Costco MEGA Flower Cupcakes

6 of the most floral cupcakes I've ever seen are huge, bright, and come from Costco! (One of the best stores in the USA and possibly farther) The cake is really good, but the frosting isn't frosting. It's still good, but its more of, I want to say, maybe a chocolate syrup topping that had been hardend a twitch? The flower topping was frosting, and didn't melt when it was stuck in a REALLY warm car for about 3 hours. Now, in the family refriderator, there is one and a half pieces left. I wish they just kept magicaly reappering. Hmm..... 
The cupcake is covered by the flower...

ISNT IT HUGER THAN HUGGEST

Camp Sherman

The amazing Orange County Girl Scout summer camp called Camp Sherman is literally the-best camp I ever went to. There were so much activities, like swamping, canoeing, swimming, gardening, rock climbing, horseback riding, ect., ect, and not to mention the food! It wasn't camp-mush-food that you think of, like dry cake or uncooked eggs, it was really good! (Not just because we were really hungry.) But on to the cupcake part- On the last full day of camp, there was somthing called "all-camp-day".  My friend, Bre, and I chose our two sessions together. First, we went to the garden as The Singing Murderers. There were alot of weeds, and so we dug them up. (That's the "Murderers" part.) The person in charge told us that plants grew faster if music was playing. So Bre and I sang to the plants while we killed the weeds. It was fun! Next, we went to arts and crafts. There, we were given plastic mini ceral boxesto create something out of. All the people there made anuimals out of them, except me and Bre. We made- What you would think- Cupcakes. That's right- Cupcakes. (Of course) :)

For Goodness Cupcakery

Last night I went to the For Goodness Cakes for the second time.  My mom had the Celebration, my dad had their Carrot, and my brother and I had their (wonderful!) "Blue" Velvet. Like my brother did the last time we were there, my mom liked the Celebration cake, but said that the frosting was super rich. My dad gulped his down gladly, and said that it was a nice taste. The Blue Velvet was exactly like a Red Velvet, except it was blue. No difference in taste at all. And it was a very good cupcake. It had the perfect balance of moist-and-rich-but-not-so-much-that-you-can't-eat-it taste. I also loved the little blue star sprinkle. It tasted like frosting, and it was strong enough to hold itself up at 90 degrees on the cupcake, but soft enough so it doesn't brake your teeth when you bite into it. Again, you can visit them at http://www.forgoodnesscakeshb.com/index.php. And remember to try out their special flavor, Hummingbird!
