Strawberry Shortcake Cupcakes

In junior high, for a brief time, I was inwards an all-girl band.

We weren�t great.

It all started because i of my friends began playing the drums, so, obviously, nosotros all had to start playing instruments. In our piddling group, apart from our drummer, nosotros had i who loved to sing, i who had previously learned the piano, i was willing to larn bass, in addition to I had dabbled alongside the guitar.

For a time, nosotros were actually into it, in addition to had band practise in addition to everything. The appeal eventually faded away, particularly afterwards nosotros heard ourselves on photographic television camera in addition to realized nosotros were missing a cardinal quality:

Talent.

I channeled my disappointment of non reaching stardom inwards the musical basis into baking. Baking Strawberries in addition to Cream Cupcakes, Berry Naked Cakes, Strawberry Blondies, in addition to these super delish Strawberry Shortcake Cupcakes (among other things, of course).

My mightiness to bake far outweighs my musical gifts. #shocking
