cupcakes...

[squeezle]

...make people happy

I wondered it it was their 5th birthday or something...


however, seeing cupcakes and not being able to have a cupcake...doesn't make some people happy.

Are you on the no-cupcake diet?

I read this pleasant but innocuous article on cupcakes in Time magazine yesterday.

I read this pleasant but innocuous article on cupcakes in Time magazine yesterday.

Um, either I'm way out of the loop, or Joel Stein is over-stating the cupcake craze.

The problem is that in the yuppie-under-40 set, there are no other desserts

No other desserts?

yes but that's ok cuz I'm shedding pounds like a man sheds hair.

[mere1975]

Daaang, I guess i should give up cupcakes, too.

P.S.
Joel Stein is probably just caught up in the NY/LA mindset. Just because it's trendy in NY and LA, it's The Way It Is.

P.P.S.
No one wants to read an article about something that is "kind of a trend," so I guess he had to sensationalize it a bit.

You know what I like about cupcakes? Unlike a large cake, they require no self control.

Unless you have like... 11 cupcakes.

This reminds me of my dad sitting down to eat half a box of low-fat creamsicles (sp?). Not very lowfat by the half-dozen.

If I was going to get a tattoo, which I wouldn't, I would get a tattoo of a cupcake.

that would be so cool. and people who wanted to beat you up would be like "let's beat up rebecca" until they found out you had a tattoo like that. and then they'd be like "hey let's not miss with her i bet she got that tat in prison ;((("

Yeah! The rest of us were sailors!

*edit* and as a sailor you traditionally get the cupcake tattoo when you've sailed around the treacherous Horn Of Plenty.
