Sweet Treats, Sweet Memories!! Oh, and St. George!!




There are a lot of things that I have learned from my mother, cooking is not one of them. When I was in grade school I remember telling my mother that I needed to bring cupcakes to school. I remember her showing up with Hostess cupcakes that she had put in the paper cupcakes holders. She thought she was so clever, I just rolled my eyes and laughed. It is a memory that we still laugh about today.




Well, my daughter came to me this week and said that it was "Chocolate Week" and that she wanted to bring cupcakes. Well, you can only guess what came to my mind. My daughter has a caterer for a mother so she got a little different Hostess cupcake to take to school. I will probably still get the same reaction, a role of the eye. So, I don't think that it matters much how well you cook. But, I can tell you that the homemade devil's food cake and homemade icing taste a smidge better than Hostess...hee hee! Sorry Mom. Oh, and aren't they just so stinkin' cute.




So, when I am not cooking for my daughter's class, we went to St. George last weekend and took in the sun. It was a much needed vacation and we had a blast. We went hiking in Snow Canyon, went golfing, went to movies, went and saw G-ma, and RELAXED!!! Enjoy the pics.
