Dear Pacman Cupcakes,


pacman cupcakes, originally uploaded by hello naomi.

You are awesome. I might designate you the greatest cupcakes in all the land!

I have always wanted to get into creating super awesome cupcakes / cakes, but usually I just watch other people make them on tv. Mostly because I am too busy eating cupcakes to ever take the time needed to create marvels of sugar and icing to adorn them. Like, yeah, unicorns would've looked awesome on that cake, but it was too busy DIGESTING IN MY STOMACH.

Obviously, during my random blogging hiatus, I became classier ... and decided to break my AWOL awesomeness by blogging about what really matters in life: cupcakes. Good game, World Hunger. Better luck next time, Global Warming.

Reminds me of that classic observation by Clausewitz: "Cupcakes have made war obsolete. Probably, I don't know. Jesus, you try to make a classic observation with a sugar buzz."

the black icing DOES look like it was made out of oil and meltable plastics, but overall... come on. I'd still eat it.

And Clausewitz was very wise... very wise indeed. I am thinking that perhaps I will make cupcakes today! And bring them into work so everyone can feel like crashing in the afternoon and napping amongst the shrubbery in a sugary, wonderful haze.

ImageHi. My name is Sarah
and I live by the sea. I like pirates and vikings and my audio cassette tape player. I am 25 years old and pretty much covered in sand all the time. Also, I like cookies. My profile.

ImageHey Sarah, what are ye listening to?
Lots and lots o' stuff, like St. Germain's "So Flute" and "Ghosts" by Ladytron. I can't believe Robyn is out with new stuff and it doesn't make me want to show her love by jabbing rusted forks into my eyes. It's actually really catchy and kind of endearing. I have been looking up the songs from So You Think You Can Dance all year, too, because it's all awesome and at heart, I'm still a spandexed little dancer ready to punch Annie in the face and show Daddy Warbucks a thing or two about tap musicals.

ImageI'M READING:
Walking Dead:

    Frigging awesome. One of the best books about the Zombocalypse I've ever read (one of the only good books about the Zombpocalypse I've ever read). I think there's something about zombies that is so hard to construe via text ... I mean, honestly, you can only use the word "purtrid" so much, and the visual, awesome aid of comics really helps.

ImageI'M SEEING:
Quarantine, a movie that's kind of the equivalent to being on the Disney spinning teacup ride, except, also, there are RABID ZOMBIES ON BOARD. Honestly, I missed quite a bit of this movie because I spent a good portion of it with my head nestled into my boyfriend's armpit attempting not to vomit. The camera movement is, at times, insanely choppy and all over the place, and those of you prone to motion sickness, you might want to skip this one. I'd give it about 2 1/2 stars out of 5, because it's decent -- I'd even watch it again if I could keep the room from spinning.

ImageBOOK CLUB!:
The Kite Runner. I love this book. It wasn't necessarily a book I'd choose to read (these days I appear to be more interested in books geared towards teenage girls.), but I'm so glad I did. Beautiful writing. Next choice... I'm going to volunteer the Bell Jar because IT'S THE BEST BOOK EVER.
