flowers

I love the idea of seed bombing public places. Why shouldn't a bare lot be covered in lovely wildflowers?

I've had a photo of bird shaped cookies on my computer desktop for approximately a skrillion years now. These cupcakes win. The home decor inspired use of a floral with polka dots is genius! In fact, I may use this as inspiration to redecorate my home. Cupcakes, you win!

May your bangles never fade!

The things you can do with a bag of cheap-o toys and a glue gun really are astounding.

Ooh, I'd love to open a box and find a flower inside, only to realize that it's actually a delicious cupcake!

Piggies, stop staring at me so blankly with your super blankity blank faces. I can't get a read on you, you're creeping me out. Let's just eat and get it over with.

I love the motif of kind of spiky flowers like this on baked goods. It contrasts nicely with the soft roundness of the cake itself, don't you think? I don't know much about flowers but I bet you guys do; are there real life spiky flowers like that out in the wild?

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.

I've never seen a muffin covered in chocolate but I'll take it!

First, I apologize that I was unable to find a photo of this cake with a slice taken out of it. It's red velvet and I'm sure devastatingly beautiful. I'm super impressed with the buttercream piping skills on display here. Those roses are GORGEOUS. So I guess I can see why they didn't want to slice it in the photo but come on, throw us a bone.

An elephant never forgets and you'll never forget a 10th birthday party with an elephant theme like this. It's like a memory convention!

Sadly, you can't grow any actual gnomes with this kit. Just an assortment of flowers to attract all the neighborhood gnomes to your yard.

I feel like I'm jinxing the weather here with all my talk of "Spring is coming! Spring is coming!" but the rain stays and the cold stays and I'm beginning to think that I am bad luck. I just want to keep thinking warm thoughts.

This is the most delicious field of lilies I've ever seen. One part of me wants to lay down and roll around in it. But then there's the smart part of me who knows that being covered in sugar is not the best feeling in the world.

There are few things better than a white cat with mismatched eyes. My iPhone agrees!

They haven't grown their pokey bits yet, they're safe to cuddle.
