Links I’m Loving ~ Cupcakes

If you’ve been following the blog for any length of time then you know I absolutely love cupcakes!  You can head over to my Cupcakes Across America page to see all of the cupcake shops I’ve tried out all over the country and if you’ll indulge me for just a minute I can explain why I love cupcakes so much.  You see, they are the perfect dessert because portion control is built right into them!  And don’t forget, cupcakes have a better cake to frosting ratio than a actual slice of cake (always have so much cake part left when you finish the frosting!)  So for this week’s Links I’m Loving I thought it was only fitting to share some pretty awesome cupcake recipes, blogs, crafts, and more!
