CONGRATULATIONS to BK on your lofty new perch in the HHW firmament!!!!!

Isn't it arguable that he IS the HHW firmament?

Hmm, those 100 iconic movie lines could make for a good 100 posts for a very slow posting day. :)

Or not.

Fritters at suppertime sounds like a tasty idea.  At noon time and chore time, too.

So, while I was waiting for my wet ingredients to come to room temperature, I decided to get the dry ingredients ready.

So I sifted and measured and weighed and had everything ready. I planned on making the white cupcakes first, because I wouldn't have to wash the bowl and paddle to make the chocolate cupcakes.

Yes, I got them mixed up. Wet ingredients for the white cupcakes and dry ingredients for the chocolate.

I baked them anyway.

They are delicious, but too soft.  So I am remaking the chocolate ones.

I'm up, I'm up - at least five hours of sleep, maybe a bit more. Might go back to bed.
