Let's just start off by saying I am NOT a creative person. Oh, I can copy like a master sometimes, but I do not come up with great artistic ideas. For example, I buy cupcake cookbooks as "coffee table" books to look at. My friend Tricia and my sisters-in-law are the ones that would actually use them.
Well, I signed up to make cupcakes for Teacher Appreciation Week at my kids' elementary school and I decided I was going to give it a go. To make a long story short, since I am short on time - I have to get said cupcakes to the school - I rocked them!! And I went one further. The "lemon meringue" cupcakes? Totally my idea! Woo hoo! To quote the Winter Warlock in one of my favorite movies, "I'm not such a loser after all!" :-)
Marin just let me know that I failed to give her any credit. She was my M&Mer, helping me put in the "berries" and "lemon filling". Couldn't have done it without her. Sorry, sweetie!
And here is the evolution:
So cute! Is that real meringue on there? I wouldn't even know how to do that. Hats off to you.
