I Love Cupcakes

Cupcakes by Heather & Lori
I am completely obsessed with the cupcake store. This delicious obsession was born a few years ago and quickly became a tradition for Mark and I. Every celebration Mark and I share always involves a trip to the cupcake store. In fact, I have a box under my bed full of memories from our 5 year long relationship and the majority of the box is full of partial cupcake boxes with the cupcake symbol and a handwritten date.  

I remember for one of our anniversaries I was living with Jill (Mark's sister) at Mike and Asha's apartment and I had left out the box on the counter. Jill naturally thought to throw it away since it was a dirty empty cupcake box that she was unaware had emotional ties to me. This resulted in my very first dumpster dive. I sifted through many people's garbage bags and saw the shiny cupcake symbol. Embarrassed to admit, I saved it and still have it.





Just last week for Mark's and my 5 year anniversary, he surprised me with a beautiful wicker basket for my bicycle. Inside the basket was a perfect white box with the cupcake sticker sparkling. The red velvet and sweet sixteen cupcakes were a fantastic choice. He knows me well!

  1. Wow, I feel bad that I live about...31 seconds from the Cupcake store on Broadway, and I've only been there once...
