Well, I went on a bit of a cookie cutter and baking supply binge in Minnesota this past weekend and I am so excited for a few up-and-coming projects!! First, I went to Lunds grocery store where I bought two sugars: cardamom sugar and hibiscus sugar. These are made by Golden Fig Epicurean in Minnesota and I can't find them anywhere else. I already have a lavender sugar and lemon rose sugar. All are great for topping sugar cookies.
Then I took a trip to Sweet Celebrations which is formerly known as Maid of Scandinavia, in Edina, MN. There I bought:
- edible ivory pearls
- non pareils for a butterfly cupcake project
- mini tart pans
- a mitten cookie cutter
- two Christmas ornament cookie cutters
- a birdhouse cookie cutter
- a Christmas light bulb cookie cutter
- and a large wedding cake cookie cutter
I cannot wait to bake these cookies! And finally, to top off the splurge, I saw Little House on the Prairie the Musical and bought the Little House Cookbook. It is an old cookbook that I once checked out from the library but I am going to make a lot of the recipes in it including butter, pancakes, ginger water, candy and more. Don't worry, they will make the blog.Now I just need some days off to bake!

It was so good to see you last weekend, I really miss having you in MN. I forgot to tell you about a cupcake blog you might like. Sadly, it has shut down, but you can still access all the recipes. Enjoy!
