Dalek Cupcakes

We made these for Mario’s birthday in I believe 2007. They were so freaking hard to make because we’re inept at sweets. But hilariously worth it.

Vestiges of 2007

Good news! I’ve officially finished processing the pictures from 2007, which means I’m done with my old Kodak Easyshare (lovely camera, but it was really starting to show its age) and now am on to my Canon Rebel XT pics from 2008 and beyond!
