Inspired by Kirsten's cupcakes


Once upon a time, like before I moved home, my mother always celebrated my birthday by making me cherry chip cupcakes with cherry flavored icing. Because I was born so close to Valentine's Day, this tradition was normed in my life, including the 14 years she mailed cake mixes to me in Kentucky to bake my own birthday treats.

On Saturday, celebrating Kirsten's birthday, her friends brought a tray of gourmet cupcakes from a place in Camillus. They were delicious and it inspired me to learn about the history of the cupcake.

It also inspired me to find this monster cupcake which I'm sending after my mom to bite her in the nose for not baking me cupcakes this year.

Chomp.
