I woke up in a bad mood. So it kind of made sense that today was the day I'd work on being nice to people. Ugh.
But here's how I'm making it work: I'm feeding people chocolate.
Mmm, brownies... 
Yeah, this looks a lot like the brownies, but it's actually a chocolate genoise... and that Nutella will soon be used to make a mousse. Yum! 
These cupcakes are coming with me to a meeting I'm attending in a little while... don't really want to go, but thought food would make it better for everyone.Not only am I fulfilling my obligation to doing something good three times, but I actually am feeling happier and more kindly toward the world.
Sidenote: That last phrase -- "kindly toward the world" -- immediately made me think of a saint in a medieval icon, with soft doe eyes and gentle hands lifted in blessing. That's not quite how I'm acting yet.
Jealous of the chocolate goodies? Want to tell me about your Day 2? Inspired to send me money? I'd like to hear all of that in the comments.

I sucked a fat one today. Have I written my paper? No. Contested my ticket? No.
I did, however, make an extra effort to be kind to this girl in my program that makes me want to staple her elbows together whenever she talks.
Hi there! I wanted to say thanks for stopping by my blog, and for your comment. :) It was really thoughtful and well-worded. I loved it. :)
If my oven worked, I'd follow suit and get baking! Instead, I'm going to shower and drive into the city to see friends. Er... starting to improve my life tomorrow!!
I love your little project and I think brownies always make a bad day better! Hope you are having a better day now! Thanks for sharing with on my bad day! I too sometimes just eat string cheese (with no apple). So bad!
Om nom nom!!
Ooooh those cupcakes do look very good and good yummy food does always make meeting's easier :)

That first picture looks like meth, Christina. Poorly-made meth -- but meth nonetheless.
