Cupcakes and Cashmere

Sweet Things

I’ve always loved Valentine’s Day and not because of the sappy romantic stuff.  I love the process of doing little things for other people, even if it’s as simple as making cupcakes or writing a sweet note.  I’ve been gradually collecting festive baking supplies for months and since February’s only days away, I found it appropriate to bring them out and put them to good use.

Also, I’ve added several pink rings (just in time for Valentine’s Day) and necklaces to my Etsy shop!

Update: All necklaces and rings have sold out.  I will be adding more pieces to my shop shortly.  xx

    Yes I agree your jewelry sells out too fast! You really are good at it…perhaps you should think about a career change…? :) ~

    I definitely share your excitement for baked good!

    Today I made the toasted marshmallow milkshakes you wrote about! As a girl with an aversion to milkshakes ( I tend to try and chew them….weird…i know) I was very impressed! Another bonus? My whole apartment smelled lovely long after my mission was complete!

    This is my first Valentine’s Day I’ve been able to celebrate with someone so I’m quite excited.

    If you get the chance, I’d be incredibly delighted if you’d enter my Valentine’s Day Lingerie Giveaway!

    You can sell your cupcakes on etsy. Perfect idea, no?! I’d buy them all and have the most awesome/moderately pathetic Valentine’s day EVER.
