   Nothing is Picture Perfect

   On today's episode, I'll be diving deep into my relationship with social media. It is an amazing and captivating tool but not always in an amazing way. It has the power to shape how we view ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. Let's talk about it! *Special Message* In a world filled with sights and sounds, there exists a subtle yet captivating realm of sensory delight—the power of fragrance. From the alluring scent of blooming flowers to the comforting embrace of freshly baked goods, fragrances possess a remarkable ability to transport us, evoke memories, and enhance our overall well-being. In this blog post, we will explore the hidden wonders of fragrance and uncover the profound impact it has on our lives.

   The Other Side of Motherhood

   On this week's Candles, Cupcake, & Conversation episode, we'll discuss the other side of motherhood. The side of motherhood that is not often talked about. As mothers, there are a lot of emotions that we experience on a daily basis. Some we may or may not be able to pinpoint. Let's start having the conversation. *Oreo Cupcakes* prep time:10 MINS cook time:15 MINS additional time:1 HR total time:1 HR 25 MINS Ingredients COOKIES AND CREAM CUPCAKES 1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature, 1/2 cup ¾ cup granulated sugar 2 large egg whites ¾ cup sour cream ¼ cup milk, I used skim 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 ¼ cup all purpose flour 1 tsp baking powder ¼ tsp salt ¾ cup crushed oreos COOKIES AND CREAM FROSTING 2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature, 1 cup 1 tsp vanilla extract 2 cups powdered sugar 1 cup finely blended oreos, finely blended otherwise the oreo chunks will get stuck in your piping tip EQUIPMENT KitchenAid 9-Speed Mixer (https://amzn.to/2U3rkyp) Wilton Tip 2D (https://amzn.to/2Oaapbi) Instructions CUPCAKES Preheat the oven to 400º F. Line a muffin pan with muffin liners. In a mixing bowl combine the butter and sugar, beat using an electric mixer, 1-2 minutes until fluffy. Add in the egg whites, sour cream, milk, and vanilla extract, beating lightly with the electric mixer. In a separate mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients a few spoonfuls at a time, mixing by hand with a spatula. Add in the crushed oreos. Mix by hand until just incorporated. Fill the muffin liners 1/2-3/4 full. Bake for 5 minutes at 400º F. Keeping the cupcakes in the oven, turn the heat down to 350ºF and bake for 8-9 minutes, or until a few moist crumbs remain on a toothpick when inserted into the center. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before adding the frosting. COOKIES AND CREAM FROSTING In a mixing bowl, combine the butter and vanilla extract, beat using an electric mixer until fluffy. Begin to add the powdered sugar, about 1 cup at a time, mixing by hand. Continue adding powdered sugar until the frosting no longer looks wet and tastes good to you. Add in the finely blended oreos (I like to call it "oreo flour"). Then I use my electric mixer one last time to make sure the powdered sugar is really incorporated and ready to go. If the frosting becomes too thick, add a dash of milk or heavy cream.
