I have had a busy past few days. My father-in-law Marv just turned 60 last week and we celebrated his birthday yesterday with friends and family. Because I love to bake, I volunteered to make him a cake and some cupcakes. I made 120 but only ended up bringing 24 home. I have my Stamp & Snack class tomorrow so I won't have to eat them all! :)
But I wanted to share a few pictures of the cupcakes in addition to the card I made for Marv.
This was my Friday night - thankfully, my husband took the older 2 boys out while I baked. And I mean that I didn't have to share the beaters! :)
Here they are all finished and ready to eat! There are Carrot Cake/Cream Cheese icing, Chocolate/Kahlua icing, Funfetti/Buttercream, Banana/Peanut Butter icing (we call them "Elvis" cupcakes) and Chocolate/Peanut Butter icing. Marv requested a special chocolate cake (with coffee in the cake) and a buttercream icing.
I really do have a great father-in-law. He has a fun personality, so I wanted to do something funny for him.
Our 5yo said "that's not very nice to say"... someday he'll understand. And yes... that really is dirt.
We had a great time and he really enjoyed the cakes and card!
Hope you have a wonderful Sunday - make sure to come back tomorrow for the Stamp Review Crew's latest.
