Coming back from my beer lunch, I casually clicked over to this site to see how traffic was doing, as I do every day (the website checking… not the beer lunching… well, maybe), and BOOM my traffic was exploding!

Now, I regularly have pretty good traffic for a food blog that is run as a hobby. Those tiny little blips up there represent daily traffic of about 50-100 visits, which I am happy enough with. The second biggest blip, the first one on the left is about 200 people. So you can only imagine my excitement seeing this tower of awesome coming directly from The Kraken’s Facebook page. Thanks guys! Those rum cupcakes were amazing and were enhanced, no, MADE by the addition of The Kraken’s rum.

If you just love to put alcohol in things, other than drinks… cause… who doesn’t?!, check out these other alcohol based recipes!

Rum Cupkrakes (with Kraken Rum)

Guinness Cupcakes with Bailey’s Irish Cream Buttercream (I will be remaking the Guinness chocolate cake this week, so keep an eye out for that!)

Tequila Lime Chicken (also awesome with shrimp)

Beer Bread (so easy and soooo frigging delicious)

Gordon Ramsay’s Shepherd’s Pie (… there is red wine in there… that counts!)

Alright, well I think that’s it. But there will be more!

Huzzah!
