cupcakes

I need to do more blogs so i get better at this so here goes; As I mentioned yesterday it was my daughters birthday and I was making her cupcakes.  This recipe is my mothers and has been made hundreds of times.  It is the go to recipe for every school function.  My kids love it and always ask for it for birthdays .  They also freeze well.  Frost them put them in the freezer in zip locks and take out when needed.  My daughter turned 21 a milestone birthday but the highlight was my younger son with autism wrote a 160 page science fiction novel dedicated it to her and gave her the first copy.  He has been writing stores unbeknownst to me and this his first novel.  I think she was really touched.
