There's nothing funner than seeing kids enjoy sugar for the first time!

Fleur de Lis cake

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I've recently had a baby and he's been taking up much of my time! But here's a Fleur de Lis cake I made for my mother-in-law for her birthday!

And another view of it!

Camo Cupcakes!

 My sweet little nephew was born last week and his daddy asked me to make some Camo Cupcakes for visitors to enjoy while in the hospital.  I'm pretty proud with how they came out!

Doogie's Game Day Dip

Hello blog world! It's been awhile since I've posted anything here lately and i'm very sorry for that!  Today, what I have for you is actually a concoction of my husband's!  Today is the LSU vs. Alabama game and he REALLY wanted some chips and dip (b/c let's face it, what's football without some chips and dip?). 

Here's what you need...
1 lb. ground beef
16 oz. Velveeta cheese
1 can Rotel (we used w/ lime and cilantro)
1 packet Taco Seasoning
1 can Refried beans (we used spicy)
4 oz. Sour Cream
Bag Chips

Here's what you do...
Brown your meat. Add the juice of the Rotel and just a little water. Mix in the Taco Seasoning.  Cut up the Velveeta and add to mixture.  Add half the Rotel. Continually mix until cheese is melted (otherwise, cheese will stick to bottom of pan).  Add the rest of Rotel and Refried Beans.  Stir.  Add Sour Cream.  Stir.  ENJOY!!

Homemade Peanut Butter

First of all, let me say that Pinterest is AWESOME! I'm prolly going to have to start posting more things on this blog other than just food stuffs...that's how proud I am of my creations! And Pinterest has a lot to do with it!  Just the other night, I tried my hand at homemade peanut butter that I had heard from Pinterest and from my sister-in-law.  My sis explains it a whole lot simpler, so I suggest you go to her website...(let me brag on her for just a sec...she's doing this 50 Pinterest challenge with her daughter where she picks 50 different projects...whether it be food or crafts...and they do them together and then she blogs about them.  She's got some pretty neat things they've done.  So, check out her website-- My Awesome Sis)

Boy or Girl??

The hubs and I are having a baby (yay), and we decided that we wanted to tell everyone a fun way.  So I made cupcakes (of course)!

It's a boy!!



IT'S A BIRD, IT'S A PLANE...

NO! IT'S SUPERMAN!

Thanks B.M. and J.C. for helping me out! I had a lot of fun with you both!

Tip: DO NOT try to "flood" a cake like this.  It's messy and it just does not work!
