Where Have I Been?

So where have I been you ask? Well, Bumblebee MIL turned 50 on 08/08/08 and Bumblebee FIL threw her a huge bash. I was in charge of cupcakes so I made Bakerella's miniature cupcakes. Sorry there isn't better light in this picture. They were a huge hit but the 200 cupcakes took me the ENTIRE week to finish. It was definitely a labor or love. It took Mr. Bumblebee's and my relationship to a whole new level. Our blood, sweat, tears, and marriage went into these cupcakes (metaphorically of course). We never went to be before 2am this past week. My legs still ache from standing all night. So what do you get the women who has everything she needs or wants for her 50th birthday. You overwhelm yourself by taking on 200 cupcakes and making a quilt for her (oh and p.s. this is my first quilt). I didn't get it done in time for her big bash, I'm having the date and message embroidered on it for me so until that finishes up, I can't put the borders on it. But damn, not bad if I do say so myself for my first quilt.

So overall it was an intense week. More details on the party and other fun happenings coming soon. Maybe even tonight if I can keep my eyes open.
