boom boom boom...

had heaps of fun last night letting off fireworks and eating.... note to anyone interested in fire safety, do not stand a long firework with lots of power in a glass jar...... for some reason i thought that this would be sufficient in stabilizing the firework...

apparently not! it fell over and starting shooting and banging all over the garden..... we had to run inside, shut the door and watch in horror!

before we got into the explosives we ate good food! paris was mesmerized by the lemon cupcakes

my mum and paris

with the sweet reward... an empty case

After getting hours (well not literally) of entertainment from photographing the dog's desperation for a cupcake things got turned up a notch and the fireworks got underway! It was a shame that it was so wet
:( while we let them off the cheap neighbours opened their curtain slightly (as though they thought they were being secretive) and watched on.... buy your kids some fireworks misers!  I made a point of not buying the fireworks from the warehouse this year and it paid off.. they were pretty impressive AND loud

the results!

ALSO.... I am officially booked in for the Alexandra markets on Sunday the 22nd of November to sell my cupcakes! So I am just planning the assortment and numbers I am going to make.. its a bit tricky as I have no idea as to what sort of numbers they get through there but was thinking of trying to make 100-150 cupcakes!

What a mission! But it will be fun and I have enlisted Todd as my assistant... im sure he's wrapped :D
