There’s a small container of cupcakes on the table. I made them last night. They aren’t frosted and are hermetically sealed in a cake-carrying plastic container which I inherited through marriage. Part of the large dowry consisting of furniture and baking items that never quite made it on my various moves around the country.
Among the ingredients was a recipe that listed cooking times for Bundt pans, and a little registered trademark after the word Bundt. To the vast knowledge of the internet I discover that it was trademarked in the 50’s by a man in Minnesota, but used long before that as the German word bund or, to gather together like a group of people. \
Etymology is cool.
I also find myself missing my indoor houseplants. It has been nearly two years since I last spoke to them. It’s ok plants. I still think of you. I know you are well because occasionally you make it in to Brandon and Alison’s blog (scroll half-way down to the table full of plants).
Anyhow. Take a gander at a larger image of yonder cupcakes .
