Bits of this and that

One of my favorite birthday gifts this year was an iphone my husband gave me (although it's hard to decide as this year he truly payed attention to my "hints" and wishlist! hehehe). I'm in love with the thing. It's so cool to be able to check out my facebook or twitter everywhere, but mostly, I love the cool photo aps!

As I haven't made many blog updates lately, I though I'd make a resume, with images, of what I've been up to in the last month.

Around the house

Places and spaces

Outside

Lots of beer and lots of sweets

Cream cheese peanut butter frosting!!!

You'll need:

Soften cream cheese, add butter and peanut butter, beat. Stif sugar and beat until smooth.

Amelia was the first one to try them and love them.

She was even trying to say "cupcake".

This is one of my favorite cupcake recipes. I'm not a fan of peanut butter, but believe me, this is delicious! enjoy!
