Bake and Craft Sale at work
Erin and I somehow were convinced to make cupcakes for the work bake sale - and we went crazy. 80 cupcakes - Ginger Bread with Vanilla Cream Frosting, Mocha Cocoa with Vanilla Cream Frosting, and Erin's Red Velvet with White Chocolate Cream cheese frosting. 

Also, many loaves of various sizes of cake breads. My Mom's Apple Spice, the Pumpkin Zucchini of previous posts, Erin's Peanutbutter Chocolate Banana, and Lemon Almond.
Madness I tell you.

We make cupcake toppers, and Dan designed a logo. It was fun, stressful and whatnot though.

In the end, we sold everything but what you see here...

and then a few people came by and bought all but 4 cakes!

Snowman Cake
The evening before his work holiday party - Dan mentioned that there was a desert contest. Damnit. He hada good idea too - a snowman cake! And so it goes.

Sadly, he did not fare the car trip well - and started to melt.

He did win me 20 bucks though.
Cocoa and Marshmallows

I made a test batch of marshmallows today. As well as developed a recipe for hot cocoa - christmas gifts! (more when they're done)
