There is nothing as cozy as a blizzard! Especially when it turns into a sleepover! When it became clear that the snow was just going to pile up, Katie got permission from her mom to have us sleep over, and we all called our homes to have our parents drop off supplies when they got back from work. One by one the bags arrived, and we settled in for the long haul. We spent the start of the afternoon by eating grilled cheese and tomato soup, and then we began baking. We owed Mona her regular order of white-on-white mini cupcakes for tomorrow, plus the two kinds for the holiday boutique and the prebaking of the Snowball Express cupcakes for Sunday. We worked like a well-oiled machine and somehow got into one of our silly cupcake games as we worked. In this one, which we call Make It Their Own, someone calls out a person’s name and we all have to come up with a cupcake that sounds like them. For example, Katie called “Mrs. Wexler!,” who is our school nurse. She is supercalm, supersoothing, but a little dull.
