Star Wars with Syrup on Top...

Sunday morning with the Meffords…

…because when you’ve only got one day off a week, you have to do it right

Saturday was pretty lonely with the boy at the hospital all day. It was so lonely, in fact, I had to go out and get some living things to keep me company.

Our patio is so colorful now!

A Summer Summary

I’ve been gone for awhile. As it turns out, finishing up the first year of medical school, planning a wedding, actually getting married, and having some personal time during the last summer of one’s life keeps a girl quite busy!

Tonight, I made some delicious cupcakes for a friend’s birthday. It’s a recipe I’ve been wanting to try for awhile. They are coffee cupcakes…literally. There’s a good deal of coffee in the batter. I topped them off with a confectioner’s sugar-free chocolate frosting. It uses heavy cream instead of butter, which is convenient since I had some extra cream around from making ice cream last week.

I’m sure they will be a hit with coffee lovers such as myself. The boy and I certainly enjoyed it…

Apart from sharing my latest baking adventure with you, I thought I’d do a little photo-tour of the past few months.
