cupcakes

Now, you may be asking yourself, why cupcakes? Let me tell you. Besides the fact that I love cupcakes for their novelty and brilliance, and the fact that I have served them at every social event I’ve hosted during my entire life, I find that young women are like cupcakes.  We were all made from similar batches, but the Baker made us to be individuals. We may have similarities in flavor, maybe more to one than another, but we were all made to be unique.  We’re sweet. We can be simple. We can be complex.  Cupcakes bring a little bit of joy, even if just for a moment.  Women have this encouragement and endearing factor towards the people they care about.  They can bring joy.  I also think women resemble cupcakes, because, for the most part, they were born to be in social settings.  Sure, there are those cupcakes that are made just for you and your chick flick, but most the time they come out for parties.  Women are social beings.  It’s finding the balance between being in the world, but not of it that is our challenge.  We have to find the ability to be at the party bringing joy, but reflecting the capabilities of the Baker through our flavor.
