I think happiness can be found in cupcakes. The best part about baking them is being the official (self-designated) taste-tester. Or maybe licking the bowl (is that gross?). These are the things that one contemplates when living alone…I’m thinking I need a roommate (to share such yummy desserts with , of course).

On another note, in preparation for a certain upcoming sangria party, and in the absence of contribution from certain Spanish friends, we are currently in the middle of a rigorous sangria-testing protocol. Once a final recipe has been found and approved, a party shall be held and of course, the recipe posted here. Suggestions? Our newest, most exciting, ingredient: cinnamon sticks.
