cupcakes

Well, I am still in a fairly introspective mellow, bordering on sad mood. But its not all horrible. Today is my co-worker Elida's birthday and her kid (Adriana) who is two, made her yellow cupcakes with chocolate icing AND sprinkles (lots of sprinkles). Elida didn't want to eat ALL 24 of them so she brought some to work for ME. B/c she knew I loved cupcakes. I really do, they taste much better than cake in my opinion. Maybe b/c you can eat them with your hands, maybe b/c they signify a celebration, maybe b/c more often than not they have sprinkles. I don't know what makes them so awesome but they really are. My favorite is yellow cake with pudding in the mix, chocolate icing, and sugar sprinkles (the little colored ball ones). I also like cream cheese icing on homemade chocolate cake ones too. So, really, how can you be in a sad mood while eating cupcakes?
