Slayed by a look,
a scolding glance.
I will defend-
I never forsook
a delicious chance
taken to the end.
I wouldn’t brook
the chocolate tempest
its pretend.
Half crazed,
it’s you; you that I crave.

Chocolate cupcakes with espresso Swiss meringue butter-cream
proper music for baking…
A delicious looking poem as much as your cakes.
why, thank you.
Love love love, the music, the poem, the image of you, and of course those insanely beautiful cupcakes — good lawd! And how do you stay so thin making all these goodies! I just wish I could have one of those cupcakes, oh I wish I could have one! I’ve got to scroll up again to look at them…geez!
That’s what having children is good for – they eat them all up before I’m even done singing to my song!
Creative rhyme scheme.
You must know that you cannot show these things without including a recipe!!
In this case the cake is negligible- which is almost never the case, but Swiss meringue butter creams are a little tricky. If you haven’t made it before, we have something to do next time we are together, if you have made them I would have to say what made this one particularly spectacular was I mixed the espresso powder (around 1-2 T) with 2 T of rum. Delicious.
I will have you know I had to hunt down a piece of chocolate because of this post.
I will look forward to being your stagiaire sometime down the road!
