Baking with the Pioneer Woman
Hey all, I wanted to show you a quick set of pics from the first half of Monday. Pioneer Woman made her Chocolate Sheet cake recipe (so yummy, by the way) for some cupcakes and then I showed her a few tips on using fondant. Here’s a peek. We had a blast. I’ll recap the photos later, but for now enjoy!













LOVELY PHOTOS!!!!!!
March 10, 2009 03:17 PMWow, that looks like so much fun! And I am totally jealous of the ranch- it is all around GORGEOUS!
Wish I could be there!
March 10, 2009 03:18 PMJealous! So cool you guys are doing this.
March 10, 2009 03:21 PMAwwww – the cupcakes are adorable!
March 10, 2009 03:25 PMI’m so jealous I can’t see straight…I kept checking to see who the winners were to go…but couldn’t find a list. Lucky Ladies!!!
March 10, 2009 03:32 PMLove looking at it from your perspective.
March 10, 2009 03:34 PMWow, so lovely, bet they taste divine!!!! What talent, and the ranch looks awesome!!!! How nice to have so much room to create….. love the colored pots too!!!
March 10, 2009 03:42 PMI have the red ones.
Cheers
Margaret B
very cool :) I love how blogging has brought so much personality to the internet, and two amazing bloggers can combine forces for everyones benefit. cant wait to see all the photos…
March 10, 2009 03:53 PMI’m so freakin jealous right now Bakerella! You know that I should be there with you. You look like you are having a ball and I can’t wait to hear all about it when you get back. I want to see pics of you and MM working in the barn or mending fences. I need proof that you actually did alittle work instead of just fun fun fun!
We miss you!

March 10, 2009 03:55 PMOH…how I would have loved to be there.
I wanted to so badly, but alas, I live 50 billion miles away.
March 10, 2009 04:06 PMIt looks like you had a blast! The Ranch is absolutely beautiful!!
March 10, 2009 04:09 PMI can’t think of a better way to spend a day. Or a week. Or, you know, whatever…than baking with you two and hanging out on the ranch. Looks like a blast.
March 10, 2009 04:18 PMso awesome! i am like the others…wishing i could be there. :) can’t wait to see what all you’re up to! :)
March 10, 2009 04:30 PMOh how I would love to be there eating all those yummy things but then I would feel obliged to do laps of the ranch land ;-), enjoy each others company. I can’t believe two of my most favourite blogs are in the one place.
March 10, 2009 04:41 PMYou should try twitterfall, it’s shinier than twitters search function http://www.twitterfall.com/bakerella for example :) I love all the pictures (love seeing PW’s MM wears his hat indoors!).
March 10, 2009 04:42 PMAH! I’m so jealous!
March 10, 2009 05:20 PMHow fun!!!
March 10, 2009 05:28 PMThank you for sharing the sneak peek!
March 10, 2009 05:32 PMI have been so curious!
Wondering who the young man with the video camera is?
You and PW are two of my favorite people! So nice that you two got together! Have a BLAST!
March 10, 2009 05:50 PM(Oh, there she goes, flaunting her Le Crueset collection…just touch them for me, ok?) ;)
March 10, 2009 05:51 PMWonderful photos Bakerella and Thank you for sharing with us your time together with Pioneer Woman. Both you ladies are so talented, I am sure we will all be amazed with what comes out of today.
March 10, 2009 05:52 PMHow fun!!! Looks like you’re baking up lots of fun :-)
March 10, 2009 05:53 PMI so wanted to win and be there with you both today. The photos are great and I can’t wait to see more!
March 10, 2009 05:53 PMI’ll never win a day with the PW, and I could never make it that far away for a weekday session. Being an adult really isn’t fun sometimes. SIGH!
March 10, 2009 06:07 PMThe pictures are so fun. I especially love the one with MM on the computer at that giant table. :)
March 10, 2009 06:19 PMThe pics are beautiful. Yumm, I love that chocolate cake recipe.
March 10, 2009 06:20 PMHave a great day :)
So sad I didn’t get to be one of the onlookers today since it would only be an hour or two drive… it looks like quite the production. I can’t wait to read all about it on both blogs!
March 10, 2009 06:24 PMWow…what a kitchen! She must be some cook to have that kitchen! And her chocolate sheet cake looks amazing! The pictures make me want to leave work and go home to bake.
March 10, 2009 06:37 PMTwo of my favorite bloggers in the world together? It’s almost too much for my wee little heart to bear!
March 10, 2009 06:45 PMoh my gosh! those pictures are awesome! and that kitchen is to die for! and of course we’re all jealous! hahah!
March 10, 2009 06:59 PMThat is the kitchen of my dreams!! How many le creuset pots can a gal have?!
March 10, 2009 08:07 PMThere is a tv show on the N channel which is part of Nickelodeon but it’s for teens (my kids tell me).
March 10, 2009 08:16 PMAnyway, it has Jenny Garth and Amanda Bynes called What I like about you. Have you seen it? They have a cupcake store with the cutest cupcakes! It made me think of you.
I am so jealous! It all looks like so much fun! Beautiful cupcakes.
March 10, 2009 08:26 PMWOW! Chocolate!!!! It looks so yummy! Can’t wait for more! How fun!
March 10, 2009 09:24 PMoh wow… what great photos – i am tag team watching the goings on between these two sites… what a lot of fun – cant wait to see yall make those pops – hoping to pick up a hint on how to keep them from being the mush that mine always are…. what a fun experience.
March 10, 2009 09:33 PMI want to be there…I want the lodge…I want the kitchen space…heck I will just settle for some more pictures.
March 10, 2009 10:37 PMGreat photos. Is it wrong to be so damn jealous?
March 10, 2009 10:43 PMOMG that’s so awesome. I think we all would have loved to have been just teeny little flies to witness two of our favorite bloggers together.
Can’t wait for the play-by-play!
March 10, 2009 11:46 PMI wanted SO BADLY to win the invitation to come with… :( Still crying… But I can’t wait to see all the yummy photos you gals will put up. My two favorite bloggers! How fun!
March 11, 2009 12:18 AMAre you guys like each others biggest fans?? haha I bet you guys had a blast!! I can’t wait to see more of what you did together! I Love both of you–you are so inspiring and I am so thrilled to see what you came up with together!
March 11, 2009 12:26 AMSo envious Bakerella. Great pics of The Lodge, things we have never seen. I almost died when I heard you were headed to Ree’s. Next time the contest should not be for people who live within driving distance of the ranch. HAVE CREDIT CARDS WILL TRAVEL! TWO OF MY FAVORITES!
March 11, 2009 12:33 AMI’m dying to see video of you guys!! Take us there with you!!
March 11, 2009 12:35 AMI really wanted to eat one of those cupcakes! And your fondant is perfection. I aspire to be a BAKERELLA,too!!!
March 11, 2009 02:58 AMIt looks and sounds like you had a fabulous time.
I made your cupcake pops today for the first time! They turned out really well. They are a hit! Fun to make too!
If you’ve got a minute take a peek: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mommyknows/3345202813/
Thank you for sharing this great recipe with us ALL!
March 11, 2009 03:59 AMHmm…you can make cupcakes out of her chocolate sheet cake…who wudda thunk it? Looks like y’all are having fun?
March 11, 2009 04:44 AMWow! I am so jealous with those beautiful pics…and cupcakes!!
March 11, 2009 04:49 AMLooks like you had a fabulous TIME! The photos look just as fun and I hope you had a blast, which I am sure you did because you have the most sunny disposition = )
March 11, 2009 05:11 AMI’m excited to see the posts!!! I wish I could have been there!

March 11, 2009 05:38 AMWow… my first time to you (courtesy of P Dub of course!). I am not jealous at all. All that washing up. All that mess. All that filming and focussing… nope. Not jealous!!
Seriously, your cakes are adorable and I love, love your slideshow from the day’s activities. Know that when you maximise on a big screen those pixels go a little crazy. But I HAD to check it out at maximum velocity!
Will check back later…
March 11, 2009 06:51 AM:-)

What can I say!!! If you could see me now, you would think I’m Shrek related, so GREEN am I right now because of the envy. I’m sure you had a great time together. And… by the way, the kitchen in the photos is quite similar to the kitchen in my dreams. Snif!
xoxo for both.
March 11, 2009 08:29 AMThis is better than Bradgelina or whatever they call them.
March 11, 2009 11:55 AMWish I was there too.
Oh, I can’t see the pics (some stupid new filter on my PC) but I bet it was a BLAST!
And now I NEED cake…
March 11, 2009 12:56 PMI have really enjoyed following your whole experience on both sites and twitter!
Hope you have a safe trip home!
My daughter is really digging your blog. She is cake obsessed
and loves working with fondant. We can’t wait to make some cake pops!

March 11, 2009 01:06 PMI lived in Oklahoma for 9 years and moved back home to NC almost 2 years ago. I never realized how much I actually miss it. Looks like you’re having a good time! :)
March 11, 2009 01:22 PMYou lucky ducky you!!!!!
Just call me jealous!!!
March 11, 2009 01:49 PMWhat a beautiful place! Looks like there was some serious creativity and inspiration going on! I have a question. Not sure if you can answer on the comments section, but my daughter will be turning 21 this week. I would like to try your cake pops! How long do they last? Can I make them ahead. How do you store them? Also, are there local stores that sell the edible pens or do you have to order them online? What beautiful blogs! You girls rival any magazine out there! You should be in print!
March 11, 2009 02:12 PMso cool – looks like you guys had a great time!
March 11, 2009 03:02 PMU guys sure are having fun…But who is that hot guy on the computer???? more pics of him pls..LOL

March 11, 2009 06:42 PMLooks like all of you had a great time!
After following this though, I swear I saw some easter egg pops on either your site or pw's site once & now I can't find it anywhere. Have you made them before?
March 11, 2009 06:52 PMMiss Angie
March 11, 2009 07:58 PMDon’t you just love Ree? I thought it was funny to see two of my favorite blogs/sites coming together. I follow Pioneer Girl as well as Bakerella. You’ll have to check out my blog too. I just started so it’s a little bare, but give me time.
God Bless
It looks like you are having SO MUCH FUN! Do you want to whip up something creative for my Leapin’ Leprechauns cookoff? The winner gets $100 worth of goodies from cookware.com! You are so amazingly creative, I’d love to see what you come up with! Details here:

March 13, 2009 09:32 PMI loved reading your commentary on your visit to PW. I’m so glad she featured you; now I get to enjoy another blog!
March 17, 2009 12:13 PMThe photos – breathtaking.
The chocolate cake – also breathtaking!
I made up some cupcakes for work and word spread quickly – very quickly. I had people I didn’t even know asking for a cupcake! Sadly I only had 2 dozen, which were gone before I knew it. Thanks to PW for sharing the recipe, and thank YOU for sharing your photos!
March 18, 2009 12:56 AMjustafarmersdaughter – welcome back any time.
ThePeachMartini – they were good, huh!!!!
March 18, 2009 02:46 AMI have such kitchen envy right now! I have one of those le creuset pots too . . .but it takes up my whole darn kitchen! And certainly there’s no room for it to have friends . . .
March 22, 2009 01:28 AMThe Mustangs were beautiful….I love that you named the little white mare Buttercream!
