New Blog Name?

Not like anybody reads this (AEB the numeral counter I added --->).. but I'm thinking about changing the name of my blog. I was informed that "Potted Meat" isn't too appealing to a blog site that has a lot to do with cupcakes! What do you think? Any name suggestions?

Woot!

So there's this website... it's called woot.
And....
It only sells one thing per day.
BUT
What it sells is usually really cheap.
Cheap as in price, not quality!
There are also links to spin-offs sites like shirt.woot and kids.woot (my new personal favorite).
It's definitely worth checking out daily.
Every now & then they have a "woot off" where they sell multiple things a day.
And also seldomly they have the famous "bag of crap".
It's rumored that people have received KILLER bags of crap (we're talking t.v.'s here...)
Shipping is always $5
And...
I think you should check it out!

Very Vanilla with Chocolate Buttercream

I got bored today and wanted something sweet. If there had been another option in my pantry, I would not have made these because believe me, I did not want the dirty dishes that came along with it!



















This was the first time I had ever made chocolate icing. It turned out very very good. Don't ask for the recipe because I free-styled it.

Everyone else has all these cool props when photographing their cupcakes. I used a plate that came with Aubree's play food set. Perfect size!

This is how cupcakes were meant to taste!
