JD 1 Month Birthdey

My little man, JD, turned 1 month on 10/13/12. My parents and sisters came up to help celebrate. Here's a link to some details on the 1 month celebration:

For the most part, we just have food and a small "ceremony" where you essentially in a nutshell wish good luck and prosperity to the infant.

Here is a picture of the food from the event. There is fresh fruit, mini eggrolls, stir-fry noodles, stir-fry vegetables dish, black bean fish, crab rangoon, and 2 different asian desserts.

I made carrot cake cupcakes as well:

Finally, here are 2 pictures of JD at 1 month; one with a oneies on and one as the lil naked boy!

Nutella-Filled Banana Muffins

My hubby wanted to do something nice for the cafeteria staff at his school. This is great b/c it gives me a chance to bake and food! Since I'm on maternity leave, I don't have my normal go-to staff to give extra baked goodies too. I'm sure they miss this as well!

I decided to make nutella-filled banana muffins... so healthy but not really!

Here's a link to the recipe if you're interested in making it too:

Fall Season

Fall officially arrived last week.

When I think of the Fall, I think pumpkins and ginger and holidays and cooler weather and Pumpkin Spice Lattes!

To honor the arrival of Fall, I made pumpkin cupcakes with cinnamon creme cheese frosting! Some were filled with the frosting as well as just topped with it. Everything tastes better with cream cheese frosting!
