No rainbow, but rather tasty

I wanted to share how the Rainbow cupcakes turned out. Will and I made them St. Patrick's Day using the recipe featured in the March 2010 issue of Family Fun. If you like crafting with kids, it's worth a subscription.

Hmmmm ... in their picture all the layers are nice and even. And mine, well let's just say they were very colorful. In fact, the perfect cupcake for a tie dye party. My theory is the red layer baked first and then sank down? Anyone else got an explanation?

Though the rainbow didn't appear for us nor did a pot of gold, the cupcakes were tasty enough to share with neighbors. As my husband put it, would you rather have picture-perfect cupcakes that taste bad or bad-looking cupcakes that taste yummy? Yummy for sure.
