WELCOME

Welcome to my blog. I am hoping to do something fun with this blog. I absolutely love the movie Julie and Julia. I am pretty sure most foodies have seen that movie.
For those who haven't seen it, Julie had 365 days to make EVERY recipe in Julia Childs cookbook and blog about it.
So i decided to do a spin off of that and make all 90 recipes in a cupcake tin i got for $3.88 from walmart on black friday. I love to bake. It is my passion. Yet i have OCD and i am unable to work and it holds me back from my dream. (more about that in another post)
I am a stay at home mom to my beautiful almost 2 year old daughter Giada. I figured this would be a fun thing to do in my home since i wont have anyone watching me wash my hands 10 times because i cracked an egg, (silly i know but I HAVE TOO) and i will also be able to show what i am capable of and show my work.
Some recipes are from scratch and some are "semi homemade" using a box mix and decorating. I am in the process of organizing the recipes into the months i want to do them and do certain themes or try to stick with for example all "lemon" recipes in a certain month. I am getting a late start but i am going to start my first recipe today!

I hope you all enjoy following my blog and my progress and thoughts on each cupcake. I would also love if you have a special recipe you would like me to make and post (and give you credit for) as a chalenge i would love to do so!
