Basketball!fail and Cupcakes

Um...I think I might have to write off this go round of March Madness entirely. OB-Wan is yelling at the TV. That's always a good sign. Thankfully, I love a good upset so I am okay with it. Hee hee hee Jayhawks!

I need to email Dr. Daviau. That is going to suck.

On the bright side, I am launching both Project Orange and Project Nessie (as future Life Plans). We'll see what happens.

The cast assembled. It was a small cast, which probably really amused the cashier at Bulk Barn. I went through her till with four gumdrops, three apple rings, 12 chocolate sprinkles and a package of Skittles. It was funny.



[livejournal.com profile] eldanna had emailed me to say she was making muffins instead of cupcakes, and I replied that I was still going to decorate two of them. Hence the least healthy oatmeal muffins in the history of time.



Half is iced in black.



And the other half in purple. (I swear it's purple. I know it looks blue, but it was super purple in real life.)



And here we have the Cheshire Cat!



And a pair!

That is adorable! I totally see a project with my students using cupcakes.

Twelve sprinkles? Seriously? Was that even enough to register on the scale?!? (Amusing cashiers is the best.)

Yeah, I am pretty sure I paid for the bag. It cost 4 cents. And then I totally forgot to use the sprinkles (they were supposed to be whiskers), so it's even better!

Okay, that explains why I couldn't see any sprinkles on the cupcakes. ;)

Four cents. That's hilarious. :D

I KNOW! Steph sent me the picture, and I was all "Therapy cupcakes would be good, but I don't have any money, and I don't need to eat a batch of cupcakes", and then I decided to just make two, and it worked out!

Awesome! You made them and they look great!

Working tomorrow night and Monday if you want to drop by. Terry is back... apparently he just can't stay away. :(

Thanks!

I can't come in, unfortunately. I have $28 until I get paid (which is the day before Good Friday), so I have to save it for gas money.

I KNOW! It was just TOO MUCH FUN.

Love the cup-cats. But do they disappear before you have a chance to eat them? : )

I was going to photograph them in reverse (ie. full cupcake to just a smile), but I'd forgotten to take pictures of the apple rings on their own. We kept them in the fridge, which might have helped prevent their disappearance. :)

Good luck with the email to Davs. I hope she is understanding/supportive.

Your project names are rather obvious. ;)
