Cupcake Disaster

Last Friday, Episcopal's football team was playing in a scrimmage against Tara. As a cheerleader, I am required to be at all football events. After the game, there was going to be a celebratory dinner that the cheerleader's were invited to go to. The Junior Varsity squad was required to bring deserts. At the last minute, I realized that I had not made or bought anything yet. So, I rushed into my pantry desperate at this point for anything that would taste good. Finally, I found cupcake mix. I started gathering all of the ingredients, and started to follow the recipe. Everything went well, and I put the cupcakes in the oven. After the cupcakes were done, I spread the icing on the cupcakes and tried a bite of my master piece for myself. I took my first bite, and immediately spit it out. The icing was old and had been expired for two years. I was so upset! I had worked so hard and this is what I get?!

My mom found me in the kitchen and instantly knew something was wrong. I explained to her what happened, and surprisingly she was proud of me; even though the cupcakes did not work out. We decided that we need to go to the store and let the professionals handle this task. We drove to Whole Foods and picked out a delicious Oreo Cake. The woman that worked in the bakery section wrote "Go Knights!" on it with blue and yellow icing. It looked awesome!
