And, that link may be your best way to find them. We visited several different grocery stores looking for them, found them on maybe the 5th or 6th. Were they worth the hunt? OH YES. And now I'm trying to think of other ways I could use them. In pancakes? Yes. In Snickerdoodles? Why not?! And now that I know where to find them, I'm set!
Thing 2--Remember these sweet little babyangels from my Wine Cake post?
I have, for a while now, been occasionally checking ebay and Etsy to see if anyone was selling a set, and SUCCESS! A complete set, in perfect condition, still in their original box.
I think they're a little smaller in scale than The Pie Queen's, and will therefore require skinnier candles, but still! Aren't they the cutest things you ever saw?!
I can't wait for an opportunity to use them.
Thing 3--Sometimes I am a cupcake whore. Somebody gave me one of these at work yesterday:
(from Mrs. Backer's Bakery in Salt Lake City) and it made my day in ways you can't even imagine. They're not the best cupcakes on the planet. But they're certainly not the worst. And it was JUST what I needed. So my message to you is this: if you have a cupcake to spare, give it to someone who looks like they need a cupcake, you have no idea how happy you might make them.
Who am I kidding? Is there any such things as a SPARE cupcake? No. Except in my office, apparently. Weird.
Next up: I had a magical summer doing this. The only problem is that nightly rehearsals leave little time for summer evening campfires or...more specifically...s'mores. So. Before Labor Day comes and shuts the door on summer, I'm making a s'mor-ish dessert. Nothing complicated or fancy. But it looks so yummy to me, I have to try it.

I think some of those cinnamon-chocolate chips should find their way to my house. I would like to try them sprinkled on top of a nice fallish apple crisp. And may I say I love your pie blog. Even if it isn't always about pie.
