Sprinkles Cupcakes

I must confess that I have never had a Sprinkles Cupcake but with locations in Georgetown and New York it's just a matter of time before I am peeling back a liner.

The Sprinkles in Beverly Hills is home to the very first cupcake ATM.



Have you had a Sprinkles cupcake? How was it?

Easter Outing

Easter morning we headed to the BMA for brunch.

It was a gorgeous day.

 I was very happy with my Crab Benedict.

 After the meal we took a walk around the sculpture garden.

The Easter bunny was good to JCW's nephew.

Friday Favorites

I can't believe it's already Easter weekend...I am hoping the Easter bunny brings me some peanut butter eggs.

Take a trip to the Master's with photographer Charlotte Elizabeth...I am proud to have gone to school with someone so talented.

It's been hard to not buy any new monogrammed goodies...I am trying to hold out until I am officially Mrs. JCW.

MBW's new addition arrived...she's going to be so adorable in her Lilly.

Happy Easter! xx

Dog Mountain

Dog Mountain in St. Johnsbury, Vermont is set on 150 acres and is home to The Dog Chapel. The late artist Stephen Huneck founded The Dog Chapel in 2000. He wanted Dog Mountain to be a place where you could celebrate the faith, trust and friendship that dogs bring to the world.

There is a no leash law on Dog Mountain so all the visitors are free to play as they please.

The Dog Chapel has a remembrance wall where people can leave photos, notes and cards honoring their pets.

Last month my Aunt's dog Sam passed away and my mom ordered her The Dog Chapel. I emailed her Sally Goes to Heaven which Stephen Huneck wrote after losing his beloved dog Sally.

Sam, I hope heaven is filled with lots of Gator rides and newspapers to retrieve.

For those of you who have ever loved or lost a dog, I am sure you can understand that Dog Mountain is a truly special place. If you feel inclined to help Dog Mountain continue to operate you can make a donation on the website.
