Cupcake lovers celebrate each year on National Vanilla Cupcake Day. These small cakes get their day on November 10th. Indulge in one or several.
Cupcakes were originally baked in heavy pottery cups. Some bakers still use individual ramekins, small coffee mugs, larger teacups, or other small ovenproof pottery-type dishes for baking their cupcakes.
Today, cupcakes are an art form (also an expensive art form if you go somewhere like Sprinkles). Bakers create elaborate decorations and displays utilizing a variety of ingredients.
I like the traditional cupcakes - vanilla, chocolate and a few different flavors - not all of this fancy schmacy stuff. However, I cannot stand whipped cream frosting. It's buttercream or nothing at all.
That's where I draw the line on my cupcakes.....with buttercream frosting! LOL
Happy Vanilla Cupcake Day!
Also, Happy Hump Day! We made it half way through the week. Some folks (not all) have tomorrow off for Veterans Day. Today is my Friday. I’m off tomorrow and Friday.
It's going to be a cloudy day in Dallas today - and maybe a few thunder storms this afternoon. I am heading back into the office today for another half day. I know that does not sound like much, but half days wear me out. There is so much going on at the end of this year. It is usually not this hectic (for my group). Typically, we have slowed down a bit and we are ramping up for 2022. But not this year. However, I only have 11 more days to work this year - so that does not suck!
Feeling OK this morning. I slept pretty well but this tingling will not stop and it is annoying as hell. I may have to risk it and have a plasma exchange on Friday, but I am going to try my best not to. Sadly, I think a great deal of it is work stress. Stress and MS do not mix but having the next few days off will be nice.
What is on your schedule today?
Anyhoozle, I hope you all have a wonderful day and whatever you do today and every day, do it with kindness in your heart. The world is full of kind people. If you can’t find one, be one! And as always:
...wear a mask
...be kind and compassionate to one another
...dance/sing/laugh it out. It might not help but it sure as hell couldn't hurt.
Peace, Love and Blessings to you all. -AJ
