"A grown up is a child with layers on."






I don't think I'll ever grow up. Not properly anyway. So to bring out my inner 5 year old, I went a bit crazy (as per) and spent a significant amount of time baking Cartoon Network Cupcakes. Let's face it, who didn't love a bit of Johnny Bravo and Dexter's Lab back in the day? By request, these were Rainbow Cupcakes (they're turning into my specialty) along with cream cheese frosting and lots of handmade sugar paste CN characters.

I hope these edible delights inspire you to bring out your inner five year old. I will now proceed to getting out the finger paint and going crazy on a large piece of plain paper. Will let you know how goes...

I make it a point to nurture my inner child too! There's nothing wrong with being young at heart, no matter how old you- or I, rather, am! And I LOVE cream cheese frosting! YUM! -Jessica
