Sugar, eggs, flour...

A little over a year ago, Noelle and I were shopping in a kitchen supply store (proper name omitted for copyright reasons—haha!), and I fell in love with a happy-faced spatula. Noelle surprised me with it as a gift, and now whenever I bake I send her a cell phone picture of my baked goods, with Happy Face Spatula (yes, that’s it’s name) stealing the show.
