Happy Birthday Michelle

My beautiful friend Michelle celebrates her birthday today. I made these for her by request. Tasty vanilla cake loaded with Oreo chunks and an Oreo at the bottom, topped with white chocolate frosting and an Oreo. My version of Cookies n' Cream.

How it all began...

What's in a name? A lot actually. When I was in elementary school I realized all of my friends had nicknames and I was left out of the loop. I told my dad about my dilemma so he asked me what I wanted to be called. I gave some thought to it and told him I wanted to be called Scooter...which I originally spelled it Scotter. Thus when I needed a name for my creations, Scooter was without a doubt my only option.

How do cupcakes tie into all of this? My mother is the one who taught me how to cook and bake. I would stand in our kitchen and beg her to teach me what she was doing, most of the time she did and she was also scared when I tried. As I got older she realized I was getting the hang of this. She would let me start cooking meals for our family on my own; of course she would chime in and give me her opinion on how she would have done it but for the most part I did it all on my own. When I moved away to college I really got to explore how to cook on my own. My roommates and boyfriend would be my testers and always gave me their honest opinions. I love cooking and baking all different things, I don't discriminate between pasta and pot roast, pies and chocolate. But most of all, I love cupcakes. For no real reason why other than the sheer love of baking an individualized miniature cake with the perfect amount of icing to make someone smile.
