Lemon Cupcakes!

20120424-175342.jpg

These were sooo good. Light and fluffy, a little sticky and super lemon fresh! The texture was almost like angel food cake but still had a little more everyday cake to it. Not sure if that made any sense, but they were yummy. Next time I will do it as the recipe said and not use wrappers, but since I was bringing these to a BBQ I figured it would be easier to have the paper on them. Oh and the glaze was optional, but I highly recommend it as it really kicked up the lemon zing! Recipe from Cupcakes! By Elinor Klivans. The pumpkin spice ones are also super good from this book.

Made some pizza again, and this time it was a nice and thin crispy crust! That is my favorite kind so am super happy it worked at home.

In other news I have been knitting a bit on a poncho. Not the quick pace of old but it is coming along and should be ready to wear come next fall :) I still really do like to knit so am happy I have started it up again even if it is not that often.20120419-092211.jpg
