Feliz Cinco de Mayo!

Aye Aye Aye!! Our neighborhood is probably going nuts today. It's a good thing we pulled up all of our dead weeds in the backyard because the fireworks that will likely be blazing tonight would pose a fire hazard. Not so fun. What is definitely more fun than fireworks on cinco de mayo, are party decorations and awesome cupcakes. Witness:
Fresh lime cake with tequila lime buttercream frosting sprinkled with candied lime and salt and Mexican hot chocolate cupcakes from Trophy cupcakes in Seattle. Yum.


And party umbrella topiaries. The tutorial for how to make them can be found here.
