Cupcake Masters

Meet Jenni, one of my favoritest people ever :) She was one of my church youth leaders growing up and I've always connected with her because she is so sweet and completely hilarious! Because my mother & I are noobs when it comes to baking, we asked if Jenni would come and teach us the ways of her baking prowess.
{Jenni even brought over Costco diet cokes to sip on while we learned how to become cupcake masters...she knows the way to our hearts!}
Jenni used to work in a bakery during college and then also taught a baking class at Michaels, so you could definitely say that she is the authority when it comes to this kind of stuff. We wanted to learn how to make Crisco decorating frosting and how to put it beautifully onto a cupcake. Only Funfetti of course :) We learned different frosting techniques, designs, and tricks when it comes to mixing up the frosting. Which is displayed on my darling new cupcake tree found at Home Goods for 10 bucks! 
{One of my favorite places to shop for home decor and knick knacks!}
We baked, swirled, decorated, sprinkled, and frosted to our hearts content! I love learning new talents and skills, it makes me feel so spry and young ;) Thanks Jenni for an awesome baking day!
What is something new you have learned as of late?

Sprinkles

I swear I'm still alive & kickin'!
Our weekend Cali trip turned into a few days more....then it became a week...and we finally came back a week and a half later. The weather was just too dang good to leave!
I actually got a tan line. A TAN LINE PEOPLE.
For some reason the sun doesn't work in Utah, that's why everyone is so dang white here.
When I saw that I had a tan line after only a couple days in Cali, I almost wanted to cry!!
I know I know I'm a dorkus, it never really was a secret :)

If any of you follow me on instagram {@breezy_days} then you know I made a "Cali To-Do List", to make sure that we hit the main points of our vacay.
One of the things to check off on the "Cali To-Do List" was to hit up Sprinkles Cupcakes.
If you haven't heard of this place, you are surely missing out.
They have the most beautiful, delicious, and probably most expensive cupcakes ever.
Like, 40 bucks a dozen expensive. YIKES!
I knew that Ryan needed the Sprinkles experience, so we went down to Newport on a nice sunny day, and purchased the ridiculously 'spensive cupcakes. And proceeded to totally narf them down.
Hey. It's being adventurous and trying new things!
{Red Velvet, Smores, Dark Chocolate Banana, Brown Sugar, Lemon, Dark Chocolate Raspberry, and Dark Chocolate cupcake with Cream Cheese frosting. This was SO worth it.}
{Me being REAL excited to narf on more sugary cupcakes!}

More California pics to come! 
And I just wanna say hi to all you new followers, I'm happy to have you here :)
