Homemade Oreos

I have an awesome rolley chair in my office at work.

It is cushioned and has one of those nice levers that can make me look really tall behind my computer. Sometimes I push the lever just for the thrill of sinking. My life is pretty exciting.

The best part of the chair might be the wheels though. I can roll from my computer to my coworker's computer in 2 seconds and zip back in no time at all. I roll from the cabinets to the phone to the candy jar all day.

Yesterday I was in a normal chair and forgot that it didn't have wheels. Turns out you can't roll on 4 legs. You might fall.

Anyways.... I don't really love oreos. I know, I'm crazy. I like them in milkshakes and once in a while I snack on them, but they just aren't my favorites. But when a friend scores really well on the DAT, you make them whatever their little heart desires- in this case, homemade oreos.

Strawberry Lemonade Cupcakes

Girls are crazy.
I am sure you agree.

 If you're a boy, you think girls are crazy because they are sometimes cute and flirty and then frustrating and psycho.

If you are a girl, you understand that only girls stay up until midnight waiting for a roommate to get home so you can all scream about her impending engagement and immediately start online shopping for bridesmaids dresses, even if it is 1:30am.
This is of course purely hypothetical. I was absolutely not up until the wee hours of the morning discussing lace dresses and problematic busts. That would be just crazy.

Anyway... these cupcakes are my new baby. They are practically perfect, at least taste wise. They don't look quite as wonderful as they should, but I will work on that next time. If you have some lemons and strawberries lying around you should probably make these. If you don't have said items, you should definitely go buy some and then make these.

And then share them, because people will like you if you do. This recipe made enough to feed- my roommates + a boyfriend, my neighbor and her niece and nephew, 3 of my coworkers, the lucky person who happened to walk by my desk, my new favorite belay partner, and the 5 boys next door. If you do the math, that's 17 people who should technically be my new best friends.

Love,

Wendy

Hi, I'm Wendy

Hi. I'm Wendy.

 I love to bake and cook and I love to give away the food I make. Good thing too, because otherwise I might weigh 300 pounds. 

I love finding a fun recipe, or not finding a recipe and just making one up instead. I like wearing cute aprons and blasting music while I cook. 

I like feeding my roommates, my brother, the boys who live in my backyard, my coworkers and once in a while a lucky stranger. 

The recipes I make always feed more than one, so if you try them out, please share the love! 

Love, Wendy
