Today was supposed to be Loll-Around Day, and while I managed to keep my PJs on all day, I did not get to do all that much lolling. There was the post-party clean-up for one, and now my older daughter is sick. It is always something ...

I also made cupcakes to send to the birthday girl's preschool tomorrow. Originally, she had said the wanted the cupcakes to be same as the big cake, white with pink flowers, but by today we were ready for some change. Negotiating with a four-year-old is always interesting. At first she wanted pictures on the cakes, and while I am sure some enterprising person is able to do this, I am not. When I suggested chocolate, she said some chocolate and some white. Although the concept took a while to sink in, we finally agreed on Marble Cupcakes. They came out really cute, in a minimalist sort-of-way. Any kind of icing seemed a distraction, so we just let confectioner's sugar snow on them. Snow-Cupcakes!

I will post about this venture in considerable detail, picture and all, since I have decided to poke my head out of my cosy little corner and participate in the Is My Blog Burning Event which this month happens to be cupcakes.

And yes, I know, there is something else I need to write about, I am not ducking out of "IT" ... just didn't have much computer time lately.  12:24:47 AM
