Oh mel !!
Meemawfish Im going to try them even after the bomb/flop/$#%$#$$%% I had with the carrot ones
Well I might have to try the lemon ones then. Everybody is making me feel bad for not trying them.
Oh come on (bad meemaw) what you are talking about (loser)? I'm sure (wussy) no one here thinks (degenerate) any less of you (bad cupcake lady) for not trying it (make them now)!
And they think I am laughing at myself here in the office... Quit it Mel, I can't get any work done.
I want to make the lemon cc's but have you seen the price of lemons? I looked today and they were $1.18 a piece. I'll have to go over to Sam's and see if I can get them by the bunch. You can't even get a hand on lemon juice. The stores say something happened in South America and they can't get them.
Okay Mel don't make Meemaw come and wash your mouth or should I say fingers with soap.
Fiddle I am going to make them but my daughter just called with the verdict on the carrot versus the coconut ones I did from Martha Stewart and so far the coconut is winning. I'm waiting on my sister's paper to let me know what they think. I wasn't really doing a competion between the two but I guess that's what they felt like doing. Now they want to know what I'm making next and the paper inserters want to know why they don't get any. I think I've started something. I took like a dozen cuppies over there at one time. I think the carrot was my fault because I don't own a food processor so I tried grating them and I might have not grated them enough. They said they could really taste alot of carrot and they didn't like that.
I had chopped my carrots in the mini chopper and it worked great ! but yes those coconut ones are great . I made the almond joy ones ( without the almnd piece on top )

So, the new adage is: If life hands you lemons, sell them for profit!
How many can we sell ya Mel ? Shipping is on you !
Oh man, sorry, I've promised all my lemon business to the adorable little girl scout next door. Shucks... sorry about that.
Has anyone else noticed a lemon hike in there area ?
I have not looked lately Well if they cost more maybe they will be extra lemony !
lol, that was funny.
I went to Smart and Final, I read somewhere on here that they sell bettercream and a product similar called Pastry First (or something like that) thats basically the same thing, and guess what, they had it! They were out of the vanilla bettercream, only chocolate, so I bought the Pastry First instead. I'm making a ton of cupcakes this weekend, and am deffinantly going to try some of Mel's combonations.
I'm excited!
I finally made my cupcakes! Didi them while I was waiting on Gustav. Still not too bad yet, thank goodness. I hope everyone that was in his path is ok.
My cupcakes turned out great. I cooked them at 325 for 21 mins. They rose perfectly and taste great!! My husband, who will not eat carrots, even ate some. I filled them and iced them, just used a big tip. This one is a 5 out of 5 for this recipe, for me.
Here is the link to my picture.

I'm glad they turned out well for you! I think you might have your comment box off. There was no where to comment when I looked at your PIC. They look scrumptious!
paddlegirl14.. They look amazing!
Would have left you a comment but your comment button must be off ?
Thanks so much!!! Those are the first cupcakes I have done since I was a kid! I was completely excited that they turned out so well.
OOPS!! Didn't even realize that I didn't have the comment box on. Got it fixed! Thanks ladies, for all the great comments and for letting me know about the commet box!
