Red velvet cupcakes (with cream cheese frosting)

...are yummy.

And even better when DH makes them AND cleans up. 

betrothed123

Tell him to send me one?  I've never tried red velvet cake before but I hear it's incredible.

Mmmm.  My roommate made them a little bit ago, and they were DELICIOUS.  And now I want some.

julezlee

Jealous. 

scoetto

I'm not sure how well they ship, but SURE!  lol

They're just from a box cake mix, so they're nothing spectacular for all the foodies out there, but they're amazing imho.

julez!  How are you?

Bite me, sco.  I am not a whore for having cupcak....err, cakelettes?

scoetto

You would like to too much.

ggmae

I have wanted these ever since Brie mentioned her FI getting them for her. Yum!

sucrets4

You know me too well, dear sco.

Oh wow, boo to that!  How did everything go?

scoetto

Sookie,

It's the only kind of cake DH likes, aside from Funfetti.

This is going to sound awful, but I haven't yet attempted making cake balls because I have issues with my hands being gooey.

I have those issues too.  I have to rinse my hands a gazillion times while I'm rolling the balls.

scoetto

I like donut holes. Cuz they're already in ball form.

beatlesgirl25

YUM, and what a nice husband! I never realized how amazing red velvet cake was until we tried it for our wedding cake tasting. Though ours had chocolate truffle filling, but I bet cream cheese frosting is a-mazing. Have another for me!

Also, haha to cakelettes.

julezlee

Everything went really well.  They're flying me back for a final interview in 3 weeks. I'm pretty certain it's mine, although I wish I didn't have to wait 3 more weeks to find out!  We got an apartment yesterday.  Everyone DH met with loved him and said they have tons of work for him once we're down there.  And the two informational interviews I had were really impressed with me and my experience and offered to help me find something if the other job doesn't come through. 

And, it felt amazing being down there.  It's definitely the right move for us right now. 

sucrets4

OMG julez, that's amazing!!  I know what you mean how a place just feels right...LR definitely doesn't, at least for me.  I'm so happy for you guys - everything sounds like it's working out so incredibly well!

Gloves?  It's worth the mess.

Hi everyone!

I want to make red velvet cake balls now but I don't have the ingredients. 

scoetto

Yay, Julez! That's great news! I hope we have the same success when we move back to my hometown

sucrets4

I just hope DH gets a job...

ggmae

D - I was expecting a "that's what she said" to Navy's rolling balls comment. I'm a little disappointed.

sucrets4

Haha, gg.  I was overwhelmed with Julie's good news.

But both Navy and sco's replys make me giggle.  I'm a 12 year old boy.

Thanks!  I'm crossing my fingers that you guys can get back up here in a place where you feel at home again.

That's great, Julie! One of my good friends lives/works in Austin and has told me that I should visit because I'd love it. If I ever make the trip, I'll let you know!

stina93446

YW Stina!
