Pretty Valentine’s Day cupcake: I’ve always loved that some folks call them sprinkles, some jimmies and some hundreds-and-thousands*. Shot by e.mel87 . * “The term “hundreds and thousands” to refer to sprinkles appears in Agatha Christie’s mystery novel The Thirteen Problems. It also appears in a cookie recipe at the back of Tomie dePaola’s children’s book “Jingle the Christmas Clown,” though it was published in the United States (perhaps this is because the recipe was originally created by Mary Ann Esposito, host of “Ciao Italia,” a U.S. public television cooking program).” Via Wikipedia .
