This Post is Like a Cup of Warm Milk

No one is ever going to read this blog if we keep having successful experiences but I’m afraid that’s all we have for you this week. They weren’t pretty but they weren’t supposed to be. Martha’s Chocolate Chunk Cookie Cupcakes were part cookie, part cupcake. I’m still trying to figure out how she ever came up with their name? We loved the idea of them because the recipe didn’t include icing. That’s great for us but not so great when you are trying to write a blog about baking 175 kupkakes and not have to resort to:

“Hey reader! We baked things then other people ate them! See you in 7 days!”

Fortunately for our eaters and unfortunately for the readers (not sure if that “s” on the end of readers is necessary) that’s exactly what happened. We baked a lot of delicious kupkakes, a lot of people ate them, then most of those people were kind enough to let us know they were delicious. I almost fell asleep writing that.

Here is what they looked like (I got to play around with my new photography app, Instagram).






I already told you they weren’t exactly lookers. If you ever need to make a lot of kupkakes quickly we recommend you make these. Do it in your sleep.

Since we have nothing else to offer you this week, here is a picture of the blog’s namesakes.



Internets, meet the Kokos. Kokos, internets. We told you they were cute! Much cuter than your dogs ever imagined being. The truth hurts. Tana’s Koko is the brown fluff and Suzanne’s Koko is the other brown fluff. I hope that helps.

We feel terrible about being so great at baking yet so boring at blogging so here is a video clip of Martha visiting Stephen Colbert. They cook some of Stephen’s holiday favorites and talk about killing turkeys. She gets the turkey drunk before she kills it. She’s nothing if she’s not a sweatheart. (Sally, just click on the red letters or call Suzanne for directions!)
Something tells me that next week isn't going to be so boring since this is what we are going to attempt:

I wish we had a video camera following us around for this one. It's going to be hard to convey so much disapointment with only words.
