More Fun Things To Do!

i'm so glad i didn't find out about this after the fact!
the Queen Bee Market is this friday and saturday!

Queen Bee Market 

i've checked out some of the vendors who are slated to "bee" there and i've already made a list of a couple of the places i'm going to make a "bee" line to!  :o)


i'm going to get some christmas shopping done, but i'm not sure if it'll be more gift shopping for others or for me.  ;o)


another thing going on this weekend is the Holiday Home Tour.

Holiday Home Tour

there are 4 incredible houses on the tour.  some with tennis and basketball courts, others with gourmet kitchens, and all have incredible views.  we'll have a holiday bakery & gourmet shop and an incredible marketplace where you can do some Christmas shopping.  


local designers get the homes all decked out for the holidays.  they do an amazing job... it's a great place to go to get some inspiration!


proceeds from this great event will go towards multiple $1000 scholarships to graduating seniors from our local high schools,  and a big chunk of the proceeds will go to Michelle's Place, a local women's breast cancer resource center. 


there's still time to purchase tickets.  here's a link with more information.  stop by will call, i'll be there selling tickets!  :o)

YUMMMM Cupcakes!

cupcake camp was a blast!  

sooo many talented bakers and soooo many beautiful diplays and deelish cupcakes!

there were a TON 'o people there supporting this great event... it was a little bit overwhelming.

here are some images from the day...

i love the name of these cupcakes... moulin rouge.  red velvet cupcakes.  yum.

 these minis were super cute with the little pink straw!

had to take a picture of these... all proceeds from the event went to the Komen Foundation. awesome!

 here is my sweet friend enjoying one her cupcakes.  blueberry.  yum!

for $10 we received 4 pink tickets and we visited all of the generous vendors who donated their cupcakes and traded tickets for cupcakes.  i chose the red velvet, a white cupcake with lemon curd frosting, a pumpkin and chocolate, and i'm not sure what flavor the black dress cupcake is, but is was too cute to pass up.  :o)

 i love the shimmery glitter on the moulin rouge cupcake!

i can't believe i made it home without consuming all of my cupcakes!

next event i'm looking forward to checking out... UCI's Vendor Fair

but for right now, my lemon cupcake is waiting for me on the coffee table in front of me and i have a cup of tea by my side.  i'm going to settle in and enjoy them both while enjoying the rest of sunday night football.

good night!  :o)

Cupcake Camp!

cupcake camp is finally here tomorrow at the beautiful Mission Inn in riverside!  can't wait!!

the mission inn is absolutely gorgeous, so if cupcakes aren't enough of a draw, come out to enjoy the beautiful architecture! :o)
