Cupcake Death March OMG
Apr. 5th, 2009 11:30 pmOh. Lordy.
I kinda halved the recipe last time I made these. But this time, I figured I'd take some into work so probably best to make the whole batch... Dear god.
It's supposed to make 20ish normal size cupcakes, allegedly.
I just finished packing away... ooh, 24 normal size. Plus 20 minis for work.
And then there's probably another 30 minis left here and there, after all the sampling.
The fridge is packed to bursting with neon red cupcakes, I'm feeling kinda queasy after consuming my own weight in cream cheese frosting, and there's red food dye under my nails that's never budging, by the look of things. But the mega-baking, it was therapeutic, as always.
On the plus side, as of Friday night I am now a big fan of this Ping Pong Lychee & Rose martini-thang. Damn good stuff. (except with the gin, and the whole numb face thing, lol)
Last night there was mostly more Guinness, and the rest of Being Human. And I'm kinda revising my initial horrified reaction after watching the remade pilot.
I watched half of ep 2 and all of episode three last week. And I loved episode three, at which point it kinda did a heartbreaking little Sixth Sense riff and kicked off into something else altogether.
ack. must sleep now.
