Dark chocolate cupcakes
Happy New Year, everyone. For those of you who see this as the perfect time to kick off some drastic changes, may things work out for you. For me? Well, I am just hoping for some fun times and more memories to tuck into my back pocket.
I baked these dark chocolate cupcakes with my brother the second night I was home. Sprinkles sells these cupcake mixes that customers can take home in attempts to make their delicious cupcakes straight from the kitchen. What I learned? While these cupcakes were delicious, they hardly lived up to in-store Sprinkles cupcakes.
I finished reading Malcolm Gladwell's Blink last night and I highly recommend it. His ideas about the powering of thinking without thinking are just a reminder of how equally important gut feelings and careful analysis are. Next on my list? Gladwell's The Tipping Point and Outliers.
