CUPCAKE MAKING DAY

Up to get chores done and then grab a cup of coffee and breakfast bar once again as we head out the door for our Thursday errands and deliveries.
Our first stop today was a couple egg deliveries and the dump / recycle center was second on our list.
After that we stopped at the Dollar General we usually go to because we are usually the only customers in there. I needed a couple pretty plates to hold some extra cupcakes for the wedding I am helping with and we picked up several other things we needed.
Our last stop was the last egg delivery of this week and then home to have lunch.
After lunch d-in-love came up and we started icing the 125 cupcakes for the wedding favors.
I think they turned out pretty with the pretty little flowers we had already made and kept in the freezer.

This went quicker than I had expected and although it still took us all afternoon I figured it would take today and tomorrow afternoons. We finished the 100 and put them in the boxes and had 4 left over for the extra 25 she added this morning.
Whew !!! Thanks d-in-love for all the help so we could get them done today.
It rained this afternoon while we worked but only about 2/10ths of an inch here while other areas very close to us got really heavy rains in a short time.
Hubbie and I got chores done and I heard loud peeps coming from this mama's brooder box and discovered that the 10 guinea eggs she was sitting on all hatched .
This is the second family this pretty lady has raised this year.
The red hen in the old rabbit cage turned brooder box is still sitting on 5 of her eggs with 1 little chick hatched so far and this is day number 23 for her. At least she has 1 little chick to show for her sitting dedication .
Hubbie and I finished out the evening watching a beautiful sunset and watching more light rain fall.
I spent part of the evening once again this week baking more cupcakes for the extras ordered today and a cake for another friend for a next week birthday.
Thankful for the blessings of this day.
God Bless and Good Night
