Watermelon Cupcakes

I have Spring Fever!

January’s dreary cold days are hard for me. There isn’t much to look forward too and I even have a birthday coming up. The hard part about January birthdays is – What do you want for your birthday? I never know, because we just had Christmas. Could you please ask me in July, because by then I have a whole long list for you. Another icky part of January birthdays is it snows and usually on my birthday. Now this would be great if I was in to skiing  – but I’m not. The older I get the less I like the snow. Unless its for Christmas, but please melt right after. I know, I know I can’t have it both ways. Okay enough whining. This is my solution to this years dreary days of January. I’m having Springy, yummy, watermelon cupcakes.

These watermelon cupcakes are not watermelon flavored they just look like watermelons. I didn’t go too crazy. I made the cupcakes with Betty Crocker’s Strawberry Cake mix and topped them with my favorite buttercream frosting.
