After

Baking dozens of

Cupcakes this week, I've learned a few Life Lessons:

 

Delight in the process as much as the product.

 

Each ingredient is as important as the next.

 

Forget about the clock,

Go with the flow,

Have fun.

 

Improvise

Joyously (and cover your mistakes with frosting).

 

Keep working until the

Last bowl is clean and dry and back on the shelf.

 

Measure ingredients with precision, but do

Not forget that there are times when

Observation is more

Powerful than

Quantifiable amounts or

Results.

 

Stop

Tasting the frosting when buttercream becomes

Unremarkable.

 

Value your

Work enough to make the

eXtra effort worth the time

You put into the project. Be

Zealous, but never a zealot.
