Apple cupcakes

Hey girls today I will have my first recipe. Apple cupcakes. These are perfect for an end of the year present for your teacher (you know like an apple on the desk). Well I will have a step by step instructions (including pictures).
Ingredients:
cake mix (any cake mix will do)
and 
the ingredients needed to make   

donuts (optional)
cupcake liners (it's cuter if
 they are red but I couldn't find the red)
 
food coloring (if you don't have
 pre-dyed frosting)
 

a bowl


Ziploc close able bag (or
if you have  a piping bag use that













How to make them:
line your cupcake tins with the liners
                            
                 Put vanilla frosting or pre dyed frosting into
 Ziploc bags or pastry bag
(add as much red food coloring to
 get it an apple red or pink, green, 
and to get brown I used a couple drops each
 of yellow and red and then I added a
 drop of green. Smoosh the bags around or mix
 them in a bowl and there you go.)

Make sure your donuts (if you are using them) fit in your cupcake
 liners to make sure they will fit on top of your cupcakes.
Time to make them
Mix the cupcake batter and put in some red food dye to make them cuter

Put them in the oven and bake for 
10 to 12 minutes or until a tooth pick put in the center comes out  cleanly
Take them out of the oven ( if you are
younger have an adult take them out)
Let cool for about about 5 m minutes or
until they are cool to the touch 





Put the red or pink frosting on them 
put a donut (optional) on top and ice on 
top of the donut with the same frosting
take your brown frosting and pipe in the 
center of the donut. Pipe the green in as a leaf shape. 
Optional: cut the donut into little triangle shapes 
and put them on top of the brown frosting.

Tips for getting over a crush

Hey girls I realized after I wrote the blog post about asking a boy if he likes you that sometimes the boy will say no. These are tips you can do to get over a crush.
Tips for getting over a crush

  • Take all the photos you have of him and either burn them with a bunch of your friends, shred them, or just use old fashion scissors. (I am shredding them)
  • Get a group of friends and just talk (who knows they might have the same things going on in there life's 
  • Know that this happens to a lot of girls you shouldn't feel like your the only one. 
I hope this helped you girls who asked the guy you like and they didn't like you. Remember you are not alone.

Follow by email

Hey girls today we will talk about new segments. First of all to the right (as indicated by the pointer) is a follow by email. thanks to this every time I write a new post you will get an email saying what I have put in my post. So now even if you do not have a blogger account you can still know when I have a new post without having to check constantly 

Tips for asking a guy if he likes you

Hey girls a viewer asked me how I found out that the guy I like likes me. Well It was after the band concert and we played a great show. After the concert I simply just asked him because some people have told me he does others he doesn't so I just asked it isn't that hard, but for the people that think I'm crazy here a few tips for you girls to ask the guy that you like if he likes you. 
Tips for asking a guy if he likes you
  • Take a few online tests (see if they say that he likes you)
  • Ask around (ask some of his friends if he likes any one [don't ask them if he likes you because if you don't want him to know that you like him])
  • Find the perfect place ( you don't want to ask him right before a nervous test or when he is busy because he might not be able to hear or pay attention to what you are saying)
  • ask him (it couldn't be more simpler, but you could always motivate your self by saying to yourself "you can do it you can do it" that's what helped me 
See you later girls

Tips for how to avoid getting tangled in the pressure to be a " perfect" image

Hey girls today at school we had two girls come in. They were from an orginisation called REbeL. They had few simple things that I am all for, but mainly they talked about how to avoid pressure from peers, and from the media. I am going to list what they put, and a few of my own weaved in. If it is my own I will have my usual format, but if it is from the girls I will put a (REbeL) next to it. So here we go
Tips for how to avoid getting tangled in the pressure to be a " perfect" image

  • If you read magazines (who doesn't) and you see an add that makes you feel bad about yourself either rip it out or just back sass it (say you are airbrushed, photo shopped, and not real) (REbeL)
  • Every morning go to the mirror and say to yourself words of encouragement and what you think is "Good" in your life        (a daily affirmation of sorts)
  • Drop you baggage (things that stress you out) people can't hug with all of them  (REbeL)
  • Know the simple fact that you are you and no one can change that ( you need to know that no matter what stupid diet or clothes you try doesn't change you  (REbeL)
Thank you to the girl representatives that came to our school for letting me use there tips. Do you think I did okay if you think I left anything out please post a comment.
