never underestimate the power of a pregnant womens craving

yesterday i made hungarian mushroom soup. very yummy, very creamy, huge chucks of mushroom with paprika and dill. it was my first soup of the winter. i need to make more soup. i have a potato kale that's yummy too. anyway, around 7ish, i started to crave a particular item.

cupcakes. why cupcakes, i have no idea. i never eat cupcakes...i think i'm going to blame monaca, since she and will were talking about eating cupcakes the other day...but whatever the reason, i was craving them. i ran upstairs because i thought i had a leftover box of organic cake from our wedding...yeah, our wedding...anyway, it wasn't cake...it was frosting. but that didn't stop me, which brings me to my title.

did i just go for a bowl of ice-cream? maybe a bowl of cereal? NO. even after i made a large supper from scratch...even after i new i didn't have a quick way to make cupcakes, i still made them. i made them from scratch even! chocolate cupcakes. i did use the organic boxed frosting, which was surprisingly too sweet, so i've been enjoying just the cupcakes. they're lovely. i've never made cupcakes before. and i did have a small mishap with over filling the cupcake tins. i'm used to making muffins! muffins don't fluff like cupcakes do...so i have a burnt layer of cupcake matter on the bottom of the oven. oh well, it was worth it. the cupcakes were yummy!!!

and what did i have for lunch today? hungarian mushroom soup and a cupcake! don't worry, i'm eating my veggies right now as a snack...ahh the power of cravings...
