I'm looking forward to baking cupcakes in my new kitchen. In my new place, I gave my kitchen a pink, red and white cupcake theme. I printed off cupcake pictures and recipes and hung them on the wall. I made different cupcake shaped items for holding kitchen items. All my curtains, towels and aprons are cupcakes and/or cakes and dessert themed. I found all kinds of vintage birthday cards with cupcakes and Betty Boop and I framed them as pictures on the walls. Now, all I need is to make my first batch of delicious cupcakes.
