. Kay has her own domestic diva blog, as well! :)

Three Kitties at Home!

This girl rocks it out- she balances a busy home with husband and kitties, working as a singer and at one of my fave spots, The Container Store, and rocks it out in all thing fashion and culinary. She even made butter! :) Enjoy the blog, everyone!
