It's in a cup, it is a cake - It's CakeCups!

We always like to play with our food - that's a given. And we love to play dress up. Makes absolute sense that we would go wacky over little, petite cakes that we get to make purdy and then devour. Enter the realm of my cupcake world - if you dare.

Knit cupcakes with pinkishly cute flavor. A cupcake for all seasons. One you can constantly admire and reminds you of the favorite snack that you should be on your way to purchase, immediately, if you had your way.

So, have it your way Darling!

Hats that look like cupcakes are also an essential. You must have the proper clothing accessories while admiring the object of your desire, planning it's eventual demise, asking yourself that all
important question -

Do I eat all of the frosting off first, or save some for with the cake?

You know that you are being, well, obsessive, when you make photo cards of the cake in the cup, put them in picture frames, send them onto friends to salivate over. Buy copious amounts of cute literature telling you how to create more and more and more of them in all of their earthly forms.

So, if you are in need of cupcake solace, a friend in arms when they try to come and take your cupcakes away from you just when you were having the most fun,

I am here for you.

(And I can hook you up - mainline you some of the Cupcakes accessories any girl would ever need. Or just let you cry on my shoulder, and hold the cupcake away from those salty tears so that we have something good to eat when we come to our collective senses)

More work than I can say...

My work has spilt over permanently onto the couch, it's covers, the surrounding floor. I am awash in efforts to finish the chickies by this weekend ( I feel absolutely duped! I thought Easter was next weekend!!) and I am preparing to install a host of goodies at my friend, Mary's, store. Whew! I feel undone - and undone, and undone - as I view all the yet to be finished goodies littering the floor.
I am silly - I am making Cupcake Hats (for adults) in an assortment of sorbet colors. The work that goes into these seemingly simple, but lovely confections will never correlate to the minimum wage - and yet, I toil on. May they find happy heads one day.
The apartment is awash with spring colors = I hasten to my deadlines. It shined with sun here yesterday, and I created freshly mown and weeded green patches in the backyard for me Mum. Today, I am squirreled away in the apartment, watching the pure creative genius of Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean on the film MirrorMask and pondering my personal navel a wee little bit. Silly,silly thing - I am making chickies and cupcake hats, and aprons - again. My friend, Lodema the Potter calls this "soft art". May I soon find my way into realms of surer footing and happier dreams, but for now, I am just happy to be finding the end of these projects somewhere in sight. Amen!
