I am back.
After 15 days of break. Thanks friends for being concerned about me. I was really overwhelmed when I received mails asking if everything was ok with me. Thank you for caring.
This break has was the much needed one. I had too much going on since last six month at personal as well as professional front. It had started taking a toll at my health. But now we are sorted & back with much energy & load of recipes.
Well how do you like the little changes in the header.Would love your feedback. I mostly like light & pastel colors. But K insisted I should atleast put some color to my blog. We had atleast 15 designs going on & off. His suggestion its too plain. Add some brightness. My opinion not to bright. If it hurts my eyes how will the readers take it. Well this time , no every time he wins his way with me. But lets settle on that I am just giving it a shot. If I am not comfortable , its in my hands to change.
Loads of talking done. Such an introvert & silent person talking too much. I think I have caught a bug from Rafee after doing her last post.
Now to todays post for this beautiful Caramel Cuppies. Please bear with the photographs. It is taken at night on my kitchen platform with only two left & that also waiting to be eaten.
I used cake mix to prepare the cupcakes And filled it with delicious caramel sauce.
Topped with fresh cream & some caramel sauce.
These cake mixes come in handy when you have shortage of things at home. Many recipes can be whipped up in little time.
