Slap Bets

So is everyone else only placing slap bets after last night? I would've taken the ten really hard slaps all at once instead of the five slaps at any time, any place. I like to get things over and done with.
I'm feeling conflicted about this whole blog thing. I think of all these things I want to write about, but when I actually find the time to sit down and write, I have second thoughts about putting everything out there for strangers to read and write about nothing at all half the time. Finding the time to update is becoming more and more difficult. I may just take the whole thing down, but for now, I'll continue to write.

I'm still dating Circus Boy. Just dating, nothing serious. As you know, we've gone to the circus, but some other adventures we've gone on have been interesting. We went to the butterfly exhibit at the Museam of Science and were the youngest people in our tour group by a good thirty years which was a lot more fun than you would think, went to a really bad haunted house where I fell down a flight of stairs, we've seen a few movies, met at Starbucks a few Sunday mornings, seen a few movies and completed a book of Mad Libs. It's getting to the point where I think he's taking it more seriously than I am. This usually happens in relationships, one person is a few steps ahead of the other person. I hope he'll slow down and let me catch up because I do like him and think with time I could get to where he is.

I've become obsessed with baking cupcakes. I was craving a Magnolia Bakery cupcake a month ago and since I live in Boston not in NYC I had no way to kill the craving. That was until I remembered that I had seen their cupcake recipe online once. I consulted the bible (google) and lo and behold it was out there for the world to see! I baked a batch that night and since then I've made red velvet cupcakes, s'mores cupcakes, carrot cake cupcakes, peanut butter cup cupcakes, strawberry filled cupcakes. The best thing about cupcakes is that one is perfect for killing a craving and you can give the rest to your friends! I'm bringing vanilla cupcakes to Thanksgiving but when I frost them I'm going to use chocolate frosting and candy corns to make them look like turkeys!! I'm also obsessed with this recipe I got from Kelly at the Boston Vegetarian Meetup:
3 peaches cut into bite sized quarters
6 oz of Mozzarella Cheese cut into smaller sized morsels
1 cup of torn basil (you can substitute spinach or any dark leafy green)
mix ingredients under a drizzle of Extra Virgin Olive Oil to your liking add a half tspn of salt and even less pepper. Yum!!! The next meetup is at Buddha's Delight on Dec 12th if y'all are interested. It's a lot of fun!

Well, I guess that's it for now. Song of the day is "Undeniable" by Mat Kearney
