Today was the first time I ever made eye contact with a cupcake. @_@ These little bunnies sure were sweet with my afternoon tea. The tea was Calendula, by Teaposy. I prefer a sweeter tea with sweets but the jasmine tones complimented the buttery, unsweetened coconut-dusted cupcakes very well.

I live 500 miles away from my hometown and miss my dear sister, Donna. Boo hoo. I was delighted to find a teacup in her favorite shade of yellow at the local thrift store last week. So of course I had to decorate some Gingerbread cookies in yellow and gold to go with the teacup. The water for tea is in the kettle. All that is missing is my sister. The next time she visits, she will drink from this cup.
To my sister, Donna: a pale yellow teacup and Gingerbread await you!
Ok, I’ll be honest, I almost ate my sister’s gingerbread! But I stopped in time to wrap it up well in plastic wrap and then foil and then freeze it. It will last well that way at least 6 months. In the meantime, I’ll eat one of the pink decorated hearts.
