Lions and monkeys and zebras... oh my!

Today I can call myself a professional baker!  One of James' coworkers asked me to make cupcakes for his son's second birthday this weekend.  He wanted two dozen vanilla cupcakes with green frosting (like the Easter cupcakes, but without the eggs)

and two dozen chocolate cupcakes decorated like jungle animals.

This is the first time I've been paid to make cupcakes for someone.  It's very exciting.  Mama needs a new pair of shoes!  LOL.  I really am going to buy a pair of shoes with the money.  I need a pair of comfortable slip-on walking shoes for when we go to Paris this summer.
