There's this blogger, who, I swear, if we lived closer, we'd totally be BFFs.
She'd come over, we'd pop in Harry Potter, plop down, munch on yummy deliciousness that we'd prepared, compare and contrast the books vs. the movies, and braid each others hair.
OK, braiding the hair would be weird, but we'd laugh and enjoy each others geeky company.
Or we'd watch reruns of Downton Abbey and sigh over the tragic love stories and shake our fists at the evil doers in the house.
Alas, she lives on the wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy other side of the country. Literally. I'm in Ohio, she's in Oregon. That's like way.far.
Like me, she loves, obviously, Harry Potter, and Doctor Who, The Walking Dead, and Star Trek. Like me, she's a baker and a blogger.
However, her creatively far eclipses me. Far. And, not to be weird or cocky, but I think I'm pretty dang creative.

Not even close to Darla. Her site, Bakingdom, is so chock full of ideas, my head may implode.
See, she comes up with things like this April Showers cake that she just posted today
Then there are things like these
or these Star Trek Cookies
There are things like these adorable Cinnamon Caramel Apple Pumpkins
And these lil baybee Pie Cakes
Next on my 'to try from Bakingdom' list are these
And DON'T EVEN get me started on her Harry Potter Treats!! Um. Yeah.
My FAVORITE! ZOMG!!
And that, my friends, is just a SMALL sampling.
To say she is soopa doopa talented is a vast understatement.
Hang on a second. I think I'm fangirling here!
Ok. I'm fine now.
One of the very first things I found of Darla's (via Pinterest) was this Cinnamon Roll Cupcake recipe.
