200 Posts?! How About Free Cookies?

Seriously? How can I possibly have made 200 posts in less than a year? Who knew I had so much to say?! (Anyone who knows me would not be surprised.)

So, I wondered, just what, exactly, have I posted about... well...

51 of those posts contain a Recipe (or two)

29 of those posts are about Cake Pops.
(The most popular of which are these Baby Boy Shower Cake Pops.)

15 of those posts are about Cupcakes.

125! of those posts contain some reference to Icing.

21 of those posts talk about or use Icing Bag Bullets.

95 of those posts refer to sugar. (Who's surprised??)

Only 80 refer to butter! (Not bad.)

Thank you - GIVEAWAY!

  8. YAY 200 POSTS! I always share your blog for good recipes and Gio's baptism party featured your recipes: banana split cupcakes and caramel apple cake, both VERY popular. Still, the recipe I use most is royal icing. Homemade (and delicious) frosting makes any dessert taste like you spent all week preparing it!
