These matches are "strike anywhere" because hunger really can take over when you're not expecting it!

So much cupcake decorating is based on the notion of piling heaps of stuff on top of the cake, it's refreshing to see someone make use of negative space here, so to speak. A creamy pool of frosting in the middle of the cake is a nice change!

I've never had a cannelé before, but they look amazing. According to Mowielicious they are crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside and made with rum. Ooh mama I think I need to put on my baking face and tackle some of these babies! Have you had them? What did you think?

There is something special about warm, salty, freshly roasted peanuts. Especially at a baseball game. Walking around on crunched up shells is a special pleasure of its own.

Wild blueberries make me all giddy for summer. Picking them off the bush when they're warmed by the sun, it's almost impossible to not eat them all and have some left over for cake.

Scotties are so adorable with their bristly little whiskers and dapper, gentleman's eyebrows. The edible versions even have proper little red coats to keep them warm and fashionable.

Congratulations for what? Just for being you and being awesome and appreciating these amazing cupcakes as much as I do. I think that deserves a round of applause, a firm handshake, a hearty slap on the back, a shot of fine bourbon, a Cuban cigar. Good work friends. Looking at sweets all day isn't easy, I know.

Why is it so unusual to see colored sugar cookies that don't come in a frozen tube? I honestly don't know if I've seen anything other than a macaron in this lovely shade of red. And why not? I say we start a revolution of homemade sugar cookies.

I wish ice cream didn't melt so fast because this is the kind of cone I'd like to spend some quality time with.

I almost enjoy listening to the process of cookies more than watching it. Lovely lovely!

This looks like the ideal breakfast when I had one too many the night before and I refuse to get out of bed for another couple more hours. If my husband would humor me and bring me berries and cream I might even agree to empty the litter box!

Let's play sleuths: What's the connection here? Sure sure, you may say it's someone's 20th birthday and they love owls but that's too easy. There must be a deeper meaning. Is there a secret society of owls? Is there a code to which side they wear their flowers on? Is 20 a mystical number?

Tea time just got seriously adorbz! Marmalade kitties are my favorite, especially when they actually taste like marmalade!

I like pastries and cakes that are modeled off stationary or wallpaper or fabric patterns. I'm not saying these birds are derived from another source but wouldn't an apron with these little guys on it just be the sweetest thing ever?

I don't often say this, but you've got to check out this etsy seller's entire site. The amazing variety of things made of sugar are staggering! Click the link under the photo and get to drooling. Then come back and tell me how much you love it!

I want to know what is deep in these chocolate cups, underneath all the chocolate swirls and curls and the delicious strawberries. What lurks there in the depths? Cake? Custard? A milkshake? What do you think?
