绣球花（紫阳花）小蛋糕（Hydrangea Cupcakes）

上星期都在忙蛋糕，现在想起来都觉得有点geli。

这个小蛋糕是为儿子学校义卖而做的。

七早八早起身，眼睛还没睁大，就坐着挤糖霜。

一面做就一面在想，做么要这样苦自己呢？多睡一点不是更好吗？

什么义卖喔？为什么要答应做这个东西叻？

更搞不懂的是我儿子竟然还叫我和他妹妹要记得拿钱去买，说是支持他。

儿子啊！有没有搞错啊？

我出料，出力，最后还叫我出钱去买回自己的作品？？

天啊！真的是哭笑不得。

这种事我是不可能去做的。

我是去了学校，但是在他收档时去看看热闹。

我那可爱的女儿真的是够听话，拉了一斑好同学一起去支持他的哥哥。

也去买她妈妈做的蛋糕和饼干。

家里明明都摆着免费的不吃，拿钱去买同样的东西回来，难道味道特别不同吗？

我。。。面对两个100％支持学校的孩子，真的是无语。
