I have awesome friends...

...who are also enablers! How can I not bake more stuff when people give me cool baking stuff for my birthday?
A convertible cupcake and cake carrier. The solution to my frequent frustration of how to actually transport what I’ve made to wherever its going to be consumed.

A three-tiered cooling rack! My counter space is thrilled! Not to mention this gives me a little bit more credibility as a baker since every recipe (almost) mentions letting things cool on a rack.
On the bottom left are a set of matroyshka doll measuring cups. Probably not necessary but definitely awesome. You know what’s great about these? There’s 2/3 cup measure! I like this because 1) it reduces measuring steps and 2) all proper science majors know that this will reduce errors in measurement (esp. since baking is like chemistry/science but yummier).
In the back right is a measuring cup with some interesting measurements on it.


In conclusion, my friends are awesome.
On a side note, as Valentine’s Day is around the corner I just wanted to say a couple things:

I love this boy. He’s been the man in my life for the past 13 years.

His birthday is next week. Happy early birthday, Brownie!

My heart also belongs to this girl. She’s smart, adorable and a brat. She hates when I try to show her how much I love her. She also doesn’t like that I disappear for weeks at a time.

See? she won’t even look at me.

Can’t you just hear her? “Can we go now? I stood still, you took my picture, time to get on with my walk!”

And this is why I love driving to San Diego at sunset, traffic and all.
