Another gem.

This one is much tastier: Cupcake Hero.


I think I am behind the curve on the cupcake gig, but I really didn't get it until recently. A friend introduced me to the joys of Cupcake Hero and now I am smitten with cupcakes (or buns, if you're Irish... or at an Irish/British/German/New Zealand/American Lost-watching fĂȘte).

Thursday was Key Lime Pie cupcakes. Now to decide what to try next. I think I'm curious about the Root Beer Clove variety, but there are oh so many choices...

Simple pleasures.


This made me laugh: Utah's latest public health ad campaign.


(If you didn't already know, I'm a total disease nerd... you should see my bookshelves.)

If you could have a superpower, would you rather be invisible or be able to fly?

This was posed during some very deep (clearly) dinner conversation the other day. I picked flying, as did most, but there was one tempting vote for invisible. After all, you could watch people all you want without the awkwardness that might come with bald-faced staring. That's not too far off from the blog world, though, right? I see you, but you don't see me? Plenty of uninhibited people-watching. I have many friends on blogs these days, but as the number grows I only feel an increasing sense that I would be somehow cheating by keeping up on your lives in near anonymity without anything to reciprocate.

So, here I am. As you can see below, I had good intentions once upon a time. I've decided to try again. I make no guarantees as to longevity (or content). Maybe one day I'll fully embrace all this new media stuff.

Oh, and I guess I still pick flying. I can find other ways to be invisible.
