Sunday baking

I've been wanting to practice decorating onesie shaped cookies since I bought my cookie cutter several months back.  I'll be throwing a babyshower for a friend soon, so now was the perfect time to get in some practice.  Plus I love baking on Sunday's.  I think it's because it reminds me of home.  I'd usually be the one in the kitchen at night making treats for everyone since they wanted some and I'd give in easily to make them.

Michael loves to help me in the kitchen whenever he can.  I showed him how to flood the frosting on the cookie and he took right to it. Want to see how to do it?  Or how cute these onesie cookies can be?

 Look at that concentration.

 I think he enjoyed decorating them as much as I did. It really is quite fun and relaxing.

The only incident we encountered

Two I completed, ignore the flower.  I need more practice.

I set the timer to take this pic since Joe was busy watching football(can't wait for the season to end!).  Michel loves to take pictures using the timer.  As soon as it goes off he wants to take another.  This was our 5th try at a good pic.  I think he got more excited in each picture the more we took.

What do you do on a rainy Sunday afternoon while Daddy is sleeping?


Help Mommy make cupcakes of course!

Being such a good helper.

I hand him a spoon and he instantly puts in in the bowl and knocks it over.
He was only supposed to play with the spoon but he thought otherwise.

What do you do with the worlds ugliest looking cupcakes?

Frost them of course!

Daddy woke up and shared the leftover frosting.

He couldn't stop saying mmm after every little bite of frosting.
Happy Memorial Day!

The Bachelorette & Dessert

I am a huge fan of The Bachelorette and The Bachelor. Despite the shock of Jason's actions I WILL be watching the Bachelorette this season. Jillian sure had a wide range of men to choose from last night. Don't you think? Actually I was quite surprised by the fact that so many of them were from Texas! Yee haw! Y'all!

I can't believe that she kept Brian who was calling her "hot hottub lady" or whatever it was that he said. I thought that was stupid of him and it seemed like he saw her as more of an object than a woman with feelings. He does not have my vote! Maybe I'm going a little to far with this?

It's hard to remember them all but the ones who would get my vote so far- in random order are... Juan, Kypton & Sasha. Cute, cute & cute. Oh of course I think they are sweet too.

Who gets your vote?

In honor of another season starting I had to make a yummy dessert.

Be careful not to eat the whole pan yourself! Trust me you just might want to, until you read the calorie intake. The whole pan would be over 7000 calories! But they are oh so yummy!
