My Big Sister's Birthday May 18th

As you can tell, May 18th was a very busy day for me! It was both my wedding anniversary as well as being my big sister's birthday. To show my appreciation for her, I am enclosing some quotes about sisters:

My sister, someone who has always been there for the good times and the bad times.

Catherine Pulsifer

While we were born sisters, we grew up to be friends.

Catherine Pulsifer

The best thing about having a sister was that I always had a friend.

Cali Rae Turner

Brothers and sisters are as close as hands and feet.

Vietnamese Proverb

I hereby wish her all the happiness, joy and health life offers and many joyous returns!

Wedding Anniversary May 18th

Tchaba Day Box of Tea

Today or rather yesterday was my wedding anniversary! I am looking forward to many more loving years with my darling husband! The pictures of the Tchaba tea leaves are gifts from our good friends who wanted to congratulate us on our marriage. I'm looking forward to trying the tea soon and I will let you know what I think.

My Neighbour's Small Dinner Party

I made this plate of canapes for my neighbour's small dinner party which i had been invited to earlier. I was inspired to create this selection after browsing through some foodie magazines. Funny how inspiration strikes! As promised, there will be more and better pictures to come. Gotta run now!

Canapes Coming?

And for my loyal fans, I will be posting pictures of my Canapes soon! I know many of you have been waiting patiently for me to post them and I must apologize for the delay! Unfortunately, with little ones running around, fulfilling the orders for my "Flowers" Cupcakes, I just haven"t had time to take nice pictures of the canapes and put them up. But I will be sure to do that soon!

AND I just want to give a GIANT THANKS to those of you who has been so supportive of me since I started! You give me the inspiration to constantly invent new varieties! A Big Thank You!

Daffodils - William Wordsworth

I wanted to share with all of you out there one of my favourite poems by William Wordsworth.

Daffodils

I wandered lonely as a cloud

That floats on high o'er vales and hills,

When all at once I saw a crowd,

A host, of golden daffodils;

Beside the lake, beneath the trees,

Fluttering and dancing in the breeze

.Continuous as the stars that shine

And twinkle on the milky way,

They stretched in never-ending line

Along the margin of a bay:

Ten thousand saw I at a glance,

Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced,

but theyOut-did the sparkling leaves in glee;

A poet could not be but gay,

In such a jocund company!

I gazed—and gazed—but little thought

What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie

In vacant or in pensive mood,

They flash upon that inward eye

Which is the bliss of solitude;

And then my heart with pleasure fills,

And dances with the daffodils.

"Flowers" Cupcakes

I started this blog because I would like to share with you the tasty delights my very own culinary garden grows. I hope you will share my passion and delight because all these creations are done with much thought and love and sweat and patience. Today I am sharing with you my "Chrysanthemum" Cinnamon Cupcakes, "Calla Lily" Coconut Cupcakes and "Sunflower" Chocolate Cupcakes. ( from bottom in a clockwise direction)

All my cupcakes are named after flowers coz I love them! I think flowers beautify just by being. And who can forget how it feels to be surprised by a single rose, a bunch of tulips, or even an elaborate arrangement of calla lilies by a friend, a sister, a loved one.

That's exactly how I want my cupcakes and all my other culinary creations to make people feel! Like a gift!

If you love cinnamon, you will absolutely adore my "Chrysanthemum" Cinnamon Cupcakes. It is moist without being oily, every bite oozing with the wonderful flavour of cinnamon. You will also find a slightly crispy coating of cinnamon powder on top of the cupcake finishing the total blend of flavours this yummy cupcake simply is!

For all you coconut lovers out there, my "Calla Lily" Coconut Cupcake has swirls of coconut inside its moist, juicy layers. To top it off, you will find such a pretty layer of green coconut shavings. Isn't it almost too pretty to eat?

And yum yum, my "Sunflower" Chocolate Cake. Do you know why I chose this name? Coz for most people, chocolates bring a smile to their face and a sunflower has such a happy smiley face. Try my chocolate cupcake and you will have a smile on your face too!

It certainly put a smile on my husband's face.

Ok, that's all for now, will talk to you guys soon!
