Day #3: cupcakes

So today our Moroccan neighbours are having a baby party for their little baby boy Ihab, born November 27th. Family & friends are coming and I've been helping her out with diner & sweets this morning. She asked me to make cupcakes for her and so I did! :)Day#3-2 When a baby is born here in the netherlands (aka Holland, LOL) visitors get ' beschuit met muisjes'  (biscuits with little mouse -Wikipedia). Blue 'muisjes' when it's a boy and pink when it's a girl. I decorated these cupcakes with chocolate , used white chocolate & colored it with a blue icing color I got in the USA last summer (love that stuff!) Then I dipped them in the 'muisjes'  Aren't these cute? :) Well gotta go take a shower and get back to my neighbour to help her out and put on my Moroccan party dress!

This photo is awesome, and again, you've given such great journaling with it. I'm very impressed.

I love the way you set up the photo, and I love that you took the time to make such cute sweets for your neighbor.

Bless you!
