I should have been blogging about cupcakes
Last week I made a ton of tiny cupcakes. cinnamon with cinnamon frosting, cinnamon with mayan chocolate frosting, black bottom with mayan chocolate frosting and ginger with lemon frosting. I made them for my friends final day of shooting for her trailer but I had my dates confused. So that’s what I get for never picking up my phone or calling my friends. Fie on me! And thanks, Vim, Jack, my neighbors, my sister, Vim’s coworkers and the fine ladies at Blogher for helping me eat them.
Now I have to start all over again! I’m going to do cinnamon with cinnamon again, black bottom with white chocolate and brown sugar with caramel and salt this time.
And then I’ll bring them to my friends set and get to see her working as a director. That’s pretty exciting as I can see that it will be her natural element. She moved here like a year ago and has already taken certain parts of SF by storm. Good for her! The least I can do is bring her tons of cupcakes since I was not able to donate money for this particular creative venture.
I’m sick right now. my nose is doing that horrid is stuffy and yet dripping on everything thing. Jack was a huge pill today. Partly because I was sick and had no patience but also he was just whiney.
I’ve been trying to make sure he understands what whiny is and that it is not okay. I had to steal myself with the idea that I was going to have to be stern and probably upset him while making sure that he know I do not want him to whine and annoying. I’ve started to tell him to stop crying which I wasn’t doing when he was littler because I thought it might make him feel like it wasn’t okay to be sad or whatever. But at this point he can use words and/or figure out how to fix many upsetting situations by himself or with minimal help.
I’m attempting to work like a busy beetle sewing spats for the upcoming Bazaar Bizarre winter show. I swear this is the last time I am vending spats for a while. I still enjoy making them… but right now it just takes too much time and isn’t ever going to be profitable in this incarnation. Maybe I’ll like source out some parts of it eventually. or maybe not. I want to concentrate on sewing for myself anyway. I have tons of things I want to make for me and for Vim too.

We are at a similar stage with our toddler. She is definitely not liking the word ‘no’ and is not afraid of having a few temper tantrums to tell us so.
Your friends job sounds exciting and your cakes sound yummy – have fun baking

Oh man, I wish I’d've been there for the cupcake extravaganza. I just got some super cute Halloween silicon cupcake molds for $1 at a W-S clearance. And now you’ve inspired me to make cupcakes! How’d the caramel-salt frosting work out? Better question, how’d you make it? I love that flavor at Bi-Rite Creamery.
