I made cupcakes today! It's so weird, though - I usually can't stand cooking, and I hadn't touched an oven pretty much at all since high school, when I used to sell cookies with the argument that they buyers would be helping a poor child to feed herself, which was then followed by sad puppy eyes and batting eyelashes, but even then, my dad used to help me everytime, so it was my first time baking completely by myself.

The actual cupcake was delicious, all fluffy and pretty looking - I got the recipe from this blog, but the icing was a complete disaster. I forgot to mix the butter and the shortening until it fot fluffy before adding the powdered sugar, and it, ugh, what's the term in English... 'se cortó', whatever, and it was pretty yucky lucking. Still, my dad had two in a row and my brother, who had been mocking them steadily for half an hour, had to admit grudgingly that he liked it. In all, it was a lot of fun, and I plan on baking a lot now that I'm on vacation and have nothing better to do.

Will get more icing recipes and try again, because I'm nothing if not determined.

Other than that, I spent my evening laughing my ass off reading this blog about passive-agressive notes. Being a bit of a passive-agressive myself, I found it just hilarious.
