How to Diet on Marshmallows and Cupcakes

Don't eat them.

...that's all I got.

Like I mentioned before, it's a hard time of the year to diet. If you make things you don't like to eat, then you should be fine. Hence the marshmallows and cupcakes.

If you've never made your own marshmallows before, I suggest you give it a go. It seems like a lot of work, but it goes pretty quickly and the results are definitely worth it! Credit goes to Jason for this batch though. He did a great job-stamped with Ephraim's seal of approval!

I had plans of making some pumpkin sugar cookies today but came across a recipe for apple butter cupcakes instead. Jason loves apple butter so I figured I'd try those out instead. He said, "Very good is an understatement!" or something like that. I have a terrible memory.

I'd also like to share a quilt my mom made for Aeris. I think its the most perfect baby quilt. There are all of these little treasures shes sewed on the quilt top for Aeris to find as she has tummy time and learns to crawl and explore. I think she already likes it as much as I do.
