Nutcracker tea

[osprey_archer]

I had the Nutcracker this evening! And beforehand I had a Nutcracker tea, for which I was going to make scones, except I was missing one of the ingredients and did not feel like battling the snowstorm to drive over to the store. So instead I walked to the bakery and bought cupcakes. The chocolate-orange cupcakes were a big hit!



And the Nutcracker was splendid. I always think it's too bad they don't have a photo opportunity after the show, because of all the beautiful costumes: the peppermint costumes were particularly stunning, and it's just too bad that I can't share it with you all.

That looks pretty and delicious.

The cupcakes were scrumptious.

Ooh, nice! That looks delicious and the fruit is really pretty. But it's the chocolate orange cupcakes I'm sighing jealously over the most, they sound awesome.

They're amazing! Chocolate and orange is a great combination.

That looks amazing! The fruit arrangement is cute, and now I want a cupcake. :)

Cupcakes just look so delicious. I find that this is often misleading and beneath their swirls of frosting the cake part is not that good, but this time the cupcakes lived up to their looks.

Hm, that's true, cupcakes are so fickle. I'm glad they were satisfactory this time!

Fickle! Fickle is exactly the right word for them.
