My Son who I will call Jeremy {because that is his name} texted me yesterday.
" Cupcake Thursday" can we come over?
Well of course they could come over.. I never miss a chance for the family to gather..
especially in the name of cupcakes. LOL!
Lately I have been making cupcakes on Thursdays. I send a dozen or so with Grumpy to work on Friday, a nice treat for the "guys" {gals too!}
My son and grand-kids now call Thursday "cupcake Thursday". Yesterday I made
Chocolate Cupcakes filled with Jello Cheese Cake Pudding.. then topped them with Ganache.. they looked wonderful. I didn't taste them. YET..
What is nice the kids new Charter School they attend there is no school on friday. So.. they can come on Thursday and watch a little t.v. usually cartoons. { they have no cable or dish so no reception now it is digital.} They like to come over and watch when they get a chance. Their parents don't have to worry about getting home before bedtime.
Since I had this $3.00 cupcake in San Diego, I have had fun making different cupcakes every week..
I decided to buy a couple of cupcake books I went to Amazon and ordered 2 wonderful cupcake books. They have hundreds of Ideas between the 2 of them. I got "Hello Cupcake" New Used for 5 dollars. It did not even look like it had ever been opened. Martha's cupcake book was only $13.00 {new}so with shipping I got both for less than Martha's would have been if I had gone to the book store. Great deals AMAZON!!
So now you know all about my Cupcake Antics.
{Antics: 1 : an attention-drawing often wildly playful or funny act or action : caper
When I post a random Cupcake now and again you will all know why.
If any of you have a cupcake idea you just love let me know!.

mmm my favorite is a red velvet cupcake. except when I tried to make them they came out like red corn muffins with really yummy cream cheese icing. Oh well. I guess I'm doomed to be like my mother "Cooks like an angel, bakes like the Devil." as Roxane would put it haha

Love your cupcake post. I just bought several boxes of muffin mix and saw they had chocolate muffin mix now at our store. I have not had time to make them, but will take a pic when I do. Now I want cupcakes lol.
