What can I say? I love Sarah and Fred. So much so that I'm delaying my trip home to my family for Thanksgiving by a couple hours just so I can post these photos. :)
By the way, Fred? You are quite the dancer! The grooms from my last two weddings definitely prove that white men CAN dance. Also, Sarah? Your laughter and smiles brighten up any room. Muah! Big hugs and kisses from me. (Also, my puppies, Winston and Murphy say congrats to their favorite vet, Sarah.)
(P.S. You might recognize a recent bride and groom of mine in some of the pics.)

Roma surprised her mom with a family portrait session as a birthday gift. She scouted for the location, baked cupcakes, and packed a picnic for us. I can understand why Roma is so awesome after meeting her parents, and of course, their cutie pie puppy Lilah. What genuine and sweet people! Roma, I had the best time. Thank you so much for all of your efforts!
Roma's chai latte cupcakes were not only yummy, but they were also vegan and not too sweet. I knew you all might want the recipe, so here it is, according to Roma:
Preheat oven to 350.
Roma's chai latte cupcakes were not only yummy, but they were also vegan and not too sweet. I knew you all might want the recipe, so here it is, according to Roma:
1 cup soy or rice milk
4 black teabags
4 black teabags
1/4 cup canola oil
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
pinch of ground white or black pepper
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
pinch of ground white or black pepper
Preheat oven to 350.
In a small saucepan heat soymilk until it starts to simmer, add
tea bags, cover and remove from heat. Let it steep for about 10 mins.
Remove the tea bags, make sure you squeeze out as much tea/milk from
the bags as possible.
Add the apple cider to this and stir until you see it curdle.
If some of the soy milk has evaoprated add more until you have 1 cup of this mixture.
In a large bowl whisk together oil, sugar, vanilla and tea mixture until somewhat smooth.
Sift all the dry ingredients into the bowl. Mix well until you get all the lumps out. Some lumps are acceptable. :)
Fill cupcake liners about 2/3 and bake for about 20-25 mins. They should look golden-y and poofy :)
You can frost them your fave vanilla frosting, I personally prefer
a whipped vanilla icing....closest thing to enjoying a yummy chai latte
from Starbucks.
Before you try this recipe out, check out Roma's family and one of the cutest pups I've ever encountered.
