starting a blog.....

so i finally decided to start a blog. i've been checking out lots of blogs about food lately, and most of them about cupcakes. oh, and one about running, but SOMEONE doesn't update it often. this means you, mecky!! i like reading my friends blogs, its kinda nice to know whats going on in their lives when i'm not able to talk to them on as regular of a basis as i'd like to.
most of you know that i REALLY like all things cupcakes, thus the name cupcake mom. i like to make them, look at them , decorate them, and most of all, eat them. i also have a small obsession with sprinkles to top them, i seem to have a rather large collection of them. no shortage of sugar in this house, i must say!!! my family and friends are my test subjects, but usually i get no objections, after all, who in their right mind turns down a cupcake?!!
i have to brag, i finally made actual cake from scratch the other day, i used a paula deen recipe for 1234 cake, and wow, what a difference it makes. i may never want to use boxed cake mix again. well, except for the part where you have to mix it for 6 minutes with an electric blender. my arm was a little sore! and six minutes kind of drags on (do not look at the clock when you do this, it will take longer!!!)
so anyway, here's to my new venture. happy blogging to me!!
hugs and chocolate kisses to all!!
