Cupcake News

I did not use food dye in these! The organic matcha powder turns them into a brutiful Nickelodeon green.

Tiramisú cupcakes for Yasmin!

Stichcraft and Bitchery

What a crafty summer!

Shorts to cupcakes to bags to a myriad of things.

If only I would have spent more time filling out LOAN APPLICATIONS.

Chocolate with chocolate fudge icing, chocolate with peanut butter mousse, strawberry shortcakes, and vanilla cupcakes with Thai coconut glaze. Vegan organic HEAVEN.

These herringbone trouser shorts used to be just regular herringbone trousers with terrible bootcut legs. A few snips and a whirl of the sewing machine and I'm lookin' smart and feelin' good or something.

And my bag that I use to haul my work clothes or sometimes when I go places. It's made out of Ikea fabric that went on sale two days after I bought it. Sick!

Tomorrow I leave to go to New York for the weekend and you know what that means... scheduled posting!

MTV Promo and American Apparel BJ

Remember that old MTV commercial where a girl is working at a bar and she looks super busy and she's getting super sleazed on? And then later she goes home, counts all her tip money, looks extremely content and does ballet because she just got into dance school or something?

That's basically how I feel after an eleven hour shift. I sit on my floor and count my tips and smile and rub my sore legs in bliss. The only difference is I don't (often) get sleazed on nor am I saving up to go to ballet school because I am not limber enough to touch my toes.

But you get the idea.

Also, new provocative ad from American Apparel.

Oh la la, quelle trash / artsy porn.

Also, I sold my first dozen cupcakes today! Wooooop.

Place Your Orders Now

Finished my first batch.

Five more to go!

GTA V: LV

While shopping for baking supplies for my new (vegan) cupcake empire, I was stopped at a stoplight near Pep Boys and City View diner. I see the driver of the car at the front of the line of cars stopped, get out and approach two very tiny Mexicans ( I know they are Mexican by the color of their flag hanging on the car / skin [jaykay! LOLOMG]).

At this point I think "geeze, they're totally blocking the lane I need to be in but I bet I can pass them when the light turns green so I might as well head into the next lane over". I then do as my brain has instructed me, causing me to be right to the left of the Mexican car. It is important to note that the man in the first car is a GIANT. SO the two Mexicans begin arguing with the Giant and pointing and stuff and then BAM, it turns into GTA and fisticuffs ensue. People from the diner are watching at safe distance and nobody else is doing anything.

I start to feel the bystander effect setting in so I dial 911 to snap myself out of it. It rings for about five times and then I hang up as the light turns green. I felt bad driving away BUT what could I do besides beat up a pedestrian and steal their money or kill a hooker. Either way, I needed to buy icing tips.

I plan on photoshopping a fun little graphic in a bit about the whole situation.

Can We Open a Cupcake Shop?

And just display them all in these gems?!

While the sixty dollar price tag makes me weep a little, I think they would be really neat to have setting around.

I guess it takes me back to my mother, nana, great-nan, and other great-nan all displaying their freshly baked cakes in similar contraptions.

Mmmph.

I smell a vegan treats trip tomorrow.
