Adventures of one quarterlife crisis and a year-long trip around the world.
My latest cupcake obsession has been Banana Cupcakes with Honey-Cinnamon Frosting from my dear friend, Martha. They’re super quick and especially awesome if you have over-ripe bananas that you need to use up… way tastier than banana bread.
The first time I made them, I made 24 mini cupcakes — which was good, but 6 massive cupcakes are way more fun. Plus, with only 6 you get to say “mmmm…. I just ate a third of a stick of butter! mmm…” every time you eat a cupcake!
What have you been cooking lately?

About
Adventures of a twenty-something Pacific Northwesterner who ditched her marketing job and MBA for a year-long round the world trip. Call it a quarter-life crisis or just the travel bug; either way, this blog documents the adventure. One year later, take a look at my rehabilitation back into daily life.
