This sounds so good, I'm going to make it when the temp drops below 80! I love the cupcake pic- I can tell you;re a talented photographer so I can't wait to see more pics! You and I are kindred spirits... I have bindes with magazine recipes slid into plastic sheet protectors..I love thumbing through them for inspiration. They go back to '93... eeek! :0
