There’s a coffee shop by my house has a board up for patrons to write down song lyrics they thought said something else. If this was a contest, I know I would win hands down! Nobody can mess up a song like I can. A few years ago I got a red convertible, and named [...]
I love that I’m 30 years old and my parents still take the time to send me an Easter basket. Today my whole family is in Texas, cooking a big Easter lunch, hiding eggs for the two who are still young enough to hunt them and going to the Lake to try to get some [...]

I’ve always heard that you can tell that a girl’s from Texas if she can drink beer. Most people equate Lone Star Beer with The Lone Star State, but a beer that I’m finding more often outside of Texas is Shiner Bock beer. In college Shiner was elite keg party beer. Usually the Shiner keg [...]

A few times a week, she posts snapshots of what I believe are the coolest lunches in town. Sometimes her posts are a simple list of what was packed and other times, she shares simple, [...]

Spring training baseball games in Arizona, hiking Camelback mountain and patio dining are all hallmarks of Arizona spring. We trade 4 months of 110+ degree days for 6 months of crisp autumn nights and bright spring days. So, when it seemed that my whole Twitter posse was kite flying and bicycle riding yesterday, I had [...]

If you’re from the South, you’re familiar with Velveeta cheese, white break and Miracle Whip sandwiches. I grew up on these sandwiches and it’s amazing that I’m not a million pounds. Come to think of it, my Mamaw would also make her macaroni and cheese with the stuff.
It was one day when I was at [...]

My most favorite store in London is Whittard of Chelsea. It’s a tea and coffee shop that you can get lost in the different bins of white, black, green teas. Teas with flowers, teas with chives, teas with funny names. It’s been about 4 years since I was last in London, but I smile every [...]

Lately I’ve been referring to dear old Dad as the Empire’s Art Department. It’s been so much fun working with him on designing and planning my cupcake accessory business. And I think it’s kinda funny to think about my big Texas born dad surfing cupcake websites to find ideas and inspiration.
And through this process, I’ve [...]

It’s not bad thing when you walk into work and there are 3 different offers for cupcakes.
This is a traditional chocolate cupcake with cream cheese frosting from Holly.
These are banana coconut cupcakes from yours truly.
And let’s name this one Stella. These are from David’s mom. She’s always baking up goodies and sending them into the [...]
