Snow Day, Cupcakes, and Giveaway


yesterday we had a massive snowstorm here.  okay, it wasn't massive where i was but in other parts of jersey it was.
we got 10 inches, which is still a lot.

i stayed inside all day long watching movies and baking cupcakes.  it was amazing.

i watched:
the invention of lying
{funny, but dragged on a bit}

little miss sunshine 
{because i'm apparently the only one who never saw it}

and 

whip it
{which was AMAZING.  so inspiring.  loved it}

all images google images except first one, taken by me

then, i baked these cupcakes, which are again from martha.

that's the muffin recipe.
to make the glaze, mix 3 T milk and 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar.

oh and i would recommend adding more cinnamon to the topping to make it less floury.
however, they are so good.
i want to add cocoa powder to the batter next time to mix it up a bit!

i haven't updated you on any cute giveaways that are out there in awhile; here is one i'm loving right now:

Christa is hosting an awesome giveaway including an amazing vintage camera at her blog
{i really love that camera.  and the headband.  and the photos.  okay, i love this giveaway}


so i didn't go outside at all yesterday and take pics of the snow... but i'm heading out in a little bit so i'll post some later if i get a chance :)

xoxo
