Only a true prefessional can spot the oh-so-subtle signs of a bakery cleaning out their flotsam bin:

OH-SO-SUBTLE, I say.

And finally, I just found your new ice breaker for parties:

GUESS WHAT THIS IS:

If you guessed "a baby in a crib wearing a Christening gown" then, well, let's be honest: there's no way you guessed that.

Thanks to Bridget L., Renee D., Emily B., Kida, & Silvia L. for rockin' the cradle of "you've-gotta-be-kidding-me." Now quick, everyone, go print out that cookie picture for your next holiday party!

Sunday Sweets: Jen's Happy Cakes

I am forever hunting down the best cakes for Sunday Sweets, but a lot of my favorites just don't fit any particular theme; they just plain make me happy. So today, no theme; just Happy Jen Cakes!

Check out the little heart carved in the Eiffel Tower!

Sometimes I find little one-tier cakes especially delightful:

Robin's egg blue and rich red is another of my favorite color combos - plus look at all that delicate hand-piping! Perfection!

Here's another one-tier cutie, guaranteed to make you grin:

D'awww, puppy love at first sight!

And finally, let's wrap up this shiny happy cakes post with one last burst of color and a perfect yellow bow:

DO WANT.

Hope today's post made your Sunday extra happy, everyone!

P.S. I hear it's cold where some of you are. Need a new sweatshirt?

Novelty Fleece-Lined Hoody Sweatshirts

These ALSO make me happy, ha. There are lots more designs to choose from, but trust me, I picked the best two. :D
(Heads up: apparently these run 2 sizes too small.)
