If I could only eat one food for the rest of my life, it would be cake.  The only problem is that after having a slice, you have a whole cake left over, left to relentlessly tempt and taunt you for the following week.  Your dilemma is to either throw away your beautiful and yummy creation or apologize to your behind for the extra “junk in the trunk” coming its way. 

                That’s why cupcakes are so great.  Not only are they still just as delicious as cake but they are infinitely more practical.  You can’t give away a third of a cake to someone while walking down the hallway at school, but you can certainly hand them a cupcake.

                Usually, before I bring cupcakes to one of my classes, I make the announcement on Facebook the night before and, suddenly, I become very popular.  I even find myself promising more cupcakes than I have time to make. 

                It’s all worth it though, because I’m doing something I love and I’m buttering up my classmates and teachers via their stomachs, making them very happy.
