CUPCAKES!

In the last few months, on special occasions, we have welcomed a fun addition to our Sunday night gatherings at Momma Dough's mess hall- CUPCAKES!



And we're not talking your run of the mill, I didn't feel like baking a cake, cupcakes... but creative, TASTY, awesome cupcakes you don't know whether to frame or stick your face in.



These cupcakes were made for Poppa Dough's birthday. Doesn't it just look like it belongs in a Dr. Suess book? I love these ones!



And then there was Bobby's Birthday.


Only appropriately, Bobby got a baseball field for his birthday- Cards vs. Cubs, of course! Please note the Cincinnati Reds fan on the sideline for Aunt Lisa. Nice work, Momma Dough.




The bats were made from pretzels and the bases were made from hand-cut graham crackers... I mean, how clever is that??



She even made umpires!


Then I was Daphne's Baptism where she made a cross with Daphne's name on it, cupcakes with a water symbol on them, and a sweet garden.



And the latest masterpiece was the BALLS for little E.


This one is real, but you can hardly believe some of the ones below are completely edible!



tennis ball

volleyball

Red Bouncy Ball

Bowling Ball

Soccer ball

Koosh ball


Football

Baseball

Basketball

Wiffle Ball

The entire compilation


Unfortunately, we just get to look at them now, not eat them... oh well, I'm sure there will be more cupcakes in our future! Thank you, Momma Dough!
