Last night, I felt like cooking something different and decided this broth had spent enough time hanging out. (I’ve been trying to get back to creating in general after a few very long, busy months!) It was so delicious.

Let Me Eat Cake!

June 17, 2011 by rhennen

I went to a at a BBQ this past weekend and one of the fellas made these absolutely wonderful red velvet cupcakes. They were just perfect – moist, even texture and the frosting was even edible.

The second time was better but clearly needs practice! Loved my colors and how the ferns look! ☺️
On the studio table today: pew cones or petal cone On the studio table today: pew cones or petal cones are the way they are most commonly described. 

I first made some for a friend's wedding. In the 3rd photo you can see the side didn't line up nicely but after a few attempts I figured out to cut off two corners to keep the most width at the top. 

The first version is fine for me which is now hanging on my staircase for Halloween! 👻 ⚰️🕷️ 🎃

I went camping 🏕️ in Vermont a couple weeks a I went camping 🏕️ in Vermont a couple weeks ago. It's not easy to sleep in when you're in a tent ⛺ 😂 so I was able to stumble across these lovely little wild beauties on the shore of the lake, still covered in dew. 

Dahlias and roses and peonies are stunning but I dunno, wildflowers always steal my heart 💓🌸
