"Hello", to everyone out there in internet land! This is my very first blog so please bear with me as I attempt to dictate my daily life and trials and tribulations in the kitchen( and believe me, there will be a lot of them). So, about me. I'm Jill. Aged 25. Married and have 2 beautiful little boys. I am a Navy Wife and we are currently stationed in West Virginia.There isn't much to do out here in the boondocks, so I have recently decided to take up baking and crafting as a hobby to help cure my boredom. Now, I am pretty clumsy by nature; so some of these tasks may seem easy to some, but for me "something bad can always happen". Basically, this blog will chronicle my adventures, or misadventures, in the kitchen and in the craft room. I've begun to compile a list of baking/craft things that I want to complete this year, so maybe by the end of the week it will be up so you can follow along as I complete(or destroy) each project.
So, for starters....Some of my friends and I are having a bake sale tomorrow to fundraise for our Polar Plunge team. I found a great recipe and tute on Bakerella's site for cupcake bites....Suprisingly they came out looking and tasting great!
However, I also attempted Bakerell'a S'more Cupcakes...I followed the recipe to a T( I swear I did!!!!) and they came out looking awful. Their taste was okay I guess, but I didn't like the cocoa'y" --is that even a word?--aftertaste. I'll post a picture of this beautiful mess later on.
I was really in awe of my cupcake bites, though. I took about 30 pictures of them and felt like a proud new mom :).
