About Me

Back to the beginning: Price and I met at YHS my freshman (his sophmore) year and dated for the next three years. After Price graduated, he joined the military and was stationed in Beautiful San Diego. Shortly after I graduated, we were married and had our 1st little man on the way: Preston Barrett Walling, born 2/2/07. We bought our 1st home in May 2009 and Little man #2, Ethan Jefferson Walling, followed on 7/29/09. As if life wasn't already crazy enough after that, we welcomed baby boy #3, Maverick Charles Walling on 11/20/2011 and our first girl (and Dog) Lucy in January 2012. We're still in San Diego, living one adventure after another!

Cookie filled Cupcakes

A co-worker of mine, who knows how much i love to bake, gave me the GREATEST cupcake recipe the other day! I had no reason to make 2 dozen cupcakes, but HAD to try these! The idea is a cupcake with a chocolate chip cookie (or any type of cookie) baked into the center. They are SUPER easy and REALLY good...who doesn't love cupcakes and cookies?? NOBODY!! So why wouldn't the two combined be fantastic?!?

Her is what you do:

1: Make the cake batter of your choice and put into cupcake pan...


2:Make or buy cookie dough and roll into small balls (about 1/2 to 1 inch) and drop into the raw cake batter. Bake at 350 for 20-22 minutes then pull them out of the oven and let sit (in the cupcake pans) for at least another 10 minutes. The take them out and allow to cool before frosting.


3:Make your favorite frosting (i choose chocolate peanut butter frosting), and frost!!


4: I don't know why, but i LOVE piping frosting on. I think it looks so much cleaner and i think you get a little more frosting this way :-). I'm a REALLY big frosting fan!!


5: Ta DA!! The end result! A cupcake...WITH a cookie in the middle! Amazing!


I bought a cupcake tower from Michael's a few months back and i use it all the time...it saves counter space (something i don't have much of) and looks so pretty!


Preston was dieing to get his hands on a cupcake!


And...he did! Happy cupcake eating!


Lots of Love and Bunches of Hugs
