Now THIS ! I better look through the history book or I am gonna be getting my ass in a bind ! Today being National Pasta day and tomorrow the 18th is dedicated to chocolate cupcakes. The first mention of a dessert with the qualities of a cupcake was in American Cookery in 1796, and the first time the term "cupcake" was used was in 1828. There were two different definitions of cupcakes—also known as cup cakes—at that time. One type of cupcake was so named because it was baked in a container that looked like a cup. These were pottery cups, molds, or ramekins, and predated muffin tins. This is the definition that is still in use. The other type of cupcake was so named because of its recipe, which was measured out by the cup, instead of being weighed (that type of cake appropriately became the pound cake). For instance, a recipe may have contained a cup of butter, two cups of sugar, three cups of flour, as well as eggs. These were sometimes baked in cups, but were also often baked in tins. Cupcakes use the same basic ingredients as regular cakes, and can be topped with frosting and other decorations, and can be filled as well. Today is a day for the popular chocolate variety of these treats! |

It was suggested I serve a nice Chianti with dinner but a bunch of drunk running big combines, tractors, and trucks didn't seem like a wise decision to me.

Chocolate anything is a favorite with me; it doesn't have to be a cupped cake. Your harvest dinner sounded great, and the pasta would restore the men's energy levels to keep going till midnight. It was a good decision to pass on the Chianti. Good luck with the infusion treatment.
