Brief Description: Today is big beanās Valentineās Day party at kindergarten so I whipped up some homemade cupcakes for her to take for her party. They are vanilla cupcakes with vanilla buttercream and are so delicious! They are topped with cookies bought from Trader Joās. I cheat! 
They are perfectly pink and sweet. 
I did two batches for a total of 28 cupcakes. Below is the one I saved for little bean. Here is the recipe, which is definitely a keeper!: https://www.livewellbakeoften.com/vanilla-cupcakes/

@jellybean: Youāve submitted two projects under Herbology. The Pixie Hollow Baby Blankets, and Banana Bread. Only the first one has been counted. If you wish to submit the Banana Bread under another category please let me know.
Well it looks like after having both of you in this craftalong off and on for years, I finally did it. I finally mixed you two up while doing a points tally. I think it was mostly because the posts were in quick succession. Usually when that happens, itās the same person posting several blocks of projects in a row, and Iām just staying on the same row in the spreadsheet as I add in numbers. Iāve gone back and untangled them posts in both the list and spreadsheet, and double checked my work to make sure everyone has the points theyāre supposed to.
I think losing the ā89ā from the end of your name made it a pinch closer to Jillybeans too. @jellybean and @jillybeans. Iād swear you two ladies are trying to Gred & Feorge me.

I should have changed my name to jellybeantoes when we moved over here - I thought about it, but itās a bit late now
Actually, you can change your username here. Itās under your settings. I accidentally set mine up wrong when setting up my account here! LOL
I think I only had that option for a few days after I made my account (apparently thereās a username change period?), but itās not a big deal. Iām fine with my name - I was just going to change it if it was easy.

Just discovered Hogwarts and wondering where to find Hermioneās Homework Planner that you mentioned?
I shall be submitting homework shortly.

Hi @GMPNQ. Welcome to the HPC! Weāre glad to have you join us.
Hermioneās Homework Planner is a Google Doc that contains shorted versions of all the prompts we have each term. Itās color coded, and separated by type of prompt. For prompts that are revealed over time, I update the Master Sheet in the document when new items are posted. To use it, simply go to the link above (it might tell you I need to approve you, which I do pretty quickly). Look along the bottom of the page, where you will see various Sheets. Claim one of the empty sheets, by changing the title (Sheet 10, Sheet 11, etc.) to your username. Please do not ever change the Master Sheet, which is the one I update. 
FYI to everyone else who uses the Homework Planner, I did rearrange the sheets at the bottom, to be in alphabetical order. Because I canāt not put things in order.
