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.....
