Isn't there a really famous cupcake store in New York? You could visit that and do a taste test comparison with your own (I'm sure) award winning cupcake recipes :)

LA LUNA! (I saw it on my first date with my now-husband. And there was a full moon that night!!!)

First of all, it’s wonderful to see your beautiful smiling face! Second, “harrowing” is my new go-to word to describe our current environment, thank you to your blessed mother. Finally, The Princess Bride is my escapist movie; scarcely a day goes by without an applicable quote from that movie entering into family conversation. I have a feeling we’re in for a marathon, not a sprint. Be gentle with yourself. ❤️
