And now, the final batch of cupcakes, for Mike's Dia de los Muertos party tonight. (The first ones are here.) Some of these were a ton of fun to make -- but by the end of about 40 I was pretty over the whole thing!
And then, the solos. These are mostly fondant-covered marshmallows.
And my personal favorites, who seem like they should be aliens out of "Sesame Street," are these guys:
Phew! I am officially done with sugar.
Until at least tonight.
Until at least tonight.
Well, the skull that scared Ciara is done. Or about 95 percent so. Here she is hanging up and drying, but I had to reinforce the head and am reinforcing the bottom where all the candy will sit when it's hanging up, full. Mike bought half-price candy today and now it's all stuffed up and drying, ready for Saturday.
Ciara is ignoring it for now. She has a rawhide chew.
Also: The mag is going national tomorrow! Well, it's been national but now we'll have day-and-date on this side of the Mississippi. Which is a big deal.
I'm hoping to blog and do a little snarking, a little illumination, a little funny on the new development (now that I'll be able to see it the day it comes out) every day, over here at Past Deadline. Come on over and check us out, first thing, every morning!
What I really need now is a good title for the column.
Happy post-Halloween/All Saints Day/Dia de los Muertos!
