key lime cupcakes

Experimented this weekend - made these key lime coconut cupcakes with key lime frosting. I wish I wrote it down. mmmm mmmm tasty delicious....I had two - um, Saturday, and one Sunday. I won't tell how many R had...

Here's the frosting recipe, though. I did write that down once I got what I liked. And then I rolled the tops in more coconut. They were very tropical. Kind of like we were on vacation. sort of.

1/2 c butter
4 c confec sugar
2 T key lime juice
2 T milk
2 t grated key lime peel

spring wall art

Quick and easy project I did recently. The paper I had been saving for a long time, b/c I thought was way too pretty to cut up. Perfect for a little girl's nursery! (hahhahahaha! - we all know very well we will never have any little girls around here. just boys. lots of loud, smelly boys. :)

hello, spring.

Last year we - and I mean me - totally redid our backyard. Got rid of the desert landscaping and planted a ton of new plants. Well, I wanted to grow my own lavender for sachets and lavender cupcakes, so I planted a little bitty plant and thought it was dead most of the year. A few days ago, I went outside and saw these lavender blossoms. It's huge!
