I have said a few times before that I bake with my emotions. Not many understand how I do it… my boyfriend being one of them. I love to bake but when I have a horrible day and I actually have time to bake or cook, I go all out, because I know that baking will get me out of my bad day slump. Thursday was one of those days. I was on my way to class and almost got hit, I didnt do as well on a test as I thought I should have, my Grandma is in the hospital, and I had been having a rough time with how I felt about myself. I was having a BAD day.
I got out my cake mixes and eggs and some fondant! Oh I cant forget the chocolate! I baked away my blues. Nothing brings me more happiness. I love to bake. I might have spent 3 hours making these cupcakes and my boyfriend asks me, “Why do you spend so much time on making something that people are going to eat in a minute or two?” And all I can say is I LOVE making beautiful, and delicious Sweets. Thats all there is to it. So here is the beautiful creations that came out of my crappy day. These turned my frown upside down.


So with Valentines Day coming up I have been trying to think of a perfect dessert for my boyfriend to share on this special evening together, but I cant think of a damn thing he will enjoy. He is such a picky eater, and I am clueless on what to make. I love baking and being creative, but he is unappricitive of my work. He cant have chocolate, and he wont eat whip cream either. Can some one give me some ideas???

So I took a major step in my cooking… I entered my pepperoni chicken recipe in a recipe contest. I have never entered myself in a contest like this before. If I win first place the prize money is $25,000. I’m nervous, but so very excited!!!!
Wish me luck!
