Pound cake

This is Joe's grandmother's recipe for a classic pound cake. It's one of my very favorites. :)

Christmas Cupcakes

We were Class of the Week, and I thought the kiddies needed a treat. Chocolate cupcakes with vanilla frosting. Yum.

Carrot Cake

My family always bought birthday cakes from a little German bakery in Conyers when I was little. The cakes were delicious, but I especially remember their carrot cake. Whenever my mom would take me with her to pick up a birthday cake, she would buy a slice of carrot cake for me and I would always look forward to it. Carrot cake is still one of my very favorites, and it was time I learned how to make it myself!

I thought a few of these would be the perfect thank you for my dad, who's been such as help as Joe and I move. Black forest cupcakes with cherry filling and sweet, homemade whipped cream. Yum.

Happy Birthday, Grandmama!
