Casseroles go in an oven, so that’s almost baking… right!? JK. In my move to spend more time in the kitchen and enjoying foods, I came up with a pretty delicious vegan recipe for Manicotti. I used my mom’s pasta sauce and doctored it with a little smoked paprika. Join me on bakespace to share this and other recipes!

I know, the Gimme Dem Cupcakes blog has been quiet, but you understand. ”Momma’s Always on Stage.” Someone asked me what I was proud of in 2011, and I’m definitely proud of my baking. Thank you all for your support.
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
A New York City subway train holds 1,200 people. This blog was viewed about 4,000 times in 2011. If it were a NYC subway train, it would take about 3 trips to carry that many people.
Other things to celebrate from 2011:
-healthy growth and love of my family
-another wonderful year with my man
-another wonderful year with the Literacy Council, promotion to bartender at Artie’s and most of all, my new part-time baker position at Sticky Fingers!
-Growing and gaining new friendships
-Dad and my sister maintaining near full-time employment!
-surviving my trip across country with my bestie Becky
-winning 2nd place Amatuer Division at the Capital Area Cake Show
-Gimme Dem Cupcakes first wedding order
-taking the goods to market, especially collaborating with Jill for the V Picnic Club at the Mount Pleasant Farmer’s market
Thank you all for an exceptional year. I wish you all a blessed 2012.
