maternity leave

Alright folks, I'm officially going on maternity leave from this blog. I've been slacking on the cupcake blogging (and baking) for most of my pregnancy, but as of now I am officially done, until, you know, I feel up to it again, which will likely be in 2008. We shall see.

I was happy to discover this morning that the one true Domestic Goddess, Nigella Lawson, is coming out with a new cookbook of quick recipes called Nigella Express one month after my due date. Thank you Nigella. If I do any cooking at all in the coming months, the recipes are sure to be quick and easy ones, so they may as well be tasty, and you know, accompanied by fabulous photos (as all Nigella recipes are). I've already placed a copy on hold at the library. Yay!

Maybe next year around this time I'll be crafting up a cupcake costume like the one seen above, but for now I'll leave you with the darling photo (she's so cute!) and article with instructions from Wondertime Magazine.

Happy Halloween, and all the holidays that follow until I return.
And, of course, happy cupcaking! xoxo
