The Learning Experience

Ok, so by now we all know my obsession with cupcakes, but I learned today that even people who don't have every cupcake cookbook, have never been to a cupcake shop, and who haven't eaten a cupcake in years still appreciate the goodness behind the cupcake.

As a thank you gift for a friend I decided to share my love for cupcakes. I surprised him by giving him and his roommates a box of freshly baked cupcakes. The light in their eyes when they tasted the sweet treat made my day. It made me remember why I love cupcakes; they're a simple little joy that always brings a smile to your face from that first bite.

This simple, yet meaningful experience taught me that I'm doing right by embarking on my search for cupcakes. So maybe I'm not ending world hunger one cupcake at a time, but I am making people smile, myself included. That's one of the most important things anyone can learn: do what you love. And I certainly love my cupcakes!
