Cupcake Fanatic
I'm Kristan -- a 33 year old housewife, cookbook queen, and lover of all things sweet, pink, and sparkly living in Arkansas. Joyful mom to an 8 year old boy and a sweet baby girl, I believe in cake mix, heavy eyeshadow, and sarcasm as a second language. If possible, I would pay my bills with cupcakes. But alas...people want money. So I'm sharing my cupcakes here with you!!
