The Freshman 15 of Cupcaketry

I must have been crazy when I volunteered to make cupcakes for my cousin Tori's wedding.  I thought, how hard could it be?  Well, It wasn't hard, just extremely time consuming.  But in true me fashion I had a blast doing it.  I loved doing something uncomfortable, something that I didn't exactly know how to accomplish, but in the end, ROCKED.  Maybe saying that my cupcakes "rocked"  is a little prideful, but I tried the cupcakes...lots of them and I thought they were "rocked" worthy.  As I buttoned up my jeans today, I had to admit that I tried too many cupcakes, about 5LBS worth of cupcakes too many.  So while Im now swearing off cupcakes, cookies, cake, and sugar for at least the next two months, I thouroughly enjoyed several weeks of cupcake heaven. 
I am now a pro at making
