hi!

I have my own blog! I feel so hip. Isn't this what all the cool kids are doing these days?

It all started last weekend when I made a trip to Borders to use my 40% off coupon. I love a bargain. I had been playing around with the idea of cooking more and trying out a new recipe each week, so I was creeping around the vegetarian cookbook section. There it was, so cute and tiny... "Vegan Cupcakes Takeover the World". The photos alone would have sold me, but when I noticed the foreword was penned by Sara Quin (of Tegan and Sara) it sealed the deal.

So, here I am. I never fancied myself a baker. Nor have I ever even had much of a sweet tooth. But I am trying out new things and am stoked to bake my way through this little book. I'm preparing for plenty of failed attempts, but hopefully along the way I will learn a thing or two and feed some hungry co-workers while I'm at it.
