Did you know Wednesday was Vanilla Cupcake Day?
I can’t tell you how useful my Sandra Boynton calendar has proved to be this past year. I may just have to get another for 2022.
Meantime, P and I made sure we celebrated the day in style …

Parker looks quite pleased and the cupcakes look luscious. The sprinkles on the cupcakes echo the sand on the painting and since it is going to be a gift for her, double joy all around.
Here in anticipation of getting my Covid booster, I took out some devil food cake that I made last week. I like to make a big 13x9x2 inch pan of cake , cut into portions and freeze. you never know when you might need cake and having just returned from getting my Covid booster, a cup of tea and a piece of chocolate goodness is just right.

great idea … never thought to freeze extra cake rather than let it torture me sitting on the counter …
and Parker took one look at Don’s assemblage in progress and correctly saw it as “beach” … that was all it took for him to gift it to her

funny you should say that … I just had to adjust her car seat since getting her buckled in had become quite a challenge … sadly, we have to remain cautious since P is too young to be vaccinated, so we don’t get to take her out to as many places as we’d like …

Gorgeous! I have just discovered this thing called a cupcake topper (over on Velma’s blog) and it had me in stitches. Who knew??? That calendar is brilliant – I love how it gives permission for a bit of fun and out of left field on certain days.

cupcake toppers? I didn’t know (and how did I miss that on Velma’s blog?) … and yes, Sandra Boynton has been making me laugh ever since I discovered her “Hippo birthday, two ewes” cards in college over 40 years ago … I’m so glad she’s still creating!

Apologies Liz, I think it was her Instagram maybe or her FB!
