Whoopsies!

Soo either my camera, memory card, or card reader that I usually use to take pictures with broke, which is why I never made a post about my other christmas party.. :( It is still yet to be fixed but I thought that I should update my blog somehow so I decided to use a different camera I had!

Anywaaaays this post is dedicated to my high school TA teacher, Mrs. Crowley! She's helped guide me through high school for the past four years and I am so thankful to have her as my TA! In fact, she was the one who persuaded me to start this blog! Earlier in the school year, I let her try my peanut butter chocolate chip flavored cupcakes and she later told me that they were her favorite! Because of this, I thought that my TA should do something for her since she's done so much for us for the past four years. I got my friend, Kris to ask her when her birthday was but, unfortunately, her birthday happened to fall during the summer! Did that stop me? Nope! That just meant that we would have to celebrate her half birthday! So me and two others in my TA (Tatiana and Kris), messaged everyone to try to bring something for her (a card, balloon, cookies, etc). Success..? Sure why not! It didn't necessarily go as planned, however; there really wasn't an exact plan anyways hahaha. On a positive note: she said her day wasn't going too well but that our little "celebration/scheme" made her day a lot better! :)
Another side note: she won "Teacher of the Year" this year and we never really fully congratulated her so I thought I would add that to the cupcakes I made her ;)








PS: this isn't related to this post but, Happy Chinese/Lunar New Year! Or as my family would say, "Chuc Mung Nam Moi!" :)

Practice Makes Perfect

...right? 

Well, hey!
The weather's getting colder, baking season is here, and black friday promotions are coming out, you know what that means?! 

IT'S HOLIDAY SEASON!
hehe
Last night, my friend, Anisha told me that she was having a holiday party at work. I gladly offered to make her holiday themed treats. Hopefully they looked festive enough...


Ornaments, Candy Canes, Stars, Stockings, Ribbons, and Presents

Eh, eh? At least I have more time to work on more ideas for future holiday parties/events! ;)


Note to self: Work on perfecting a "Hot/Spicy Red Velvet Cupcake..."
                     I just gotta keep remembering, "practice makes perfect."
