Day 193

I made some cupcakes tonight from scratch because we only had one egg and box mixes all require three. I think they turned out fine. They apparently needed more vanilla flavor because Dad couldn't tell what flavor they were. They did taste sugar flavored to me, so I can't complain, though vanilla is never a flavor to me since I can't smell.

My mom asked me to make them because our home teacher is coming tomorrow. Personally I feel like perhaps my birthday should take a little precedence over inviting people over, but whatever.

I'm not particularly satisfied with either of the pictures I took, I didn't frame them very well, I cut things off awkwardly. Our counters are so covered in things that it's hard to take an uncluttered picture but I'd have been better off cropping to just what I wanted rather than getting in so close. I finished frosting the rest so it was too late to take another picture when I finally checked them.
