I loved the season-appropriate cupcakes made by SweetiePie in Napa Valley. I managed to resist this amazing temptation so can’t vouch for the quality but if they’re anything like the fabulous cakes we tasted, they wouldn’t have disapointed any St. Patrick Day revelers.

This is “Baby,” the teacup chiwawa that we shared our bed with for two days. Baby belonged to our gracious Napa Valley hosts. She did not fail to enchant with her penchant for appearing absolutely adorable for no reason.


On our way to the pre-wedding florist appointment, we ran across this unique Emu in the middle of Napa Valley ranch country. The Emu seemed enamored and curious with us, making a low throaty sound to apparently show his appreciation for our attention. I suspect that he also was trying to convince me to remain a vegetarian with no appetite for emu oil based soaps but I could be making that part up.

I have more photos to share from the final day of our Wine Country Wedding Tour. I’m playing with more mineral make up tonight so hopefully, I’ll come up with some fun colors and recipes to share.

  1. Casey,

    I didn’t get a chance to look at the cupcake closely since (sob), I picked a homemade Oreo Cookie to eat instead (and no, it wasn’t NEARLY as good).

    But, I suspect that it’s a frosting roll that they freeze, cut and then plop on the cupcakes.

    But, I could be wrong … =)

  2. Those cupcakes look FANTASTIC! Looks like you found some nice Irish spirit in Napa! 🙂

  3. Those cupcakes look yummy. How did they get the icing on top to look like that? It doesn’t look like it was spread on.

  4. The dog was very cute but I think I like bigger dogs from a running & protection standpoint. And it was like a little cat which was also pleasing.

  5. Baby is adorable. I have a thing for big big dogs, but sometimes those little itty bitty ones clutch my heart 🙂
