to my husband! I'm about a week and a half behind on this post so pretend it's April 26 and we're celebrating Marc's birthday! It was a Friday so we both went about our normal routine. We both went to work but Marc came home mid-afternoon, which is completely NOT normal in his new job, we hardly see him at all. I get off of work at noon on Fridays now, got to love summer hours so I got to work on making him some awesome cupcakes. Normally, I would make him some sort of chocolate/peanut butter cupcake but since we haven't tested peanut butter on Jacob yet (I'm terrified of an allergic reaction) I went to my faithful Pinterest for some ideas on something decadently delicious but also nut free because Jacob doesn't like to pass up a cupcake. I found these:
Those are Samoas cupcakes, Samoas just happen to be Marc's favorite Girl Scout cookie so I decided to give them a try. Homemade cupcakes, homemade caramel, homemade caramel butter cream, homemade chocolate ganache, and toasted coconut, it was pure decadence and SO delicious. Of course we had pizza for dinner followed by these deliciousness. Marc had two and told me that they were the best cupcakes that I've ever made and if I sold them in a store that he would pay $4 for one, which from Marc is a HUGE compliment! I gave Jacob half of one and turned around for 2 seconds when I turned back around it was gone except for a little handful of cake in his little fist. Needless to say, these will be a repeat for us!
All and all I think Marc had a good birthday!
