Last night I had my two grandchildren over for a slumber party while their parents went out to a play.  Milena and Dorian love to decorate cupcakes and their faces fell when I didn’t bake any.  I did make a batch of chocolate chip cupcakes for breakfast.  They knew exactly what to do and were all of the sprinkles and piping bags were.  In no time at all my kitchen was knee deep in sugar and they were having a ball.  Milena found my gum paste butterflies that I had dried out for another project.  I showed her how to use the gel food coloring and clear vanilla extract to paint the butterflies.  She did great for her first time painting butterflies.  Dorian was all about just plain white icing and tons of sprinkles on top.  We all had a great time and I’m ready to go back to bed.  I’ll tackle the kitchen later.
