The Post About The Slutty Witch and The Cupcake

I heart Halloween.

It's a day of sweets and disguises.


And more sweets.


Here are three goodies I brought to the table.

Pumpkin Cupcakes with Cream Cheese
Pumpkin Cupcakes with Cream Cheese icing. I bamboozled my nieces and nephew by making some of them look like pumpkins.

This recipe comes to me via my delightful coworker "Risa." She baked and our staff inhaled. They are that good.

The recipe came to her via Mother Martha.

Postrabbit: "Risa" has an incredible blog called "While I'm Waiting..." about the journey of faith and infertility. When I read it, I stop complaining about how big my calves are for any Fall boots. Perspective.

Pumpkin and Ghost Cake Pops
Bakerella strikes again. This time I ventured out and tried to make Cake Pops look like actual "things."

Halloween Cupcake Bites
Did someone say "Bakerella?" This was my first attempt at Cupcake Bites. They kicked my cupcake tuckus. But they were the perfect treat to hand out while I was dressed like this:

Halloween Cupcake Costume 2009
Food Network provided the war plans for this Cupcake Costume. However, the strategy was outlined for a 7-year-old. I am not shaped like a 7-year-old in a variety of ways, with two standing out in particular.

That's why my frosting is a bit "off."


Cupcake and Slutty Witch
Dilemma.


This costume prevented me from bending at the knee or waist. Sitting AND eating my traditional Halloween hot dog became a trial.


But God provided a slutty witch to meet my need.
