When we last left off, I had just finished making dinner for Josh and I. While I had enjoyed making dinner, I knew that if it had ended up being a bust, we would still have a divine dessert to look forward to. Seriously, making dessert was a piece of cake.

Thursday through tonight has been a celebration of my birthday. It was supposed to end last night with Stuffed Shells and family time with Mum, Dad, and my 2 sisters, but things got crazy: I had work, dad worked, and my sisters weren’t really home.

Pancake Cupcakes with Maple Buttercream

While on Tumblr a few days ago perusing the “food” tag, I came across the pic (which caught my eye) and then continued to scroll down and to my delight found this awesome, simple, recipe. Needless to say, I know what I’m cooking next.

Yesterday afternoon, while the sun was still shining and even though the air was crisp with a slight chill, Josh and I took a mini trip to Evergreen Walk (a string of outdoor shops) to satiate my hunger for the divine cupcakes only found at Ganache (because I haven’t found any place that makes them better).

Happy Thursday, Gang!

I hope so far, you guys have had a good week food wise. Feel free to email me your recipes at my email TheMakingofAChef@Gmail.com . Though, I did tweet and say that I wouldn’t talk about what happened Monday when I decided to try my hand at a Thai inspired recipe, I have decided to discuss it briefly, however the main focus will be on my adventure down to Moe’s Southwest Bar and Grill followed by a trip to a Cupcake & Confections shop (which, you have no idea how thrilled I was to come across one of those, for I had no idea they actually existed).
