Food Trip Weekends: Thai Dara and Mamou Too

Friday Dinner: 

I was in the mood for some hot soup after a tiring afternoon of doctor check-ups for both Jacob and I.  I also didn't want to venture far from home since traffic was horrendous.  I love the Christmas season but I detest the heavy traffic that inevitably goes with the Christmas rush. So off we went to get Thai food to soothe my tummy with hot and spicy soup and deliciously tangy beef salad.

The Housewife Chronicles: Rose Birthday Cupcakes

I played with fondant again!  I tried my hand on making some sugar roses for my good friend Marie's birthday cupcakes and it turned out quite cute, albeit a little rustic. haha 

I baked lemon cupcakes for the base and decided on creamy, tangy, yummy, rich cream cheese frosting.  I got the chance to use the 1M Wilton tip my sister-in-law got me from Canada.  I love the rose patterned frosting it pipes out. 

Got over-enthusiastic with the frosting! hihihi

Finished product!
