Red Velvet cupcakes in the new kitchen!

We’ve officially moved into the new house! I’ve even begun to cook and bake again. These red velvet cupcakes are among the handful of items I’ve made in the last few days.

These cupcakes are bland and don’t really taste like anything. Oh well…I’ll try them again sometime. More importantly, they were baked in an oven that works properly. That makes me immensely happy. Almost as happy as not having to go to the laundromat anymore.

I’ll get back to posting pictures and blogging soon. We didn’t get internet until two days ago and I’m still catching up on the all the things I’d missed.

The house is nearly unpacked…I only have a couple of boxes left. The last big thing to do is to hang all of our art on the walls. That might have to wait a week or so. Other than that, the house looks pretty good already…and we only moved on Saturday!

That’s all for now…just wanted to check in and let everyone know that I’m alive and doing very well!

  1. That cupcake looks delicious and congrats on the move! It really starts to feel like home once you start baking huh?

  2. Jealous of a new, 100% working oven. Someday soon I’ll join you.

  3. Moving is so tiring, isn’t it? But being in the new house is worth it all. :)

    I made those wonderful dark chocolate oatmeal cookies of yours… They were a hit here! Would you mind if I posted them on my blog, giving you credit for the recipe?

  4. Being in the new house and almost totally unpacked is sooooo worth it.

    Yes, you may post the recipe on your blog as long as you link back to my recipe (which, of course, links back to the source before I doctored them up a little).

    Thanks!!

  5. I think this cupcake looks delicious! But more importantly, nice new counter tops!
