The Perfect Housewife

I caved yesterday..

Since i've been on my diet (5 weeks now) i've been wanting to make cupcakes.
But besides the fact i'm not allowed to eat them, i also can't taste the batter and so on.
So it was absolutely nonsense for me to bake cupcakes.

At least that was until my collegue brought Marble cake in to work for her birthday, and asked me to cut them into slices.
The smell made me drool (not on the cake, i promise)
And as i read Bakerella's Blog and the Retro Bakery Blog i really wanted to bake.
I went home, sat myself behind the computer and thought ..What do i care.
So i got on my coat and rushed to the supermarket.
And raided the bake section.
Now it was officially time to bake.
I had promised myself that after i was done baking i HAD to clean the kitchen (see last entry to why i had to clean). So i cleaned my counter first and got everything ready.
I decided to bake chocolat cupcakes with chunks of white chocolat inside.
And vanilla Cupcakes with chunks of dark chocolat inside.
It turned out i didn't have enough vanilla batter so i stole a bit from the chocolat one before i added the cocoa powder. But i did'nt put in the chunks of chocolat.

So i ended up with.:

-6 Chocolat cupcakes with Chunks of white chocolat
-4 Vanilla Cupcakes with chunks of dark chocolat &
-2 Vanilla cupcakes sliced in half and filled with strawberry sauce.

i made chocolat frosting for the vanilla cupcakes and vanilla frosting for the chocolat ones.
On the "plain" cupcakes (with the strawberry inside) i wrote i love you with special "frosting" pens.

And as i wasn't allowed to eat them my dear sweet boyfriend was the chosen one.
But..as he is coming down with the flue he didn't see himself eating all 12 and made me make my co-workers very happy this morning.
I took 8 with me (i left the "i love you" ones at home, + 1 chocolat and a vanilla one)

My collegues were really happy with my baking fit
And asked me when my next fit would be LOL

So i started thinking (i really shouldn't do that, by the way) as my BF loves the Subway cookies
That maybe i could make those for him. And maybe some doughnuts too.
And as my sister in-law is turning 33 next week i thought, why not bake her eclairs.
And i want to make fondant.

So the girl who isn't allowed to eat it, is going to make enough gooedies to feed a small third world country.
And the BF wants pancakes with bacon and syrop for dinner.
I mean what is he trying to do, make me drool to death or something..??
But i promise i'll be strong i won't touch the stuff, i'll stick to my chicken and veggie stir fry.
although i did find myself stick my finger in my mouth after finishing the cupcakes, and thinking oh no you didn't. but i did. and i loved it. only licked one finger though.

i have pictures and will post them later
