Happy Easter!!

Ok first things first, if you have never played the game Quelf then I want you to get in your car right now,........go on get in your car, drive to the nearest store,........are you driving yet, and Buy this game!!! It is So Much FUN!!! Especially if you are with your family and you're not afraid to act a little stupid. Ok so by now you should be back home with the game so now you need to play it........Seriously play it now, it's ok I can wait till your done.


So you're done playing, good wasn't it Amazing!! Yeah I knew it would be. Alright so here's what happened on Easter in the Jacobson household!! We went to General Conference then went back to my parents for a delicious dinner and a fun Easter Egg hunt. I was the only one missing an egg by the end so if one is found it's mine!! After the egg hunt and after we went through all our loot, some of us played Quelf, the best game ever, here are some of the great things we had to do.

I had to wear a belt, Laura's belt, on my head for most of the game!!!

Ty had to make a mask and wear it, lol it was pretty scary!!

Ty also had to bellydance hahaha :) He was pretty good at it!! heehee

Oh how cute!! Matt and Brandon had to dance like they were at prom. Precious :)

So lately I've been attempting to make different cupcakes. I'm going to try and document what I do so here it goes. I started out with a simple chocolate fudge cake mix and added some raspberry extract. I then filled them with a cream filling, which after much experimenting with it, I have found the perfect filling!!! They tasted amazing!!

Before........

After!!! I took some to work and they asked me if I bought them. I said no I made them, they told me that they taste better than the ones at Cocoa Bean!! That kinda made my day :)

These are the ones I made for my family. I have to admit that the first batch, which I tried with a new recipe, Did Not turn out good at all!!! lol but I guess that's just part of the process. Things will fail. I used a different recipe and went from there. They turned out pretty good :)

I also made chocolate covered marshmallow easter eggs. This was my first time making these and they turned out good, just a couple set backs like the chocolate getting to hot after a while and it was melting my eggs. lol but all in all they turned out great for a first attempt. This week my roommate want me to help her make a cake for her friend using fondant. I'm way excited, I've always wanted to play with fondant. So I'll let you know how that one turns out.
