Not the hurricane. The muse of this blog is not of the old fashioned offering-baked-goods-to-placate-the-weather-gods persuasion - though if she knew of some way to ease the tension building in the Hayward fault by lubricating the tectonic plates with buttercream frosting, I'm sure she would give it a try. The pictured cupcakes were for our friend Katrina, who took them to a baby shower. What I was not aware of until informed by Lisa was that she drove from South SF to the nickel-dime to pick them up, then took them to Millbrae for the shower. I'm pretty sure she did this because, in addition to liking cupcakes, she really, really loathes the environment.
Katrina is very cool, despite her eco-hating ways (and not just because she praised Lisa's cupcakes effusively). This can be deduced from the fact that (i) she has a baby who can barf on cue (see attached photo - not taken after cupcake consumption, as far as I'm aware, anyway), (ii) she has an encyclopedic knowledge of early 90's hip hop, and can rap large parts of "Mind's playin' tricks on me" by the Geto Boys, and (iii) she attended the recent NKOTB reunion concert and enjoyed it in a non-ironic manner. Good things all.
