I made dark chocolate mini cupcakes…
…and I made some delicious Ghirardelli 80% dark chocolate dipped strawberries sprinkled with slivered almonds! Yummy… I was glad I had a few left over for tonight!
…and this photo is just a shout out to my second favorite wall in our home…
After painting our entry way red, we “cobblestoned” it with a darker shade- and my #1 favorite is my lime green wall in our bedroom if you were wondering! 🙂
