Cupcakes and wine

I had a great Valentine's Day celebrating my friends and food.  Most of the day I cleaned and continued organizing my place.  During that time I had a conversation with Big B and he made my day even better...as always!
Flowers from Big B, minus the bear (Knock Out Nate).
That evening some friends came by and we enjoyed some homemade brownies, wine (Canyon Oaks Cabernet SauvignonBitch and Bricco Riella's Moscato D'Asti), pizza from Papa Johns and cupcakes from the Buttercream Cupcakery.
From top left to bottom right:  chocolate on vanilla, vanilla bean, red velvet, vanilla on chocolate, another chocolate on vanilla, a second red velvet, chocolate, another chocolate, rose and champagne.

The Moscato was really challenging to open and I had to have some assistance.

Overall it was a great day!

It's American?

I am watching the tv show about the Duggar family.  During the show they were also being taped by a French television crew and they said that to have 17 (almost 18) children is American!  It concerns me that this is the image we portray.
