Red, white & blue fruit terrine by the Fat-free Vegan Kitchen … So if you’re a loyal reader, you know that every week here at Cupcake Rehab, I do a Military Monday post. I post a patriotic image (usually a dessert, in keeping with the Cupcake Rehab theme), and list the names of our men […]
Month: December 2009
Even cupcakes deserve ornaments at Christmas.
And speaking of ornaments, and deserving things… the famous Yoyo has added some new things to her store; including aprons and credit card holders, and perhaps soon- some doggie blankets. I highly suggest if you need to buy last minute gifts or you’re not seeing family/friends until after Christmas, that you check it out. The […]
Poinsettia (& Nigella) cupcakes.
I have no idea what possessed me to make these. I really don’t. I had Christmas cupcakes planned already, and they weren’t these. These were sort of an accident. Or a surprise I guess, that sounds nicer. I just randomly decided I wanted to make cupcakes, and I wanted to make a new recipe. However, […]
Gorgeous Christmas tree image courtesy of the Patriotic Wife … The 26th Military Monday is here, and this one is the last one before Christmas. At this time of year especially I think MM is an important thing. Christmas/Hanukkah/etc is no time to be away from family in a war zone, not that there’s a […]
My mom mentioned that this year for Christmas she might make her shortbread. She used to make it every Christmas, but hasn’t in a long time. It sorta put a bee in my bonnet (or a bug up my ass, if we’re being blunt) to try making it myself. I’ve never made it before, but […]
My cookies are exotic (get your mind out of the gutter).
A couple of months ago, my dear friend Lyns sent me a bottle of Rose Water in a package of liners, etc. Ever since I got it, I’ve been trying to decide what to make with it (it came with a recipe for Vanilla Rose Rice Pudding, which I will make someday, I just wanted […]
Gingy’s gingerbread cupcakes with lemon cream cheese frosting & gumdrop “buttons.”
I’m sure most of you have seen Shrek. Regardless of having children or not, it’s a movie that by now most of the world I think has either seen, read about, or heard enough about to know about Gingy. There’s even been a Broadway play version of it. So unless you live under a rock, […]
Red velvet cupcake & blue velvet cake from Alcove Cafe & Bakery, picture by weezermonkey … Another Military Monday is here. Like I said last week, please remember our Armed Forces & their families this time of year especially. It’s harder to be away from family & friends during the holidays, I’m sure. For more […]
Hot buttered rum cupcakes, for all your drunk relatives.
…Or your drunk friends. Or your drunken self. Sorry I’ve been MIA on the recipe front. It’s been a busy time of year, as usual. There are trees to put up, lights to hang, gifts to buy, etc. And this year has been made slightly busier because Miss Yoyo came to town this week, and […]
Diane’s gorgeous Veteran’s Day cake! ….. The first Military Monday of December is here. As the holiday season gets in full swing, let’s not forget those who’ve lost so much. And please don’t forget the servicemen and women who are still involved in the two wars we’re in as well. Please think about adopting a […]
