Weekly photo challenge: Sweet

My take on the theme for this week’s photo challenge has nothing to do with the delicious sweets, cakes and desserts I like to indulge in on occasion. For me there is nothing sweeter than a puppy, I love their tiny pink paws, fat little bellies and the way that they smell. Even though they have a tendency to make a huge mess and draw blood with their sharp little teeth and claws they delight me with their antics and always make me smile.

The Super Sweet Award

A big thank you to Meg Travels for the Super Sweet Award, this is not an award that I’ve seen before and being a lover of sweet things I just love the idea (and the colourful image of cupcakes) of a super sweet blogging award.

Cake. Chocolate mudcake and Caramel mudcake are my favourites.

I love chocolate, but not chocolate flavoured things like milk shakes or ice-cream.

Hard to choose between cupcakes and gelato.

When I’m not supposed to eat them, I have been known to eat chocolate mudcake for breakfast.
