![]() Anyone would be happy to have a furry friend like that! ![]() They make the perfect pets, because they are quiet, easy to clean up after, and have a relatively long lifespan - not to mention how cute and cuddly they are. Spiderfriends Anjelica and Mateo Franados were hanging with their wedding planners and a few other busy bees at HQ that day crafting and preparing for their wedding, which took place at Harvest House this past Saturday (Congrats sweet friends!!)! I selfishly got to indulge in my favorite part of group Wake & Bake sessions-watching other people enjoy the fruits of our labor.Bunnies are adorable. The best part about our return to the kitchen was the fact that we had so many friends to share our spoils with. Like honey harvesting, good things come to those who wait, because the combination of crunchy almonds with the smooth pastry cream nestled in between two layers of dense, but fluffy was unbeelievable. The cake batter was enriched with active yeast and we had to let the dough rise a bit before baking. The instructions are pretty straight forward like any other cake, except for the yeast element, which was new for us. How adorable is that?Īfter extensive research, we decided to use Smitten Kitchen’s recipe, because we have yet to try one of her recipes that didn’t turn out absolutely divine. This particular recipe is one we’ve never attempted before, but looking at the structure and ingredients how could we not?! Bee sting cake, or Bienenstich, is a German yeasted cake with a caramelized honey + almond topping, and a vanilla pastry cream center…*wipes drool off keyboard* It’s said that this cake is referred to as a “bee sting cake” because bees were attracted to it and ended up stinging the baker who put it on the window sill to cool. We jumped right back into our usual groove of pounding coffee, pouring wine, and twirling in the kitchen. We gathered at the Spiderweb HQ ready to take on the day. We may not have posted in a few months, but we haven’t lost our love for bad puns ok? Bee prepared. ![]() ![]() We also released an album and have been busy working on our first book (more news on that soon)! WHEW! Now that you’ve been briefed on some of the happenings within the ‘web, let’s get down to bees-ness! Sorry, I should’ve mentioned prior to this moment just how many bee puns you should brace yourself for. This truly special exhibit, called collective | connection is on display at the DMA until January so you have plenty of time to go see it! Partnering with local nonprofit DMAC Denton, they’ve come together to help artists in the Denton community gain access to mental health services!Īnd where do I even begin listing the amazing myriad of projects courtney marie’s been laboring towards?! On top of her ever expanding rap sheet, it’s an absolute honor to share that Spiderweb Salon just unveiled their highly-anticipated exhibit with the Dallas Museum of Art!! For this installation, fifty poets, writers, actors, and musicians wrote and recorded audio experiences inspired by the theme of gender + identity and works of art from the museum’s collection. Caitlin’s been working her butt off as well with navigating a new career pathway for herself (and we’re happy to report that she officially snagged the dream job she was hoping for!)! In addition to that, she’s been helping spearhead the You Are Here project with courtney marie and fellow members of Spiderweb.
