Pez dispensers and Kinder eggs

Hello, my bucket list, friends! The two items in the title above are two items that I have been buying a lot lately.  I love the toys that come with the Easter Kinder joy eggs. I also love how cute Pez dispensers are. On Wednesday, I got two new Pez dispensers. I got a cupcake and a pizza Pez dispenser. I love them both, but the cupcake is my favorite. Thursday, I bought three Kinder Joy eggs at Safeway because they are 3 for 5.00. I opened up one of the eggs yesterday, and it had a cute blue and white bunny inside. I wish the Easter themed Kinder eggs we available year round.  Oh, also, at Safeway on Thursday, I got a beautiful cupcake that had a plastic ring shaped like a crown on top. I hope you all have a great weekend. Thanks for reading!

Blogmas day 7 a Christmas cupcake!

Hello, my bucket list, friends ! It looks like we have made it thorough the first week of blogmas already. I guess I should not be surprised at how fast time is going by since it is already the end of the year. However, it seems like the older I get, the faster the time seems to go by. I’m sure next December will feel like it came out of nowhere just like this one did. Anyways it is time to talk about the super cute cupcake that I got yesterday. After work, my dad picked me up and told me that we needed to go to Safeway. I was not planning on going to the store, but I was excited to get some of my favorite things. After all, I was out of chips shaped like Christmas trees! While at the store,I went to the bakery to see what kind of cupcakes they had available. I was very happy to see that they had Christmas cupcakes that had fun toppers on them. Safeway has a really good bakery, and I love their cakes. This cupcake was no different it tasted perfect. It also had a cute plastic present on top of it. The present is red with a green bow. I love they way those colors look together. It was also the perfect size it was not of the huge ones that they sometimes have. This was the perfect way to end my day.

Thanks for reading about a fun cupcake!

Cupcake art !

Hello, my bucket list friends! Yesterday, I used my paint sticks again to create another piece of art. I didn’t know what I wanted to make at first so once again I turned to pintrest for inspiration. I decided to make a cupcake after finding easy step by step directions. I had a fun time drawing a huge cupcake with dots on it’s wrapper. The cherry on top is super cute. I’m glad that was included with in the instructions because it made the picture just a little better. I wonder what I will make next.

An interesting soda flavor and some beautiful cakes!

Hello, my bucket list friends! In my last post I talked about how I was a happy collector. Well there is another part of me that is happy at the moment and that is my sweet tooth! On Saturday I got some dragon fruit flavored soda. I was not sure how it would taste but it actually ended up tasting pretty good! It’s also a beautiful color. The one I had was Fanta brand but there may be other brands out there. I would definitely buy this soda again. Also I’m known to buy slices of cake and cupcakes when I go to the grocery store. Lately I’ve been impressed with the way they have been decorated. So many beautiful colors! Plus this one cupcake I got had plastic balloons on top! It was so cute and happy looking. I wonder what kind of soda of cake I’ll try next!

bucket list #142 make a perfect cupcake

Hello, my bucket list friends ! I’m so happy right now because I crossed another item off my bucket list ! I’m so excited to tell you about it ! Here we go !

 

bucket list #142 make a perfect cupcake

It was kind of hard at first to figure out what kind of cupcake to make since perfect is a matter of opinion . After some thinking I decided the prefect cupcake would have the following qualities. First they would need to be easy to make but they would also need include peppermint and my little pony decorations . I decided the best thing to do would be to use a box cake mix and then decorate the cupcakes with crushed candy canes and My Little Pony decorations.  I ordered two different kinds of My Little Pony cupcake decorations. The first ones that I ordered were cute plastic rings with My Little Ponies on them but after I ordered them it looked like it might take them a while to get to me. I decided to order  some other My little pony cupcakes toppers as well. These cupcake toppers were little tooth picks with ponies on top ! Buying everything else was pretty simple .Cake mix, frosting, and candy canes are pretty easy to find. Once I had everything I needed it was time to get baking ! Once I started to get everything together I realized that the vegetable oil in the kitchen was expired after searching the internet I found out that you could use butter instead .Then it was really time to get baking ! First I preheated the oven and then I put together all the ingredients as the box instructed . After I mixed everything together it was time to pour the batter into the cupcake pan  . I found some really cute cupcake liners in the cabinet that had balloons on them . After pouring the batter in the liners I put them in the oven and set the timer . After the cupcakes were baked perfectly I let them cool and then I put the rest of the batter in the oven .  When all the cupcakes were cooled they were ready to be frosted and decorated . The Cupcakes were very easy to frost with the premade frosting  and then I sprinkled the cupcakes with the peppermint that I crushed up . The last step was to put on the pony decorations. My cupcakes were really perfect and tasty ! I’m glad I crossed this fun item off my list .
