There are still a few hours left to enter the awesome American Spoon Giveaway! 

 

 

Good Taste Pittsburgh today was a blast! There were SO many people there. I met some fellow bloggy friends, like Kelly from Bridges and Bites who is such a sweetheart, along with Alison who I am friend with on TastyKitchen. The crowd was great!

 

 

I had a couple thousand cupcakes to giveaway. :) Yummy, original flavors!

 

 

Here is what the booth looked like at 9am:

The crowd was MUCH larger than anticipated. By 11:30am, all of my cupcakes were gone! If you stopped by and I was out of them, I’m sorry it was too late. If you are in the Pittsburgh area, let me know and I can get you some free samples. :)

 

 

 

Who is this jet-engine-snoring, stuffed-turkey-loving, framed-wrestler picture-hanger fine specimen of a man?

Oh, why its my hubby. He was wonderful, excited, a huge help, and very hungry today. He brought the TV from our bedroom and played a slideshow of my blog pictures. What a guy.

 

 

Some early visitors munched on cupcakes.

Today I turn 27. Not too sure how I feel about that. I don’t like saying I am in my late twenties. So, I am officially declaring 27 mid twenties. And I’m gonna own it!

 

 

My husband got my birthday right this time.

He wrapped this gift ’so it looked like a tootsie roll.’ That’s straight from the horses mouth.

    So really, how was 26? I’ve always idealized 26 as the perfect age, but I still have a few years till I get there. :)

    Happy Birthday!

    How did you transport all of those cupcakes? Did you put the icing on after you got there?

    [...] I mixed it up with a block of softened cream cheese. Sometimes I use my food processor for this. I didn’t feel like getting it out, and my mixer was already warmed up from baking 1000 cupcakes. [...]

    [...] Cold butter. You don’t even want to know how many pounds of butter I went through when I was baking 1000 cupcakes. [...]

    [...] Last night we went to the Capitol Grille for a belated birthday celebration, since last week I spent my birthday baking cupcakes. [...]

    I was at GoodTaste Pittsburgh and was lucky enough to taste one of your vanilla bean cupcakes. They were so good and the one thing that I tasted that day that I still remember. And believe me, I tasted A LOT of food,
    Thank you so much for posting this recipe on your blog! I can’t wait to make these for my family.
    I picked up one of your cards and just got the chance to look at your site today. Everything looks great!

    HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY GIRL! those cupcakes look out of this world fabulous!
