Pupcakes

Craig and I had a real treat last night -- we got to hang out with Gus (6) and Bea (1) while their parents (our friends Sandra and Eric) had a date night. Over the course of three hours or so, we were introduced to Barney, Build-A-Bearville, some cartoon called "Ben Ten," transformer nerf guns and Thomas the Train. But the biggest eye-opener of the evening was seeing Gus operate the DVR and the computer like a pro. I have a feeling "iTunes" was his first word. Impressive. And speaking of impressive, check out what Sandra sent us home with.


Sandra is so darn creative she could fill a blog of all the cool things she bakes, creates and designs. Sandra, consider this a challenge.

Oh, and in case you're curious, the cupcakes were carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. The eyes were chocolate chips, the nose was an M&M, the ears were marshmallows and I think the tongue was made out of marzipan. We're also pretty sure her inspiration was Luka (pre-ear hair trim).

Luca looks as sweet at that cream cheese frosting I used. Now you've got me thinking - how can I make Zoe out of baked goods? A chocolate lab is just begging to be created out of cocoa somehow.

Stay tuned.
