I discovered mold today behind my mothers entertainment center which is pretty valuable. As soon and I pulled out everything the whole bottom of the three pieces of the furniture were falling apart. The whole carpet is soaked as well. called the land lord and she told us that my mom should of gotten renters insurance. It's not my mom's fault that she has mold right? I mean there is no foundation. The apartment is pretty shitty. Also my mom is getting rental assistance and they are saying she needs a letter from our landlord to prove that she has seen the mold, does this make sense?

My daughter is turning 3 on June 27, 2008 and my husband and I are throwing her a birthday party. It's a cupcake themed party, and colors are chocolate brown and pink. I need ideas on games, goody bags, favors, etc. I want to keep it all about the kids so little details for them like the favors will be great. Our budget is about $300 and I think we can do a lot with that much if we spend it wisely. It's going to be at my mother in laws house, and we were thinking about getting a couple of little waiting pools for the kids since it's going to be like over 100 (we live in Fresno, Ca) As for the menu I was going to order pre-cooked chicken, macaroni salad, fruit salad, beans, rice (my husband is Hispanic) rolls, or tortillas. We are also going to get a pinata. As for the dessert, I work at a bakery so I'm gong to order cupcakes with chocolate brown and pink deco, and then a separate little cake for the birthday girl. What do you think? Please I need help. I'm really stressing out here!

Oh I was going to have this printed on a cupcake shaped invitation. They won't be baking them just frosting and decorating. I just wanted to have a cute little rhyme for the invite. I just was stumped.

I'm fine with the actual cupcakes, I can dye frosting... but each cupcake has to bear a resemblance to Shrek... I can't mass them all together, or do swamp cupcakes with cookie crumbs. I searched all over the internet to no avail... please help because he'll be five on SUNDAY!

The beauty of cupcakes lies on the fact that you can make twenty different types of cupcakes at the same time without putting in all your time and effort in the kitchen. Cupcakes are easy to prepare, yet they are so versatile that you can actually serve them on different occasions in several unique ways. From the usual family gathering to the formal dinner, cupcakes are sure not to disappoint. All you need are a few good cupcake recipes and plenty of creative decoration ideas.

Party Cupcakes for Every Occasion

Making cupcakes that match your party theme is the best way to add your personal touch to the event. If your party celebrates the birthday or the recent success of a member of the family, you can add his favorite object or favorite fruit as a topping.

A son who loves basketball so much would appreciate cupcakes with orange candy balls on it. You can also write letters on each cupcake using icing and then arrange them accordingly to spell the celebrator's name.

Cupcake toppers like animal-shaped candies, chocolate sprinkles and other sugar shapes can instantly make your cupcake a work of art. Plus, they make the cupcakes even more mouth-watering.

Even more formal social gatherings such as weddings have also adopted the use of cupcakes. A tower filled with cupcakes designed according to the bridal motif has been a favorite choice. Unlike traditional cakes, your guests can appreciate the cake designs better because it is not only a slice of a bigger cake they are getting, but the entire cupcake. You can even use the decorated cupcakes as party favors for your guests.

Before getting to the wedding, a proposal comes first. Any girlfriend will surely find it romantic to find her engagement ring on top of her favorite cupcake. Who could say 'no' to such a dreamy proposal, or at least, to such a yummy cupcake?

Healthy Cupcakes for Your Kids

If you are a mom who is working on training your kids to eat healthy without depriving them the joys of eating a good serving of cupcakes, there are several ways you can do to ensure that you achieve this win-win situation.

Almond cupcakes and carrot cupcakes are great-tasting desserts or snacks that your kids can bring to school or eat at home. You may also give your children chocolate-zucchini cupcakes. The chocolate will mask the taste of zucchini, but its nutritional value is kept intact. Your kids will not feel like they are missing out on the cupcake fun as they have their own, too.

If a little swirl of whipped cream can make your kid eat your pumpkin cupcakes, then go ahead and make this trade. You would later realize how agreeing to this deal can help your child appreciate healthier options. This gives him the idea that healthy foods are also delicious.

Personally decorating your cupcakes makes them extra special. At home or in parties, as a healthy snack or as a guilty pleasure, to be eaten now or taken to go, cupcakes are sure to bring extra cheer to your family meals and social gatherings.
