Artist date #1 - Cupcakes

I've started with a book-course called "The Artist's Way" (by Julia Cameron). It's a twelve-week writing course directed to anyone who wants to live a more creative life but doesn't know how - hence the word "blocked artist". I feel like that book is talking directly to me; it's almost scary. I can really, really recommend this course to anyone who wants to be creative.

Every week, I take myself on an "artist date". For the first week, I decided to decorate cupcakes - something that my inner artist child loves to do. Cupcakes are so fun and cute and lovable.

I set out to the supermarket and got some supplies: Powdered sugar, butter, vanilla extract, food coloring and of course, sprinkles.

Since I don't have an oven to bake cupcakes with, I bought some madeleines to frost. I beat the frosting by hand. I frosted them using a plastic bag that I cut up. Voilà!
