There's a new domestic diva in town.

Yes. I made these. Alone, you ask? Nope. Heavily coached by Court and Brooke. I made Court take a picture of me in the making, just to prove to all of you shocked souls (you know who you are), that I actually created these with my own two hands. Best part? The backs of them say "GIVE THANKS" . . . a dual purpose, does it get any better?



I volunteered to make cupcakes for a girlfriend for her daughter's first birthday party. Alone, you ask? Nope. Heavily, coached by Annie, the cooking queen, who by the way has a popular cooking blog you can check out by clicking HERE.

Could the up and coming domestic Diva stop with just a simple cupcake? Heaven's no! What birthday party would be complete without some Barefoot Contessa cupcake pops? Did I make these alone, you ask? Nope. Heavily coached once again, by Anne Strawberry. Actually, I would say I more just watched Anne make these, but I did put the fabulous decor on top.

I'm starting the process of decorating a kids room for our house and want to make it a room that both Cannon and Lily can sleep in, down the road. I fell in love with this tree and cuckoo clock and so I decided to make them for the room! Just kidding, I bought them from PB Kids, mostly because I just didn't have time to make them . . .

I found this gorgeous fabric Alexander Henry fabric and ordered it on EBAY that I'm going to use for their bedding. I would totally whip out my Singer and sew up the duvet and shams myself, but my time is really too precious for that. So, I am going to have their bedding made by another domestic diva that my interior designer (aka my friend Courtney) has connections with.

*for those of you who might be reading this blog, and don't know me well . . . please don't judge me by this post. i'm mostly joking . . .

**to my mother, you really did try and help me to be a "real" domestic diva, so don't feel bad that I'm not.
