square_root_of_pi | Hi, my name is Christin, and I'm a hobby combiner. (Reply)

A co-worker pointed out to me today that I combine my hobbies.

I love video games.

I love to knit.

My next project is to knit a scarf of level one of Super Mario Bros.

Following that logic, is this next idea any surprise?

I love Harry Potter novels.

I love cupcakes.

I am going to make Hogwart's House cupcakes!

Flavours

Slytherin:
Creme de Menthe chocolate cupcakes with dark chocolate ganache
or
Lime Coconut cupcakes with coconut cream whipped frosting

Ravenclaw:
Snickerdoodle cupcakes with blue mocha buttercream frosting
or
Blueberry pineapple cupcakes with a pineapple glaze

Hufflepuff:
Caramel cupcakes with toffee chips and chocolate ganache
or
banana cupcakes with dark chocolate chips and Butterscotch buttercream frosting

Gryffindor:
Strawberry cupcakes with lemon merengue frosting
or
Red Velvet cupcakes with cream cheese pecan frosting

(EDIT: Not up for voting, I am making one of each, kind of a light option and a heavy option for each house. I will make these after the move. Tallytown peeps will be meh lab monkeys.)

Oh, and I may or may not have been spoiled for Book 7. I was reading a celebrity gossip blog and accidentally read what may or may not be a spoiler. After confiding what I read to Jonathan, he thinks it is bogus.

I hope so.
