Mr. Bubbles

If I had my everything my way, it’d still be summer vacation and Bioshock 2 would already be out. Unfortunately, the world is cruel on both those counts, so to console myself, I made some bubble tea. Ingredients For the bubbles 3 tsp sugar 1 cup of tapioca pearls (I used WuFuYuan pearls I bought [...]

Good dinner, Mary Kate!

Years ago, Fraz’s grandmother would make her husband dinner, then fish for thanks afterwards. If he didn’t show his appreciation upon the conclusion of the meal, she would say out loud, “Good dinner, Mary Kate!” Since then, it’s become a running joke to end meals with “Good dinner, Mary Kate!” despite whoever actually prepared the [...]

But wait, there’s MORE!

Cupcakes, that is. Karen made “Better Than Sex” cupcakes with two different icings, and Jo had her cupcake decorating contest! See the whole set here!

Previously in cupcakes

It’s cupcake weekend here in northern Virginia, thanks to Jo who, today, warmed up for her cupcake decorating contest that’ll take place tomorrow. I fully plan on spamming the internet with macro photos of the results afterwards. If they’re anything like all our … contests, I fully expect those cupcakes to entertain, terrify, and possibly [...]
