Yeah - so I am in trouble


ok so I have a food that I love to eat...cake batter...yeah I know raw eggs..yada yada.  Well I keep this craving at bay b/c I never buy cake mixes.  so most of the time my craving is at 9 pm and I don't want to get out of my PJ's and run to the store just to satisfy my craving (ok that's not the reason...I do not want to bake at 9pm at night and then have to clean up....and I couldn't see all the extra batter go to waste b/c after a tablespoon my craving is cured.)
So today The kids and I were going to make Mike cupcakes for our picnic on Sunday. (Tomorrow I am getting my hair colored/cut/pedi/massage so not cooking cupcakes tomorrow)
So I get up only to realize Mike took the Tahoe to work...no big deal except I HAVE NO CAKE MIX.  SO I do my usual allrecipes.com search (and for those of you who have never used the site...IT ROCKS!)  and I find one titled easy white cake recipe.  SO I tried it...did the whole cake thing from scratch...and...OMG the batter tasted like ice cream, the kids loved it too! (oh and I used eggs that had been pasturized so no worries there).  Anyway it made 12 exactly (minus our tasting portion) and now they are baking in the oven. 
This is now my downfall...b/c I am a math wiz (LMBO)  Anytime I am now hungry at 9pm I can cut the recipe in to 1/4 or heck 1/8th and eat my small portion good right...heck no...like I need to eat cake batter on a whim!
