Harvest Love

My arms are open wide, embracing the fall season. This is my FAVORITE time of year!! A few of my fall favorites: Cozy sweaters, toasty evenings by the fire with my boys, delicious soups, reconnecting with out of town family, crock pot dinners, holiday daydreams w/C~Love, digging through my costume box, walking through the leaves at Vasona Park, Friendship Thanksgiving at the Morello casa, metallic flecked scarves, skirts and sleek leather boots, pumpkin EVERYTHING, homemade apple pie, Mexican mocha's, sporting my signature color PURPLE and of course.....BAKING.

I am fully stocked and geared up for the fall/holiday baking season. It's going to be a busy one and I am ready to bake up a storm.

New Mira Cakes! My flavors for the fall season:

* Caramel Apple
* Pumpkin Spice
* Cranberry Orange
* Snickerdoodle

Happy Birthday C~Love!

Happy Birthday to my beautiful friend & creative soul~sister Christina! Our girls came together last night to celebrate the life of this lovely lady. These are photos of her special birthday cupcakes that reflected one of her many passions = sunflowers!

I baked my signature Red Velvet cupcakes because my girls love them. The white & dark chocolate sunflowers are handmade by me and dusted with a shimmery luster dust to really bring out the petals. The cupcakes look super elegant and reflect my sweet Christina perfectly.

Dreaming of Dahlias

A few new Hair Petals in the shop tonight. Dahlias are one of my all time FAVORITE flowers. Today, a gal in my office had a vase of the most STUNNING dark reddish~purple Dahlias. They were so dark that they we almost black. She said that the got them at Trader Joe's of all places. Must make a trip there tomorrow. For now, here are some Dahlias that keep on giving.....

Happy Weekend!

I finally revamped my Hair Petals shop! My studio setup made such a difference with the product photography. I listed 10 new pieces today and have a LOT of new creations in the works. Here are some photos of my new listed petals.....

Now that's done I have a handful of new cupcake orders to bake for new Willow Glen clients. Us Willow Glen peeps LOVE cuppies. Happy Labor Day everyone.

Enjoy :)
