		<title>Ducky Baby Cardi</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I knit a little sweater for the baby girl my friends Nicole and Joe are expecting in March. Hopefully the sweater provides the incentive they need to pick the lovely name of Lorene for their child.

		<title>Winter Sugar Cookies</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My mom and I decided to go with a wintery theme for the Christmas cookies we made this year. Jersey sure isn&#8217;t getting any other snow right now.
The recipe is from Cookie Craft: From Baking to Luster Dust, Designs and Techniques for Creative Cookie Occasions.
I have an inspiration board for cookie decoration on Pinterest.

		<title>A Holiday Aestlight Shawl</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My mom really loved the Aestlight shawl I knitted awhile ago, so I decided to knit her one for Christmas. This one is made with Malabrigo Sock yarn in Persia.
My mom is very sensitive to wool but I&#8217;ve seen her wearing this quite a few times! It blocked out a lot differently (ie bigger)  than [...]]]></description>

		<title>Marzipan Pears</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I made Marzipan Caramel Pear Cupcakes (via Sweetapolita) for Thanksgiving and to top them off I made these adorable marzipan pears.

Marzipan fruit is much easier to make than it looks. I shaped each pear, then painted them with gold luster dust mixed with cheap vodka. After the were dried I used a clove as the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Christmas Hats</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My go to gift for my brother-in-laws are hats. That&#8217;s right! My sister got married in October and now I have 2 brothers-in-law.
First up is Kyle&#8217;s hat. I used the pattern Winter&#8217;s Coming and the light green is Knit Picks Cadena. The dark green is some scrap yarn.

		<title>Cupcake Transportation System</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you, like me, enjoying bringing a fresh baked cupcake into work for an afternoon snack then you might like this post.
I have a Tupperware cupcake holder that will transport 18 cupcakes but it&#8217;s a bit overboard for one. The best way I&#8217;ve found is to take a small round container with a lid. The [...]]]></description>

		<title>Double Brown Cupcakes for National Cupcake Day</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of my friends told me that today was National Cupcake Day. I figured this was as good an excuse as any to bake some cupcakes! I went hunting for a recipe that I could make with what I had in the house. I looked through my numerous cupcake cookbooks but nothing struck my fancy, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been 9 months since I last posted on Craftcake. That&#8217;s seriously messed up. I&#8217;ve been baking and crafting but not posting. So I&#8217;m going to try to catch you up before 2012 gets started.
First off is this cake I baked from my grandma&#8217;s 87th birthday. It&#8217;s a vanilla layer cake with the most divine [...]]]></description>

		<title>St Patrick&#8217;s Day Treats</title>

The cupcakes are green velvet and are as easy to make as substituting half of the red food coloring in a red velvet recipe for green food coloring. In my case I used 1 oz of [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Visit to Sweet Avenue Bake Shop</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last year I bought a Groupon for Sweet Avenue Bake Shop in Rutherford. It was $10 for a $20 voucher.  While I had good intentions of going right when I got it,  I soon realized my voucher was expiring in 2 weeks. So off I went on Saturday.
The bakery is a little hard [...]]]></description>
