I spent this last Friday and Saturday at cupcake camp! By now you know I love baking and have began to dable in cake/cupcake decorating. I found out about this camp through a friend I went to high school with who was one of the main volunteers. And then once I found out that
Bakerella was going to be there I was SET! I also got to meet, take a class from, and actually assist
Michelle Bommarito!!! I also entered some cupcakes into a contest and donated some to the worthy cause of
Donate Life Northwest. You see, this whole cupcake camp was a charity even put on by Celeste of
Nye Beach Market in Newport, Oregon. Everyone there had something to share, learn, or give about this event. I myself am an organ donar should that time ever come. It was a toucing, exciting, fun, and pretty much
"one of the best things I've ever done for myself" kind of weekend.
I'm going to post some pictures tonight and I'll write more about the events of the weekend soon! Jason and I are currently cooking like crazy in the kitchen - we're finally trying to make a menu for one week, go shopping for the 'little' stuff that week (we do our big grocery shopping at Winco or Costco once a month). This will hopefully make us become more mindful of our food, our meals, and help us to not eat out as often, though that is still on the menu, but only a few times a month... baby steps :) More on that later too...
Onto the cupcake camp pictures!!!
