Happy belated Mother's Day to all the mamma's out there. I had a lovely time with my mom yesterday, going for a nice long walk and visiting a tiny art fair in town. While I appreciate all of the things she did growing up, my mom has also done so much for me into my adult life. Through huge life changes and transitions, she's really been there to support me and offer advice. She has always been my role model.

To show the moms in my life some love, I made cupcake bouquets, based on this blog post by 52 Kitchen Adventures (found via Pinterest, of course). I improvised a little, using a flat foam block instead of a ball and stacking them a bit. Overall, I think they came out great and the receiving mommies were pleased. Plus, they weren't too difficult for those of us who operate slightly below Martha's standards.
