Cupcake shout-out on RealSimple

RealSimple.com has a piece up (by Kim O'Donnel, and linked in from CNN) about how cooking has changed her life. I love this snippet:




"The day after the Virginia Tech shootings, in April 2007, when my community in northern Virginia was shaken with grief, I found myself baking a batch of lemon cupcakes with milk-chocolate frosting. As I admired their glistening tops, I couldn't help but wonder: Could a tiny cupcake make the world feel like a more tender place, even for one bite?

As I delivered the cupcakes to my neighbors, the smiles on their faces were proof that, yes, indeed it could."



Beautiful, right?
