Lily is adorable.
One loaf of bread is in plastic bag and in freezer. Other loaf of bread is in plastic bag and on counter. Cupcakes are in oven. (Cupcakes are way quicker than bread. Cupcakes were 20 minutes from, "Hmm, I want to make cupcakes" until they were in the oven.)
Hil, go you with the bread-making. I LOVE making bread from scratch. I wish I had time to do it more often. I use my aunt's recipe that she wrote out for me years ago. Actually, I think that recipe is in the Buffista cookbook.
Yeah, bread from scratch totally beats bread from the store. Does take a while, though.
The cupcakes are Mexican hot chocolate flavored, from Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World. Still cooking, but the batter is really good.
Aaaaand, the night-before-exam emails have started. Fun. First was sent at 8. I'm betting on last being sent at 4. Exam is at 10:20.
Happy Birthday, Glamcookie!
Adorable Lilybean pics. Cool picture of the leopard(?)'s face, too. I scrolled.
I swear the Seattleista babies are showing signs of Soap Opera Rapid Growth Syndrome--they were wee little burritos, like, a week and a half ago!
Cupcakes are cooling. Apartment smells like chocolate and cinnamon. A few of the cupcakes got kind of mangled while I was taking them out of the pan. That means I should eat them myself, rather than inflicting mangled cupcakes on my friends, right?
It would be wrong to impose mangled cupcakes on your friends. They're like the broken cookies!
I was going to make cookies for the friends who were coming over, but realized I needed chocolate chips. Dude! Chocolate chips at the store were like, $3.50! I could buy cookies for that much! I mean, they wouldn't be as good, but....dang. Food got expensive. Hrmph.
Food got expensive. Hrmph.
It's all downhill from here, baby.
