stripes

I'm getting ready to have a movie watching party at my house and have now found the perfect dessert to serve with the giant bowl of popcorn flavored jelly beans. I'd just pick the marshmallows off the top and destroy it.

I know these are simple cookies with peppermint Hershey's Kisses on them but I just couldn't resist posting them, they're so cute! I'm getting into some serious holiday spirit already, a record early cheer from me. I certainly wouldn't turn down a box of these babies!

Admit it, you've still got a few candy canes hanging around. You're feeling a little guilty because you know you shouldn't eat them but you don't want to save some old cheap candy until next year. Go ahead, garnish some pancakes with them. I won't tell.

Just because you're a girly girl no one says you also can't be a badass. You show 'em, sister!

This is pretty much a room in a cake for me. The yellow walls, the stripes, I'd like that on a bedspread please.

I'd never even considered that giraffes' spots weren't as interesting as they could be until now. You go giraffe! You flaunt whatever pattern you like!

I want so badly to know what this tastes like! I adore lemon cheesecake with it's velvety goodness and delicate creamy texture. How on earth could someone make a cheesecake that looks like this and tastes like that? Bakers are full of magic and mysteries!

I wish the little wings on this hat could help me commute to work in the mornings. Walking is so boring.

Every once in a while a sweet treat comes along that is so simple and gorgeous in its simplicity. Chevrons! Easy, simple, stripey, amazing!

Bunny is so full of love that he's practically ripping himself off the bag to give you a hug. Awww, bunny c'mere!

Forget the tradition of ham for breakfast on Christmas morning. I want this cake first thing in the morning!

Merry Christmas, Cuteologists! Thanks so much for sticking with me through the site transition and embracing our new home. You get three slices of cake this year for being my favorite readers!

I'm not sure my legs could handle this kind of cute. They might just fall off.

Rainbows are seasonally appropriate for every season! They never go out of style.

Is it a mousse cake? A torte? What is the shiny goodness on top? How did they get all those crazy designs inside? I want to cut all my cakes in curved slices! There is too much going on here, I can't focus!

Industrious Gryffindor girls magically weave their own accessories. Can we get that spell over here? I could use a new headband!
