<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
I love celebrating St. Patrick's day. As a kid, I would always look forward to wearing my green to school (in hopes to not get pinched!). I loved the special meal my mom would make for us that included corned beef, cabbage and potatoes. I still look forward to this meal all year long! But I also LOVE the Irish Soda Bread that my mom made growing up that goes along with the meal. This is a very simple bread that takes just under an hour total to make. </div>

First, put all the dry ingredients in the bowl and whisk together. Add the butter in chunks and use a pastry cutter or two knives to cut the butter into little pea sizes.</div>

Form them into two round loaves. Cut a cross in the center. If you want your bread to have a nice browned top, paint buttermilk over the top with a pastry brush. Place in a preheated oven set to 375 and bake for 35-40 minutes.</div>

<span style="text-align: start;">I usually dread this holiday as another year that has passed where I am alone... wishing I would have flowers waiting for me at home or a special night out to look forward to. This year, for some reason, I'm not feeling those same feelings. </span></div>

I'm not sure why exactly. I do know that God is definitely working on me to be content with where my life is at in the present. And to be thankful for how He has blessed me. I'm realizing more and more that life is short. That I am called to live a purposeful life; using the gifts He has given me. And to love those who He has brought into my life.</div>

For years, my family has been creating and exchanging Valentine cards with one another and I haven't really thought much about it. As I've grown older, I see how special that really is. It's not that there is something particularly special about this day but, that it serves as a good reminder to us that we are called to LOVE one another. This has become a small way that we can share how much each other means. A handwritten message says so much more that a cutesy card just can't.</div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Danish Puff </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: xx-small;">(recipe adapted from Betty Crocker 1969)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1/2 cup butter softened</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 cup all-purpose flour</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 tablespoon water</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1/2 cup butter</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 cup water</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 teaspoon almond extract</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 cup all purpose flour</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3 eggs</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sliced Almonds</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cut the 1/2 cup butter into 1 cup flour. Sprinkle 2 T water over mixture and mix. Round into ball and divide in half. On an ungreased baking sheet, pat each half into a strip 12x3 inches. They should be about 3 inches apart.<br />
<br />
Heat 1/2 cup butter and 1 cup water to a rolling boil in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat and quickly stir in almond extract and 1 cup flour. Stir vigorously over low heat until mixture forms a ball, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Beat in eggs, all at once, until smooth and glossy.<br />
<br />
Divide in half, spread each half evenly over each strip. Bake about 60 minutes or until topping is crisp and brown. Cool. Frost with glaze (below) and sprinkle generously with nuts.<br />
<br />
Glaze<br />
Mix 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar, 2 tablespoons butter (softened), 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and 1-2 tablespoons warm water until smooth.<br />
<br />
Enjoy!<br />

This past week we did a fun little Holiday Photo shoot with my dad's '53 Ford red pick up truck and my good friend Kelly of <a href="http://kelameliaphotography.com/">Kelamelia Photography</a>. For the sweets we had chocolate sugar cookie sandwich cookies filled with buttercream and chocolate cupcakes with candied cranberries. The cake was a tall tiered rustic cake with gold embellishment. </div>

We hope you all had a very blessed Christmas with your loved ones. </div>

What a beautiful setting it was! From the very beginning, Katie and Joe were so sweet to work with. After our initial tasting, they stopped by our markets to try out more of our cupcake flavors. In the end, they went with Red Velvet, Black and White, Coconut, Chocolate Peanut butter, Hummingbird and German Chocolate. Below are photos of their beautiful day documented by the talented Sasha of <a href="http://www.sashareiko.com/">Sasha Reiko Photography</a>.<br />

For Skylar and Jaren's backyard wedding they went with a Rustic buttercream cake with our Hummingbird, Pina Colada and Lemon Blueberry flavors. Along with the wedding cake we also created a dessert table display that had Mini Cupcakes, Leaf Sugar Cookies, Salted Caramel and Chocolate Oat Bars and our Mason Jar Fruit Crisps in Peach, Apple and Triple berry. </div>

This past weekend we celebrated my nephew and niece, August and Ashlynn, turning 4 and 6. This year for their combined party, they chose a Circus theme. My sister creatively designed 2 hours of FUN for these two and their friends. I hope you enjoy taking a peek at these pics and grab an idea or two. :)<br />

When the guests arrived, they were directed to a circus themed craft, (easily found at your local craft store) an animal mask to paint. <br />

One of the sweetest privileges I get as a baker is to hold the secret of mom's and dad's-to-be as they find out the gender of their baby. This one was extra special because it was for my friend Ashley and her husband Bryan as they are soon-to-be parents to a... little girl! :) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Congratulations to you both!</div>

Last month, I had the privilege of hosting a photo shoot at my house with some very dear friends and their kids to promote my newest addition to my business - Cupcake Decorating Parties. It was such a blast! The plan was to have the party outside, and in Seattle, that's a little tricky to do in May. I prayed a lot! I wanted the color scheme to be multicolored, bright and fun since there would be boys and girls at the party. I hung streamers and paper fans on my front porch. </div>

(My favorite was the screen door - I didn't want to take it down for a few days. ;) ) </div>

I had so much fun dreaming up this lavender dessert table inspired by some of my favorite milk glass vintage pieces. The ruffled milk glass cake stand, has been in my family for as long as I can remember. It always came out to hold the cake for family birthday parties. Over the years, I've collected a few pieces of my own. For this shoot, I just decided to keep the colors very simplistic, and just added some hints of lavender. </div>

Such a fun theme! In her invitations, she asked for the parents to let her know what size t-shirt their child would need. When the kids arrived, they got to choose what tie-dye design they wanted and then we helped them add the rubber bands to their shirts. We called the kids over a couple at a time to start the dyeing while the rest of the kids played in the yard. When all of them were finished, they were put into a plastic bag with instructions for the parents on how wash them when they got home. It was such a fun project for the kids and they all turned out so cool! And of course, we couldn't have a Tie-Dye themed party without a fun Ombre cake (inside and out)! <br />

Last night was my friends theme dinner and naturally the theme was St. Patricks Day. I LOVE corned beef, cabbage and potatoes and look forward to this meal all year long. But I also LOVE the Irish Soda Bread that my mom made growing up that goes along with the meal. So after a busy day, I came home and whipped these two loaves up. This is a very simple bread that takes just under an hour total to make.<br />

<br />
First, put all the dry ingredients in the bowl and whisk together. Add the butter in chunks and use a pastry cutter or two knives to cut the butter into little pea sizes.<br />

<br />
Mix together the egg and buttermilk and and add along with the currents, to the dry ingredients. Then take it to a floured surface to knead for 3 minutes. Once the dough is no longer sticky, cut the dough in half.<br />

<br />
Form them into two round loaves. Cut a cross in the center. If you want your bread to have a nice browned top, paint buttermilk over the top with a pastry brush. Place in a preheated oven set to 375 and bake for 35-40 minutes.<br />

This past weekend I had so much fun creating this shoot in my backyard! Inspired by some of my favorite vintage pieces; hobnail milk glass pitcher set and antique oak tea cart. This three tiered cake is frosted in a Rustic, Vintage buttercream design with just a touch of color in the pink satin ribbon. </div>

I am not a big one for making New Years Resolutions. This year has not been an easy year by any means. It was full of ups and many deep pits. Over time I have learned that it is good to look back and remember the good parts even with the bad. It's a way to see how God's hand was there amidst even the hardest parts. I still have many unanswered questions, but I know that He walked with me through it all and continues to do so every day. One thing this reflection has helped me with is to truly see that I have many blessings to be thankful for. Even as I write this post, I still have many unfulfilled dreams but, I know that I can rest and trust in His perfect timing. I would really encourage doing your own Year in Review! :)<br />

Awhile back I had seen several 'Favorite Things' parties popping up on many different blogs. It sounded like such a fun idea that I knew I wanted to throw one myself. As my birthday started approaching I thought... Why not? This would be such a fun girls night! Now if you don't know what I'm talking about, here's the gist... you invite your girlfriends over and ask each one to think of one of their favorite things that they would want to share and bring 4 of them, unwrapped. Each girl would then go home with 4 new favorite things!<br />
<br />

About a month ahead, I sent out these invitations. I included an idea sheet also to help them out with their gift idea.<br />

I made bags with each girls name on them so, they would have a place to put their favorite things as they shopped throughout the evening. <br />

When each girl arrived, they were instructed to fill out a card with their favorite thing and then their name. We displayed each one on cake plates on my farm table. <br />

<br />
For food, I served light appetizers and drinks while the girls were arriving. Since this was my favorite things party, for desserts I served some of my favorites! Salted Caramel Coconut cake, a Chocolate, Vanilla, Raspberry White Chocolate cake, Sugar cookies, Peppermint Brownies and mini Coconut cupcakes. <br />

At the end of the evening, I brought out one more tray of gifts. As I thanked each one for coming, I drew names and each girl could pick an item from the tray to take home. <br />

Peppermint Dark Chocolate Mousse<br />
<br />
8 ounces semi or bittersweet chocolate (chips or chopped)<br />
2 tablespoons cream or milk<br />
1 teaspoon peppermint extract<br />
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract<br />
1 1/2 cups heavy cream<br />
<br />
Place chopped chocolate, 2 tablespoons cream and peppermint into a bowl and place over simmering water. Once the water comes to a simmer, turn the heat off and let the chocolate melt slowly. Once the mixture is cool, beat the heavy cream with vanilla till soft peaks. Fold the chocolate, a little at a time, into the cream. Use the mousse right away or put into dessert cups and refrigerate. Serve at room temperature and top with crushed peppermint candies (optional).<br />
<br />
Merry Christmas!<br />

It was so much fun! For those of you who have not done one of these, basically you bake a lot of one kind of cookie (ours was 6 dozen packaged into 12 half dozens). Then you get a half dozen of each kind of cookie that your friends bring, which is A LOT of cookies! Now, I need to figure out what to do with all these cookies!! :) <br />
<br />
I (of course) looked on <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/">Pinterest</a> for inspiration. I found these <a href="http://www.gleamitup.com/15-merry-christmas-cookies/">cookies</a> that looked fun. I just switched out the recipe for my own sugar cookie recipe that I love. They were a bit time consuming but, so worth it in the end. Look how festive they are! In case you have not done all of your baking for the season yet, I am posting the recipe below. :)<br />

What says Fall better than apples, cinnamon and cloves??? Growing up, my mom would make our family this recipe of Applesauce Spice cake when the apples started ripening up outside (we had 9 apple trees in our yard). This is a very simple and moist cake for any celebration or just to serve your family on a cool, rainy weekend. I hope you enjoy it as much as we have! :)<br />

<b>Applesauce Spice Cake</b><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">makes 17 cupcakes </span><br />
<br />
1 1/2 cups sugar<br />
1/2 cup butter<br />
1 egg<br />
1 teaspoon vanilla<br />
1 1/2 cups applesauce (no sugar added)<br />
2 cups all purpose flour<br />
1 teaspoon cinnamon<br />
1 teaspoon cloves<br />
2 teaspoons baking soda<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
In a stand mixer, cream the sugar and butter together until light and fluffy. Add the egg, vanilla and applesauce. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cinnamon, cloves and soda. Add to the applesauce mixture and stir to combine. Pour into a greased 9 x 13 pan or into lined cupcake pans. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Let cool and top with my favorite creamy vanilla frosting (recipe below).</div>

<br />
I am so excited for this summer! New markets, confectionary classes and traveling. As I'm writing this though, I'm getting a little nervous just thinking about all that I need to do to get ready... This is definitely list making time! <br />
<br />
First, I want to keep you all up to date about the Markets we will be at this summer. We will continue to be at <a href="http://www.mukilteofarmersmarket.org/">Mukilteo Farmers Market</a> on Wednesdays and <a href="http://www.shorelinefarmersmarket.org/">Shoreline Farmers Market</a> on Saturdays. In addition to those, we will be popping up at the <a href="http://www.historicedmonds.org/Summer_Market.html">Edmonds Farmers Market</a> and <a href="http://www.ci.lynnwood.wa.us/Government/.../FarmersMarket.htm">Lynnwood Farmers Market</a> a few times throughout the summer. We are so excited for these new market opportunities!<br />
<br />
Later this Summer, the end of the July through August, I will be taking a break from markets to be a part of <a href="http://bonniegordoncollege.com/">Bonnie Gordon School of Confectionary Arts</a> Decorating Essentials program in Toronto. I am SO excited for this opportunity to increase my skills in confectionary design! Bear in mind that during this time we will not be able to take orders. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://funkyjunksisters.blogspot.com/">Funky Junk Vintage Market</a> ~ June 20th and 21st<br />
If you like vintage, DIY creative projects or shabby chic then this is the place for you! The market is held at the Puyallup Fairgrounds Friday night and Saturday all day. This will be my fourth time being a vendor at this market and I LOVE it every time! Stop by for some delicious sweets as you shop! Check out the link for ticket information and times.<br />

All went perfectly except for the weather... I had a vision to be outside under white tents surrounded by the beauty blooming in my yard right now but, instead we had Seattle monsoons all weekend long... We had a great time despite the downpour. :) <br />
<br />
It was so much fun to treat my friends to a delicious High Tea. The menu included Orange Citrus Scones with Devonshire Cream, Cucumber and Herb cream cheese tea sandwiches, Cream filled Strawberries, and Chocolate Mousse. I can't wait to do this again 'just because'! :)<br />
