The view from my fridge...
Happy Easter.
An Easter tradition...
Coconut carrot cupcakes with cream cheese icing.
Recipe:
Betty Cr*cker Carrot Cake mix... make it like the box says (they oughta know right?)... If you are brave mix in the following crushed pineapple, raisins, coconut, almonds, vanilla flavoring... I added all but the pineapple this year. Bake them for 17 minutes. Let them cool completely before icing (this is a biggie people... I am 37 and I still have trouble with the "let them cool before icing part".
Use the AWESOME Betty Cr*cker cream cheese icing...mix in lots of coconut and green food coloring until it looks like a grassy gloppy mess but tastes amazing. Shovel it on the cupcakes... the sloppier you are the better it looks because it is supposed to be grass!!! Add a bunny or a chick peep and a few jelly belly's for Easter eggs and viola... you are M*rtha Stewart!
Thinking that this is our last Easter as a twosome is thrilling! I can't wait to make these next year with a baby crawling or WALKING around!
Happy Easter... please say a prayer for us today.

Those are adorable! And I can't wait for next Easter, and seeing little Finley in a little Easter dress! Hang in there, not much longer, yay!
Those are such cute cupcakes. Nicely done.
I am anxious for Fin to get here - and I just need to say how wonderful it is that you are already so in love with the little girl you have not met and do not know. You have a special kind of heart - both of you do. And your daughter is going to fall so in love with you...
Hoping Fin arrives soon.
GREAT cup cakes!!!
