firsts



it seems like lately i've been writing about a lot of firsts: my first big game, my first santa clara gift exchange... and yesterday i made my first batch of cupcakes from scratch. YUMMY!

i have been craving my favorite cupcakes- Magnolia Bakery Vanilla Vanilla Cupcakes from new york. during my last trip to nyc, that lasted a mere 24 hours, i made sure to get half a dozen to take home to sf. there is something special about these darn cupcakes. they taste homemade, are not too sweet and don't taste like cake mix from a box.

well, i found a recipe for them online and got to baking. i made 3 dozen.

it's evil in my apartment, carb hell.

i brought some to work and now i think i'm going to bring them to a holiday party this weekend.

maybe i can become a cupcake caterer :)

my first scu holiday party



tonight was my first santa clara gift exchange party! to go with our 2-buck-chuck bottles of wine, rex and i baked/fried some popeye's style chicken to take to the party :)

for the gift exchange we ended up giving a mojito set and getting an interesting jar of cinnamon sugar cookies from starbucks.
