I have admitted many times that I cannot make pretty cakes and cupcakes. Cake decorating is not something I’m good at (understatement of the year!).
Liz, from Hoosier Homemade is fantastic at cupcake decorating. And she’s written an eBook that lets all of us in on the secret to making cutie patootie sweet treats. Even decorating challenged people like me!
Her eBook, Cupcakes! 12 Months of Happiness has ideas for every month of the year. You’ll be set for birthday parties, holidays and everything in between. She even gives ideas for making the box cake mix taste homemade, where to buy cake decorating supplies and more.
I’m giving away 1 copy of Cupcakes! to a lucky winner. Just leave a comment telling me what your next cupcake baking occasion is.
There’s also a discount code you can use. You can get $2 off the regular price, making Cupcakes! just $2.99. Use the code EATATHOME to get the discount. If you buy and then you win the giveaway (lucky dog!), Liz will refund your money.
Avocado Links

Chipotle Bean Burritos from Debbi Does Dinner looks like a great way to punch up a bean recipe.
Vegan Chocolate Avocado cake sounds interesting and so does the Blackberry Frosting that Vanderbilt Wife put on it.
Chorizo Empanadas with Avocado Cream from The Sweets Life look wonderful.
Learn how to dice an avocado from The Cutting Back Kitchen.
Crystal & Co. rocks her slow cooker again with this recipe for Tex Mex Shredded Roast Wraps.
