I wanted cupcakes but didn’t have eggs or milk, so I turned to the internet and found a Vegan recipe (don’t judge). I was extremely skeptical and really didn’t know what to expect.

Finish It Friday! (More like Frantic Friday–lol!)
All week I have prepared for Friday at 2pm (my daughter’s class party) – I baked 5 dozen Christmas Trees (Sugar Cookies) and made 4 cups of green frosting.
