Two times the cupcakes!

Happy Cupcake Saturday, all!  This week was actually a little bit of a change up for me b/c my usual Saturday sidekick requested the day off.  In her place was an equally enthusiastic cupcake lover, thank goodness!  I think I tend to hire on ability to love cupcakes b/c all of my staff LOVES Cupcake Saturday!  :)  All good people, they are....
My usual Saturday sidekick actually chipped in and bought cupcakes on Friday b/c she wouldn't be able to indulge on Saturday.  Unfortunately, Friday was a CRAZY day at the store and by the time we got the cupcakes in hand we had literally a minute to enjoy them and get back to work. Alas, no picture.  My Friday cupcake was mint chocolate.  Chocolate cupcake with mint frosting....it was really delicious, and like I said, well earned after a crazy 9 hour shift of standing and waiting on tourists and their kids.  :)  Keep smiling.
Saturday I decided to try a staple of Cupcake Charlie's-Carly's chocolate chip.  I don't know who Carly is or why she has a cupcake named after her but it was delicious and lucky girl! This was a vanilla cupcake with chocolate chips through it.  It had a yummy vanilla frosting on top, topped with chips and a chocolate chip cookie.  It was light and moist and the frosting was sugary and sweet.  Perfect for what turned out to be a dramatic Saturday afternoon with one particular awful customer.  I tend to let awful people really get to me, which I wish I could just let go of.  The cupcake definitely helped to soothe the complaint.  Yay for sugar!  Onto next Saturday.....
