Its been a hectic couple of weeks. My husband Jay & I traveled back to Columbus, Ohio to screen his movie Season of Darkness. The movie was actually filmed there four years ago. Many of the cast, crew, friends and family members came out for the event and it was a success. I have attached a picture of The Drexel Theater in Bexley, Ohio were the film screened. It was so nice seeing my former neighbors of Worthington, Ohio and my water aerobics ladies, family, my former boss and his family and all the friends who came out to support Jay and the movie. We also received some exciting news that the movie was selected for the Phillip K Dick Film Festival which will be shown in two different theaters in New York City in December.

This week I have been busy “experimenting” with holiday cupcakes. I came up with three different varieties of peppermint/candy cane cupcakes and I tried a peanut butter blossom cupcake as I love to bake that cookie for Christmas. They all taste very yummy, but I was disappointed that the candy cane actually bled into my frosting. They were so beautiful last night and I was so happy with them, but this morning was a different story. If I make more of this type, I won’t be able to stick the candy cane into the frosting until delivery time. The peanut butter blossom turned out really good. I tried a different peanut butter icing and it was very good. If anyone has other ideas for flavors for the holidays or for anytime, please email me at serendipitycupcakes@hotmail.com – I am always looking for new ideas to try. Off to bake – happy baking!
