Back at work today and I was greeted by this.

 cupcake

Yes, in a moment of madness at the end of last year, I thought it a good idea to buy myself a 2013 calendar featuring a daily cupcake recipe. With accompanying photo.

So although the Chinese calendar tells me that this is the Year of the Snake and the United Nations has announced 2013 as the International year of Water Cooperation and also the International Year of Quinoa, the little calendar sitting on my desk tells me that this is, in fact, the year of the cupcake.

Totally bolus-worthy. And yes – I can eat that!
