stripes

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

Is it colored cakes? Perfect frosting? It's too amazing, I can't even wrap my brains around it.

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 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.

What does rainbow fudge taste like, I wonder. Not like chocolate, I'm sure. It looks like a delicious stack of Starburst. Mmmm fruity.

I'd like to start the day every day with a bite of rainbows. How could you have a bad day when you wake up to this?

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!

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

Kids, always getting tired of walking. So lazy!

I wish I had a cute pair of socks and some sewing skills lying around so I could make my own squishy friends!

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

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.

Anybody else got a sock monkey in a costume? Let's get a little gallery going!

Normally I'd scream overkill at a cake this busy but there is some amazing balance going on here. A striped rainbow heart inside a striped rainbow cake? A rainbow of fondant sprinkles so perfect they must have been placed there by very patient elves? I swoon for this kind of overkill.

It's rainy season for sure, but that's good because it means we have the chance to see more rainbows! Here in Seattle there isn't a lot of color yet. People here tend to dress like the weather in grays and browns and greens. On the grayest of gray days I'd like to have a few of these cookies stashed away somewhere to brighten things up a little.
