Etsy moves to Dumbo...plus schwag from Moontree... →
I’m not particularly familiar with Moontree Letterpress but I have a feeling I’m going to become so. They work in the same building as Etsy AND MY HUSBAND (who does not work for Etsy, sadly, but still has an awesome job), and JUST LOOK AT THOSE GORGEOUS RECIPE CARDS
So here’s what’s going on: Etsy moved to Dumbo recently and their first weekly Craft Night in the new space...
Bakerella: Mini Maple Pancake Muffins →
These are the cutest gosh-darned baked goods ever. Don’t feel like flipping pancakes? Make them into muffins instead! Cute, diminutive, chocolatey and mapley muffins.
(I’m not sure what my obsession with adorable baked goods is. But here, have some more! Pancake Meow charms! I have a pancake necklace and a cinnamon bun necklace myself.)

Yum (a Mac recipe organizer) →
I am officially obsessed with Yum. I’ve been on a baking spree lately (in fact, why don’t you check out my food blog? Hell yeah, self-promotion!) and this has been a positively irreplaceable program for me. You can copy the ingredients from a recipe to your clipboard and click “Paste ingredients” and it will figure it all out for you. Then you can tell it you want fewer...
New design
I changed my tumblr theme to something a little less bland-looking, but it’s not very tumbleweed-ey anymore. Oh well! Now it has COLOR! Glorious, randomized color.

Cowboys Blue Velvet Cupcakes →
I’m not a huge Cowboys fan — they’re just okay, as far as I’m concerned. I am, however, a huge Ravens fan, and a huge cupcake fan, and if the Ravens had an easier design to recreate in icing, I would so make purple velvet versions of this cupcake. Unfortunately, decorating tiny baked goods with bird heads is a little too complicated for me.
(PS: Matt Stover is still hot,...
