I've seen this cheeseburger cupcake bounce around some of the food blogs, but at Clay's request it really is worth posting for those of you who may have not seen it. Flickr user KateDW posted the recipe with accompanying (delicious looking) photos. After eating one of these cupcakes, Clay pointed out that he'd probably want to eat a cheeseburger, which would then be followed by another cupcake and so on and so forth for a never ending cycle. In other words, heaven.

For one of those Chicago adventures, we secretly borrowed a car almost as ridiculously conspicuous as the 1961 Ferrari 250 GT in the movie: my dad's purple Cadillac El Dorado (yes, purple). Put an extra 113 miles on the odometer. Hoping to erase that telltale mileage, we raised the back on a pair of jacks and ran the car in reverse. The Caddy did not fly backward into a ravine, as in the film. What it did do is quickly take off a clean 10,000 miles. Oops. (Yes, you bet he noticed.)
