The first step was finding a good carrot cake cupcake recipe. When it comes to baking, I don’t trust myself
without one. I headed to pinterest.com
and within three minutes I had a fairly effortless recipe with easy -to-track-down
ingredients.
I went to Wal-Mart, picked up the ingredients, and raced
back home. I love baking!
I had two problems while making these cupcakes. For one, I needed three cups of grated
carrots. That means me, the most uncoordinated
person you’ve ever met, had to sit down and rub carrots back and forth on
really sharp cheese grater. I did, in
fact, grate my finger quite a few times. Luckily, I had Angry Bird Band-Aids!
The next problem I encounter happened when I was ready to do
the frosting. I had all the ingredients,
but instead of sixteen ounces of cream cheese, I only had one eight ounce
package. I called up my mom and she told
me to just keep going. The cupcakes
would be fine.
And they were!
So, tomorrow, when I go into work to pick up my paycheck, I’ll
drop off these cupcakes for my manager and co-workers. Hopefully, I’ll make someone’s day! If there is one thing I’ve learned about
being a waitress is that your attitude really makes or breaks your night. You can make some good money in tips if you
are in a good mood!

The last thing I wanted to mention today was a video about Pediatric
Cancer, http://www.causes.com/causes/789392-powering-the-possible/actions/1672930?utm_campaign=browse. On this link, it is said that “pediatric
cancer is the leading cause of disease-related death for children in the U.S.
between the ages of 1-14.” I know that I
did a post on children’s cancer awareness earlier this month, but this issue is
a big deal! Watch the video and you will
not only become informed about this kind of cancer, but Dell will donate one
dollar to a pediatric cancer research center. Currently, $36,457 has been
raised. The goal is $50,000.
It literally takes 2
minutes and five seconds. That’s it.
Please watch this
video. Every little bit helps.
