TWD~Chocolate Chocolate Cupcakes

By -

So here they are..Chocolate Chocolate Cupcakes. These were just delivered to the teachers\staff that have to stay late for those silly little conferences. I dropped them off, hoping to make a quick drop and dash, but teachers were actually waiting for me to arrive. Can we say embarrassing! I don't know why, but i didn't want a big to-do about this. I was making cupcakes anyway, so why not bring them over to the school?

I had one on my way over and i thought they were super rich and dense. I didn't really like them. I like light and moist cupcakes (she said Moist!) and these were so thick, and a bit dry. I even added oil and sour cream. But whatevs, the teachers can eat themselves into a chocolate induced coma and I will be sitting on my couch watching The Office re-runs on TBS. Thanks everyone for all the tips, I think next time i would reduce the flour and add more sour cream, milk and oil. Or not make them at all, and just make cupcakes from a box mix. gasp! I hope that doesn't get me kicked out of TWD for saying "box mix"!!!!!

I have been missing all these updates because I was still checking the old blog.

I'm retarded (which is PC to say if you're saying it about yourself right?).

Retarded just means slow. It is perfectly fine to use if you are actually slow. Like a flame retardant.

If you don't refrain from using the word "moist," you may lose your biggest reader. (Yes, I said biggest)

A Book and A Giveaway

As I said I would be doing in my 7 Resolutions, I am reading a book a week. This past week I read the book Precious, based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. I'm sure most of you have heard about the movie based on the novel. The book club that I belong to is reading this book and now that I read it, I am going to give it away. The book was very eye opening, raw. You really don't want to believe that children have to live like this, that this is reality for many children\teens. Incest, rape, abuse, lack of education, lack of everything! I know this stuff happens, but you don't want to believe it. I work at a Middle School, and I look around and wonder what happens to some of these kids when they go home. My heart breaks. It's not an easy read by any means, but it will make you think and feel. If you would like this book just leave me a comment. I'll post a winner on Feb. 1.
