Cupcake waltz


Matthew sez, "A while ago iIruined a batch of cupcakes by adding too much baking soda. Rather than throwing them out, I made them dance (a waltz to be specific). Over the course of a weekend, I made a stop motion film of the awful tasting baked goods moving across my table." Link (Thanks, Matthew!)

That ... makes me ridiculously happy, how joyful to imagine someone spending an entire weekend making his cupcakes dance simply because - well, they came out burnt, what else was he supposed do with them?

What a fun mind =)

Why doesn't anybody think of a Square Dance when they do this kind of stuff?

Last December, a 2-person team created a lovely stop motion film called Reggeli (“Breakfast” in Hungarian) for a video contest, also set to Yann Tiersen’s Amélie score. You can watch it here:
