While Matt's gone, I have lots of things I want to do to keep myself busy. Baking is at the top of that list. One thing I've loved about being home is having a BIG oven to bake in! It makes me really happy. If you follow me on Instagram (I'm kristineorpolly if you want to follow me!) or read my Valentine's Day blog post, you may have seen that I made delicious red velvet cupcakes for Valentine's Day. I have made it my goal to make a batch every week and deliver happiness to all my friends. What kind of cupcake should I make next week? Any suggestions?

I wanted to write more but I'm practically out the door to go to work... hope you have a lovely weekend!

Glad you had a great day anyway!  Maybe you should make green cupcakes to match with your tights? Haha :3

Alisha Hunsaker said...

So I've been dying to get some tights from we love colors but there are so many options! Do I get the Nylon/Lycra Microfiber solid color tights or just the regular solid color tights? What do you recommend?

I have to say, I just like good old vanilla cup cakes with butter icing. But for a 'healthy' alternative, I sometimes bake carrot cupcakes with cream cheese icining ... nom, nom!

Very cute look - I'm scared to try colored tights but you make it look elegant and easy! Mmmm, cupcakes .... I'd be interested in hearing if you find a good recipe for cookies and cream flavored cupcakes. :)
