Happy New Year

I had a really quiet one last night, which is exactly the way I wanted to see out 2008. I was asleep by one o'clock! But a new year deserves cupcakes, and so I baked and decorated these in the afternoon — choc-orange cupcakes (based on VCTOTW, naturally) with orange icing. Orange in flavour, and in colour...

VCTOTW Chocolate with orange

Choc-orange with orange

That is milk-refined sparkling wine in the background, of which I didn't partake, but it sure looks festive, right? I toasted with a rum and cola. Sheesh, very classy.

Here's to 2009!
