It is one of those things, where you wake up really excited and all you want to do is devour... buttered bread. Or cupcakes. Or hummus with bacon. Either way, you surely know what I am talking about. Yea... Oh and my bad about a haiku last week. Summer is in full swing and last Sunday I was busy stuffing my face as I tried to get into shape. Wait, that makes no sense... maybe I can just talk about some cupcakes from Portland. We all love PDX, right?... [Continue reading]
If you read about the gravel cupcake debacle last week, then you probably wondered what was in my other hand as the cupcake fell to the ground. It was a cup of delicious banana pudding from Sugar Sweet Sunshine. Everyone told me to get it the last time I got cupcakes from SSS. I do not know why it took me this long to go back and try it, but I was thankful to have tried it! Maybe I will try to eat it for breakfast the way Kathy says she sometimes does....

Oh I have got a story for you. I was on a multi-stop food trip and the first stop was at Pinisi. All my blogging friends are big fans of Pinisi. Robyn, Kathy, and Tina all like this bakery. My expectations were sky high. I walked in and requested a single red velvet cupcake and paid 4 dollars for it. I was kinda shocked at the price tag, but this is my life. Not yet ready to eat a cupcake at the time, therefore I carried it in the plastic take-out container and walked towards the Lower East Side (LES). After buying something else and having dessert in both hands I was ready for my quest. Here was where it started to go all wrong...... [Continue reading]
Woo hoo, I love guest blogging days. Jonathan who brought us Andrzej Grill, is back for another guest post. And it is about cupcakes! I am making everyone think non-stop about cupcakes because that is how I roll. Read on! btw, anyone else here in the Chicago area?)
For some peculiar reason (I just can't imagine why?!), for the last few weeks I've had these non-stop cupcake fixation. Luckily there are two cupcake places close to the work. One, Molly's Cupcakes, is directly across from clinic while the other, Swirlz, is directly across from the main hospital. So no matter where I am, I have options for fulfilling my cravings close by.... [Continue reading]
"They are all good. I come here just for the cupcakes."
The woman to my left spotted my indecisiveness at the counter of Vegan goodness at 'Snice in Park Slope. My first thought was, "That sign says these are all Vegan, what kind of crack are you smoking? They are ALL good?" It was also a surprise that someone would randomly talk to me - usually on the street my facial expression exudes, "I am hungry/cranky, you look like a donut, and I want to jump on you faster than a governor at the Emperor's VIP club" Kinda scares people away here in New York. I kindly asked the woman for advice and settled upon a red velvet cupcake. And a carrot cake cupcake. And an apricot square. That is all, I swear.... [Continue reading]
Apparently there's a lot that goes towards making an apartment a home. This shit never ends. Recently I installed some window air conditioning units.... [more]

You ever do this thing where you enjoy a meal, think it's OK on the price, then later on when you think back, you realize they gave you an order of... [more]
Sometimes it's very difficult to quantify the premium you pay for being in New York City. Even within city limits, pricing changes rapidly from one... [more]
