Spring dresses

We were at Joanns Fabrics today and Zoe saw this fabric that she loved. She really wanted to have matching dresses with Lydia. The fabric had the top elastic part already done, so I literally had to sew up the back, hem it, and put on straps. They look so cute matching! Do you think I should make one for me, too?

Brown Sugar Pound Cupcakes with Brown butter frosting

I got a Martha Steward Living magazine to enjoy while in San Francisco. One of the articles was about cupcakes. Decadent cupcakes. Not one of the recipes calls for less than 2 sticks of butter in the cupcake alone, not to mention more for the frosing.

I could not resist making these, though I gave them away as fast as I could so I wouldn't consume them all. They were as delicious and evil as you would suspect.

Mine did not turn out cute, though they were tasty. So I stole Martha's picture.

Fishy valentines

The girls both made these fish for their valentines this year. They turned out so cute. We found the idea on familyfun.com
