On the way to *HPP...

...and back I took some more pictures.

I know you are probably thinking,
"What the what!? Two posts in one day??"
and I know it is exciting,
but don't get used to it, ok?

Watch out for the icicles...

Notice how even our license plate is covered?


*HPP = Hyde Park Produce

February 2010 Snow

We've had a bit of snow lately.
This first shot is from Sunday night.
Then we had a 2-day snowstorm
that gave us about a foot of snow.

The rest of the photos are during and after the snowfall.

*Also, a very happy 30th birthday to my big brother, Josh!
Love you!

Short & Sweet

My first attempt at from scratch cupcakes and icing...
Chocolate-cinnamon cupcakes
with cream cheese-cinnamon-almond icing.

Here are pictures for those who requested them.
Enjoy!
