I love to bake. I REALLY love to bake. I feel like I'm pretty good at baking most basic things, but cupcakes are my baking nemesis. When I married Collin, we got tons of cute cupcake tins and a cupcake recipe book etc. Every time we baked cupcakes, whether from scratch or by box, they always were ruined!!! It's harder to bake in the high altitude of Provo + our oven was from the 70s, and a girl can only take so much so much heartbreak. I swore cupcakes off, FOREVER.
On Friday, I remembered cupcakes, that we now live at a normal altitude, and we have an excellent gas stove. I thought I'd give cupcakes another try in my life.
I whipped up a yellow cake recipe. The batter was SO GOOD! Kind of pretty, too.
The cupcakes were poured.
I went to heat it up in the microwave, and cooked it a little too long...oops.
That night I met Collin in the pink snow. This week has been such a busy one, and it was wonderful Love to see his face.
So pretty. So handsome. I'm so in love with Collin, it's crazy.
They still burned around the edges, but they were pretty good. I need to keep playing around with them to perfect. I used some of Collin's pink lemonade frosting. Yum.

I LOVE cupcakes. I use a nifty tool for the frosting {http://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/mechanical-pastry-bag/?cm_src=hero} to make it look really pretty. I actually don't like baking, but sometimes I get the urge. Your cupcakes look yummy!
