Last week, I made cupcakes with Mom. We went to the
shop to pick up the items we needed for the cupcakes. We got
frosting and cake mix. We got cooking oil and eggs.
When we got home, we unpacked our bags and switched on
the oven. Mom got out a mixing dish and a spoon. I dumped
the cake mix in the dish. Mom let me add the oil and two eggs.
I mixed everything together. Mom added paper liners to the
cupcake pan. Then I got a spoon and scooped the batter into
the cupcake liners. Mom set the timer for the cupcakes to bake
in the oven.
Waiting for the cupcakes to cook was the hardest part. It
took so long! I kept checking on the cupcakes. At last, the
timer started beeping. I jumped up and down and shouted,
“Cupcakes! Cupcakes!” Mom got mitts and pulled out the
hot pan. The sweet smell of fresh baked cupcakes filled the
kitchen. Mom and I put sweet, pink frosting on the cupcakes.
I got frosting on my fingers and licked it off. Then Mom and
I each chose a cupcake to eat. Yum, yum! Those were the best
cupcakes!
