Cupcakes!

I saw this cupcake calendar at the mall this week and thought it would be fun in the kitchen.  I had already told the kids I'd be trying to make some fun cupcakes every month for the monthly church potluck.

Here is the first set for the year.

These were the January ones from the calendar.  I'll also be using my Hello, Cupcake! and What's New, Cupcake? books for ideas this year.  I'm excited to have a good excuse to try out some new cupcakes, and also glad that my kids will not be the only ones eating them (sorry moms at church, I'll try to do some that are not so loaded with candy.)
