Cupcake Love


Last night after class I decided to do something sweet for my boyfriend, who is always doing sweet things for me. I truly believe my bf has a heart of gold and deserves so much more than me, but I am lucky enough to be the one he chooses to be with (for whatever reason, I'm still not sure). Since the bf started his new job it's been difficult on both of us. He works 9 pm until 5 am so I see him for about 4 seconds in the morning and an hour and a half in the evenings. But I have class on Wednesday and Thursday nights so essentially I don't see him for two whole days! Also, he has only had one day off since he started. Great for the paycheck, not so great for the relationship! Ha!

I decided to make him cupcakes. I wanted to write out the letters I (heart) U on 3 of them, but was too lazy to make a different colored frosting. So I ended up only using the chocolate frosting. I jerry-rigged some homemade toppers (pictured above) so the bf would know that these were made especially for him! I only had one frosting tip because my others have been temporarily misplaced (i.e., lost somewhere in my very messy pantry) so it was definitely challenging to come up with designs. Oh well, I think they turned out cute and will portray my message perfectly.
