red velvet cup-awesome-cakes

have you ever had red velvet cake?it's matt's fav.
last week, our friend linda came over and
schooled us in her wicked red velvet cupcake making ways, a la a paula deen recipe.
i decided the cupcake version is even better- a higher frosting to cake ratio.
yummy + pretty- what more could you ask for?

our cute taste tester.
despite her ear infections she seemed to be able to lick the spoon.

m gives the batter a thumbs up

i can't lie- maybe we sampled the frosting too.

linda bears with our hot kitchen and frosts up the cupcakes

{love the raspberries!}

{sprinkles aren't bad either, and are in honor of little m}

hard working bakers, post frost fest

note m's matching cupcake shirt.
don't get that impressed-
i'm not usually that awesome as a mom.
some days you just luck out!
