CUPCAKES!!!  Who doesn't love them?  And frosting?  Swoon, I am definitely a frosting kind of gal, I love it, and I love lots of it.  Yes, you will find me scraping the bowl after the frosting is made and eating up every last bit.  I will share the spatula with Little Love and my husband though, sharing with those you love is a must.

I was so excited when Annabelle from California Country Gal contacted me about her new cookbook, SWEET SECRETS Real Food Cupcakes!  I couldn't wait to look through it and see all of the recipes.  It's filled with so many creative cupcake and frosting recipes.  Not to mention the photos of the cupcakes ... mouth-watering, lip-smaking, makes you wish you had a cupcake in hand.
