kickass contest


Reenactment of a scene that took place in our living room tonight around 9:30 pm:

Me: Do you remember how I told you about Kickass Cupcake's contest a few weeks ago? You know, how they were looking for a new cupcake to feature on their menu?

Me (again): Remember?!

Husband: Oh yeah, I kind of remember ...

Me (dancing in my long underwear bottoms and in a t-shirt covered in flour and pumpkin whoopie pie batter): Well, guess what?! I WON!

Husband (calmly): You won?

Me (dancing even more): Yes, I fricken won!!

Husband (slightly more excited): What does that mean?

Me (uncontrollably doing some sort of jig in my long johns): Cupcakes for a year!!

Husband: What?! Holy crap! That's awesome! What is the cupcake they picked?

Me (now running back to the computer): I don't know ... I read the message too quickly!!

So ladies and gentlemen! Kickass Cupcakes (in Davis Square) will now be selling the "Somerville Sensation" cupcake on their menu in the near future! The idea I proposed was an espresso/coffee cupcake base, topped with Fluff whipped with Nutella as a frosting, and then a few Taza Chocolate Covered Nibs on top as a garnish. I can't wait to see what it will look like as a cupcake creation! :)

super sweet coworkers

As many of you know, we took a two week vacation and flew out to the west coast. Hence, a lag in blog posts, but alas! Once I sort through the gazillion photos we took, I'll be sure to post something interesting very soon. :)

Look at what some of my super sweet coworkers created for me while I was away:

Talk about such a nice surprise when I walked in on Monday morning! It definitely made returning from a long vacation a little easier. That and when someone reminded me that we have a 3-day work week next week. Thanks, ladies! :)
