Dying to try this recipe

Ok, so as soon as my sister tells me that she's pregnant, I began the shower planning process. I realize that this will not take place for many months, but I can't help but plan.

I have purchased the cutest mini-bundt pans and plan to make Paula Deen's Lemon Blossoms.

Lemon Blossoms

4 large eggs
3.5 oz instant lemon pudding mix
18.5 oz package yellow cake mix
.75 cups vegetable oil

Glaze
4 cups confectioners sugar
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
grated zest of 1 lemon
3 tbs vegetable oil
3 tbs water

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Spray cupcake pans with vegetable cooking spray. Combine cake mix, eggs, pudding mix and vegetable oil until smooth (about 2 minutes). Pour into each tin until halfway full. Bake for 12 minutes. Turn out onto tea towel.

To make glaze, sift sugar into bowl. Add lemon juice, zest, oil and water. Mix until smooth.

Dip cupcakes into glaze while they are still warm, covering as much of the cake as possible. Let cupcakes cool on a wire rack for one hour before storing or serving.

There is no way I can wait until next Fall to make these for the shower. I shall try them soon most likely.



Also, I received a job offer today, if you want to call it that. I interviewed twice for a position with a radio station. They knew my education, work experience, salary history...everything. They offer me the position....with an $11/hour "salary". E-LEV-EN dollars per hour. Basically, less than $23,000 per year to support me, my husband in law school, our mortgage, groceries, cars, insurance, taxes, etc.

Here is what I don't get: Why did they have me travel 2 hours each way, twice, when they knew perfectly well that there is no way in hell that I could ever support myself on what they were willing to offer? Why did they ever contact me in the first place? What were they thinking? They should have seen my salary requirements and thrown my resume away. I am not just coming out of highschool. I have a bachelors and will soon have a masters. I have years of work experience. $11 per hour? Is that a joke?

I had submitted my salary history when I originally applied. Both interviewers had gone over my salary history with me during our interviews. Did it not cross their mind to maybe not waste my time?
