Hey Cupcake!

I don't have a cupcake obsession, really, but they just seem to be a hot thing right now. I was in Austin last week for work and we finished up shooting a couple of hours early, so I asked some of the local folks what to do and they said to check out downtown Austin and Hey Cupcake, a cupcake vendor parked in a lot on Congress. It sounded really fun, so we punched the address of the parking lot into the Garmin and took off.

We finally find it and it's basically a silver Airstream trailerhuge with a huge pink cupcake on top. I had the red velvet cupcake with cream cheese frosting and it was really yummy!

This got me thinking - how cool would it be to open a cupcake truck like those taco trucks that drive around and serve awesome Mexican food? I could just call it "The Cupcake Truck" and it would be like an ice cream truck, but with cupcakes! If I could charge $2.50 a cupcake like these folks, I'd be in business!

  2. Just edited my comment because I see that you've already been to Sprinkles, that other bastion of supreme cupcake goodness. No need to apologize for extensive cupcake coverage - I cannot think of a more fulfilling (or perhaps just filling) hobby.

    Hope you had a great time in Austin! And thanks for checking out my little slice of the internet.

  3. This is SO Austin! Why have I not heard of this? I live here! There is another cupcake place called Polkadots Cupcakes that my friend and I wanted to take the kiddos to but we may have to try this one out also. So cool.

Happy Pills

I'm a crazy person. At least, that's what I feel like some times. And it runs in my family. No, not really crazy (and don't take offense if you are one of me), but just clinically depressed and filled with anxiety. It's as if I don't have something to worry about in my head constantly, then I don't feel normal. Luckily, there's a pill for that. It's a bitter pill, one that I'll basically have to take the rest of my life, but I've slowly accepted that it's like any other disease, and just like diabetes or heart disease, that little pill is gonna make me better. But that little pill makes me gain weight, gives me the brain shivers when I miss it, and although I've tried to get off it multiple times, I just can't. So I guess that makes me an addict as well. But it's a pill that my grandparents and family didn't always have, and they suffer from it as well, so I should be thankful for this little red capsule of happiness...
