👍 Billy's Bakery, which I think split off from Magnolia. There's a version of the recipe on Martha Stewart's website, here.

Good idea: post it in the forums so we can all bake cupcakes!!!! 🙂 Mmmm.

I'm rather fascinated by the Martha Empire, too.

Thanks!

I usually end up using more confectioner's sugar than they list to make the frosting firm enough so it doesn't slide off the cupcake. Enjoy. 🙂

Hmm. You raise a good point. Yet oddly, hitting the gym still remains less appealing. 🙂

That is why I hired a trainer. It is easy to motivate yourself when you are paying for it. I'll just tell him I ate brownies in a medical school application-induced depression and he'll kick my a$$ until I burn them off.

My heart skipped a beat this morning when I realized it is exactly 2 weeks until UPenn notifications... (Hopefully at least... That 'week of March 19th' notification is starting to stress me out. They better not wait until the end of the week! It's been more than long enough already!)

I thought paying for a gym membership would motivate me to work out more... nah..... I'm still a lazy mofo. 🙄

Daaaah! I would just like to make a comment (to god, mostly) about how ridiculously long March has been taking to get its ass over with. Remember those last 2 weeks of college, god? Remember how quickly they went? Remember those 2 weeks I spent in Cancun, or the week in Vegas? Remember how fast you made them go? HOWBOUT YOU HURRY IT UP A LITTLE, SIR?

well you know, march *is* named after mars, the roman god of war.

you dare tell the god of war to hurry it up?

i find blasphemy is usually the way to go when you're killing yourself waiting for 2 weeks to pass by, and have no way to pass them.

i even bought a video game for my 360 (which i had more or less stopped playing). it's called N3 and it's some stupid elf race trying to beat up a goblin race. needless to say, i can't make it past the first few levels. sighhhhh.....

hopefully we will all eventually have the luck of severus.

ooh, this sounds serious. i've heard rumors that the next d.s.m. is going to include "inability to play technologically up-to-date video games" as a symptom of depression.

I am so desperate to make time fly I have actually offered to tutor someone in a class I don't really remember. So now I am basically re-taking the damn thing. That's it, I'm going shopping. Credit line be damned!

 

[zimmie256]

Hi guys,

I made a very pleasant discovery today! Turns out this Sunday is when we get to push the clocks forward an hour... Therefore, one less hour of waiting in March! Yay!

Haha, can you tell I'm getting a little bit desperate?? (and bored at work....)

Yikes! Good luck with that... Sounds like you really deserve that shopping spree!

Sadly, you have provided me with the only reason in my entire life that I can actually look upon bumping the clocks forward an hour as a good thing. Med schools, what have you done!?!?!

Dallenoff what are you waiting on?
(although i may or may not hate you a bit for your comments on duke in the duke bball thread... who needs tissues now, baby?)

 

[sara3426]

I am *really* disappointed in everyone for letting me be the only one posting in this thread!

Personally, I am getting desperate waiting for March 19th (the ever-receding date) to come.

I was hoping there'd be SOMEONE else out there who's going as crazy as me!
Or have you all found something totally spectacular to do to pass the time and no one's told me about it?

 

[Severus]

I'll post ***** with you in this thread. I started it... I shouldn't leave it hanging like this.

due to previous experience, no more getting excited about a school decision. im just waiting for the left hook. (of course thats what i say and what i show on the outside, on the inside im going crazy)

 

[zimmie256]

Sorry for abandoning you Sara! I'm out there going crazy with you too... (11 days till March 19th!). However I've been trying (unsuccessfully) to keep my mind off of the impending date. The more I think about it the more I get my hopes up and I'm really afraid of setting myself up for disappointment. Ah well, such is life. Might as well suffer with others on this thread instead of suffering in silence though, so thanks for reviving it! 👍
