What an awesome timeline of romance! The birdies meet in the Fall at the bottom there, fall in love during the Winter months, and have a sweet little family by Spring! Huzzah for life and love and sugar!

Broccoli is by far my favorite vegetable. If I didn't abide by the urban hipster bible and only buy local organic produce I would eat broccoli every day and never get sick of it. With cheese, steamed with lemon, in a casserole. IN A CAKE OMG! Making pictures inside food with a broccoli tree, be still my beating heart!

Do you think your flowers and cuttings will last longer in a vase that seems to be soothing them with a song?

Are you a huge nerd like me? Do you love Game of Thrones and follow the old gods? Do you wish you had a creepy old tree with a face to pray to? You can at least eat this one!

Kleenex boxes are not so cute, just be careful to not blow your nose on Eeyore.

Your collection of fairy tales and stories about talking woodland creatures will be right at home on this adorable shelf.

Hey owl! It's okay, you can come sit with us! Here, borrow my scarf, you look cold. Do you want some of my hot chocolate? So when do we get to dig into this awesome cake anyway?

I wish I could have a full sized tree that looks like a swirl of green frosting with sprinkles. I'd just take little nibbles every day.

This cake makes me think of the book "Afternoon of the Elves" by Janet Talyor Lisle which I read when I was only 11. It's reminiscent of a girl in boots that are too big who spends all her time building houses for elves out of leaves in her back yard. But now she's all grown up and getting married to an equally elvin man and they are having a simple barefoot wedding in the woods.

How lovely is your frosting! The little sprinkles that I spy, they twinkle sweetly at my eye! Oh cupcake tree, oh cupcake tree, I want to lick your branches.

The delicate bit of blush on the cherry blossoms here is really what's getting me all swoony. So dreamy.

Ah, the tree is so serene and quiet and just enjoying the day. This is a lesson I could stand to learn today.

So the kid who finds the fish head on the tree Christmas morning gets extra tripe for dinner?

It's time. I know, it's crazy how fast this all happened. We have to start talking about Christmas now. These 3D cookies are going to the top of my list!
