Calling All Princesses: A Documentary


Good evening, folks! This is Sidney, Gretchen's youngest sister and I am visiting the Kelly's for a few days in the bustling metropolis of Woodbury, Minnesota. I've never been here during Winter before and I'll probably never be back in Winter ever again. While the snow is very pretty, zero degrees Farenheit makes me cranky. Also, it makes my hair frizzy.

Today we may or may not have experienced a minor bout of cabin fever:

So, we decided to engage in one of our favorite indoor past times - baking! Callie, the third 'Field' sister, introduced us to this fantastic baking blog called Baked Perfection and we decided to tap into the deliciousness that is the Sugar Cookie Cupcake. We cannot recommend these enough... with or without the princess theme.

The final product. But first, let's enjoy the process...
We had to add food coloring to the batter in order to make it princess pink, naturally.
Four different princess toppers to choose from!
Maggie was helping mom make the frosting and added a cup of powdered sugar while the mixer was mixing. Doh!
Gretchen busted out the frosting tips for the ultimate frosting experience.
The girls each got to decorate their own cupcake.
This is Maggie's.
And this is Maya's.


Aren't they beauuuuuutiful?!
As is she.
As is she.
As is Bellsy.
