museum walk

my parents live in the kalorama/dupont circle neighborhood, and its just lovely there! take advantage of today's lower humidity and go on the dupont/kalorama museum tour! all ten venues are free: i am walking, but there's a free shuttle also.

hello, cupcake!

i made cupcakes today: first time ever! they turned out great: there are 2 of 12 left. i tried some fun flavors. i made lemon cake with lime frosting; fresh strawberry with strawberry icing; caramel with chocolate, and toffee with toffee frosting. delicious. please dont tell my friend penny, though: she owns hello cupcake at dupont circle and makes the best cupcakes, ever. much lighter and fluffier than this novice can bake with the yummiest icings around!
