How to Effectively Enjoy and Destroy a Cupcake

As demonstrated by my 2 year old cousin, here is the proper way to indulge:
Step 1: Wave to the camera. Show off your cute face. 
Step 2: Position yourself over the object of your desire.
Step 3: Carefully, but not cautiously, slam face into your dessert.
Step 4: Show the camera your scary fangs and tell them “I can destroy you, too!”
Step 5: Go back for more. Repeat as necessary until the majority, or all, of the dessert is demolished.
Step 6: Get even closer to the camera. Make sure they really know who’s boss.
Step 7: Look around. Stay alert. Intruders may try to steal some of your goods.
Step 8: Be so proud of your accomplishment.
Step 9: Stick the remains in your mouth and wave them around in excitement!
Step 10: Realize that, ew, you can’t eat paper.
Step 12: Hold it up to the sky to show the world your accomplishment.
Step 13: And then go back for crumbs.

    He’s REALLY good at Step 5. That may be the best step. That or step 3. Either way, pretty bad-ass. I would think there needs to be a pre-step, though…like: “Remove all clothing so CSI won’t find any fibers t oeventually be traced back to you.” I’m assuming this is also why he didn’t want to use his hands too much…So as not to leave behind any fingerprints. Total cupcake massacre.

    thing is he often walks aroung the house with just a diaper and crocs and even better when he adds a hat to the outfit. Too bad people couldnt hear him grunting and groaning as he demolished the cupcake. It really adds to the experience. Thanks for the laugh! Kelly

    Word has it that you are the girl with the Chick Fil-A obsession. Meet another girl with the same obsession, only she lives in CA, where Chick Fil-A only exists in fond memories while living in the South. Sigh.

    Eat a grilled chicken sandwich for me. Hold the pickles. Or rather, eat them on the side.
