Revealing Time!!

I do apologize that it’s taken me this long to get this post up… work’s been kind of busy and I’ve been busy cleaning my house for Thanksgiving company… YIKES!!  Are you ready for my surprise????

Do you recognize us?  Isn’t it too cute!!  A year ago when I started my blog, I wasn’t really sure what to name it, so I just settled on Love Sweet Love… but I was never sold on it.  So, I’ve been thinking long and hard and I finally found a name that fits! 

 The Wiivers – Living the Wii Life

To find out the meaning behind the name and why I chose it, click the link above and check out my NEW BLOG!  I will no longer be updating this blog, so make sure and change your reader links to keep up on what I’m doing.

Thanks so much to Hannah from Craner Design Studio for creating my new blog!!

A Grand Surprise!

I know I’ve been soooo absent lately.  But I have a big surprise right around the corner.  Sit tight!!!!

Edited to Add:  No, I am not pregnant!  I went shopping with my parents today; and my mom made the conclusion that this post was about me being pregnant.  Not so!!  Sorry for the confusion/fals excitement mom.

CEiMB

I’m coming, I’m coming! I made this last night, but I didn’t have time to blog it before I left this morning… I’ll try to do it at lunch or it might be tonight… don’t shoot me!

Warning, Warning

I’m working on redoing my blog, so it may be changing on your computer.  I’m sure there’s a way to do this without “publishing” it, but I don’t know how… sooooo just bear with me.  Thanks!!

I’m still here!

In case you are thinking I have fallen off the face of the Earth, I really haven’t.  My allergies have been really really bad this year and I found out yesterday that it has developed into a severe sinus infection… so I probably won’t be cooking for a few days.  I’ll be back soon though…. promise!

Pumpkin Patch!

I didn’t have time to decorate today, but I thought I’d post some pictures of all the pumpkins we got!

Happy Labor Day!

I have been in a cake making mood lately.  Since my dad looooves cake, I decided he would be the perfect recipient for this cake.  I asked mom for a theme, but she was no help.   Sooo, I thought and thought.  Remembering Labor Day was this weekend, I decided I would make a tribute to his years in the Marine Corps! To some of you, this may not make sense, but my entire life (all 24 years of it) I thought that Memorial Day celebrated military members who had already died, and that Labor Day celebrated military members who are still alive.  Thus, in my mind, in made since to make a Marine cake for my dad since he’s still alive.   But after mentioning this idea to several friends and getting some funny looks, I decided maybe I should look up the meaning of Labor Day… much to my surprise, my idea of Labor Day was completely wrong!  To be honest, I still kinda think the “real” meaning of Labor Day is kind of lame, so I’m going to continue celebrating Labor Day the way I always have.

So, thanks to all military members!!  Here’s a cake for all the Marines, especially my dad!

The Marine Corps “emblem” is a white chocolate transfer.  Most people choose a simple design the first time, but being the dare devil I am, I decide to jump in with both feet and no life preserver.  After working on the emblem for so long, I was tired of cake, so please excuse the awful, bumpy icing.

Ooops, I gotta go.  I’m babysitting one of the coaches kids during practice today and they just showed up.  I’ll post a tutorial on how to do the transfer tomorrow.  Promise!

Cupcake Flavors?

I am at a lost on what to cook, so I’m drawing on all my faithful viewers (all 5 of you ) to help me out.  I’m going to a party this weekend.  I’m wanting to bring a dessert, cupcakes I think.  But I can’t think of what flavors I should make.  (This is where you all come in..) Post me a comment with your favorite cupcake flavor (cake and icing).  The winning combo will get a special surprise in the mail from me.   I have to make these tonight, so comment today!

Edited to Add:  This is an outside party.  So, it will probably be pretty warm.

Ready, Set, Comment!  

Florida Here I Come!

Bright and early this morning I am boarding a plane to visit my friend Christa in Florida!  I’ll be gone until Sunday, so the posts will be very few until I get back.  While I’m in Florida I am visiting a fabulous cupcake-ry, so stay tuned for the review!
