Double Birthday Celebration

We all know that Memorial Weekend is coming up and lucky for me that means 3 day weekend!! In addition to it being Memorial Day this long weekend, I have two lovely co-workers who are celebrating birthdays as well, and since many of the people in the office also took off Friday, I decided to make cupcakes tonight in lieu of a triple holiday weekend.  I felt like going for something colorful for the occasion and what is more colorful than confetti?!? C o n f e t t i Cupcakes adapted from I Heart Cuppycakes Ingredients: 1 1/4 cup flour 1/4 tsp. salt 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder 3/4 cup sugar 6 tbsp. butter, softened 1/2 cup milk 3 large egg whites 1 tsp. vanilla 1/2 tsp. almond extract 1/3 cup multi-colored sprinkles ("jimmies")
