Yesterday, I just had to make cupcakes. J wanted something to do, and I wanted cupcakes. So together we made them. I was hoping he would help me decorate them, but I was left to do it all by myself.
I did, however, have a lot of help eating them. My Dad came for supper again, A was here, Hubby polished off a few and J even licked the icing off of one,he doesn’t eat cake. I made him take a bite tonight and he was all, “Vile food Mummy, vile food!”. Surprisingly there are still some left. Maybe I have a little will power after all.
Apple was playing so nicely on the floor with her carrier that I was able to play around with some of the settings on my camera. I don’t often get a chance to do this so I thought I would post one of the many photos I took while trying stuff out. She was concentrating so hard, it was unbelievable. Today she was going up the stairs, but I couldn’t leave her to grab the camera for obvious reasons, so I will have to carry the camera around tomorrow and see if I or J can catch a photo of her climbing.
And a Robin update! We have three little babies. If you look carefully you can see the three little beaks sticking up in the air. The parents are pretty cool with us coming and going through the front door. But, when strangers come they flap constantly. It won’t belong and they will be flying away, leaving another empty nest.

The cupcakes look yummy! I know y’all will enjoy watching the robins. Keep us posted on how they do!
I just stumbled upon your site from another, and I have to say, those Cupcakes look divine!
Mmm, those cupcakes look so good!
Vile food Mommy, vile food! I giggled. Jack is the same way. Not about cake though but things like gummy bears.
🙂
Ah… we have hummingbird nests all around my house. I love seeing the little beaks pointing out of their miniature nests. But a cupcake sounds so good right now- not at all vile!
Oh my, those cupcakes look goooooood!

You rock at the whole cupcake thing. Did you take classes? Maybe you should teach classes (hint hint).
When we lived in our last house we had a nook just like yours and the robins had their nest there. They had their spring brood and then they always came back and had a summer nest with more babies. Hopefully you will get two families worth. It is so interesting to watch. D loved it.
Those cupcakes look so scrumptious, very professional! Too bad you couldn’t sell those on Etsy 😉
And baby robins, how sweet!
Ooooooooooh! Those cupcakes look delicious!!! I love how you decorated them! You are so creative and artistic! XO
