Merry Christmas! Whipped up some easy scones with just a few ingredients: 2 C flour, 2 ½ t baking powder, ½ t salt, and ¾ C milk. Combine with pastry blender, , pat into a disk, cut before baking, lightly coat with milk. 400 degrees for 10-15 mins until golden brown. Once out, glaze with milk and powdered sugar icing with fresh orange zest! #baking #merrychristmas #scones

Don’t let that lil grin fool you, this one is in monster mode this am. 👶🏼👶🏼👶🏼 We are signing off for the next few days but I’ve got a big post up of some of my favorite posts from the past on whatiwore.tumblr.com 🎁🎄🎅🏽❤️ Merry Christmas!

Pink on pink in today’s new outfit post!! I’ve got a sleeping baby in my arms, a belly full of cronut, looking at a beautiful bouquet and answering so many thoughtful messages. 33 is looking good!! 💕🎉💖

A Christmas croquembouche, or “crunch for the mouth” 🎅🏽❤️🎅🏽 I won’t lie, this was my greatest baking challenge to date. If you thought it looked easy on The Great British bake Off, I assure you, it was not (and I used a cone form underneath as a base!!). Two batches of choux, two batches of creme patissierre and three batches of caramel (👈🏻 the worst!!) and this is what I’ve got. A+ for effort, B for looks. Hoping a solid A on taste? We’ll see!! 🍰🎄🎁

Happy weekend!

We went to a Sound of Music singalong at the @iucinema this weekend as a family. New post on whatiwore.tumblr.com with outfit photos. 🎶🎄🎁🎅🏽👶🏼

I made homemade cupcakes from scratch for the first time ever! Easy way to make it Christmasy? Line your try with wrapping paper! These are chocolate cakes with a cream cheese chocolate icing. Secretly filled with peppermint bark (and dusted with it on top too). Will post recipe links in comments. 🎅🏽🎄🎁💃🏻 #starbaker #baking #cupcakes
