Vacation in a Cupcake!

Last week it was my turn to make dessert for our neighbor dinner. I was feeling the post-vacation blues so I turned I turned to these Malibu Pina Colada Cupcakes with Lime Cream Cheese Frosting from my handy dandy Sweet Tooth Pinterest board! I think they came out pretty good - they were more dense than a regular cupcake but still tasty!

We Are In Hawaii!

Okay so first things first - if you've never seen the youtube video "Kittens Inspired by Kittens" go watch it right now! Ever since the first time I've watched that video I've wanted to be in Hawaii so I could say "We are in Hawaii!" and it not be a lie!! So yay for finally going back to Hawaii! I took 700+ pictures in Hawaii and decided it would be too overwhelming to recap our trip on here (I uploaded 200+ to facebook) so I decided I would share my favorite palm tree and sunset photos. What says Hawaii more than palm trees and/or sunsets!! Good thing I'm obsessed with both! Oh and I'll start out with a few sunrise pictures from the day we went up to Haleakala.




Finally we have some light! Come on sun!

 


Almost there - the changing colors in the sky are so pretty



Breathtaking!
