Sweet Nothings

How is everyone? Surviving the second Friday 13th in as many months?

I? Am totally a Domestic Goddess!

Ok, that's a terrible lie, seeing as I am The Messiest Person Ever, but I have been cooking many exciting things.

I made a massive dinner for me and Nat on Wednesday, admittedly with his help. We had lamb chops and new potatoes and peas and gravy and sweet potato mash. And nothing went wrong! It's a culinary miracle, people! I'm a student. I'm supposed to be subsisting on noodles.

Also, I decided to make cupcakes. We had most of the ingredients and I had the urge. Plus Colline had the urge too, and you shouldn't go against The Hive Mind. I'm not usually that into cooking, it's something I do because I have to eat and I like to eat nice things, but it's not a passion. At all. I am a great disappointment to my father in that regard.

But baking, now there's something I can get into. The whole process makes me very happy, and I can actually produce delicious baked goods. I have few skills in life, but cake is definitely one of them!

So I made vanilla cupcakes with pink icing, lemon butter icing and also butterfly cakes. There were also many hundreds and thousands (or "sprinkles" as I believe you colonials call them) used and scattered about the kitchen.
( Proof! )

Also, hilariously

You Are a Vanilla Cupcake

You are very sweet and mellow. You are easy going and easy to like. You are drawn to those stronger personalities. You get along with powerful people. You are like a cupcake because you appeal to almost every type of person. You are friendly and accepting. You bring out other people's best qualities.
