Scrum-diddly-umptious!

Like any business, owning a cupcake bakery has its pros and cons. One of the cons is ... bringing home cupcakes from work because they have to be eaten. One of the pros is ... bringing home cupcakes from work so that they can be eaten!!!

Well, today I called in a request for a variety pack to be brought home and I must say I'm pleased as punch to have these four scrum-diddly-umptious flavors to choose from. 

I now have a Pistachio in my possession so I can devour, I mean try, it without further hesitation. The Chocolate Overload is a given, and I'll eat the Vanilla Bean with joy and slip off into a right nice sugar sleep for the night. 

The Pumpkin Spice Latte I believe I'll save for breakfast. It should go down nicely with a cup of coffee. I can already picture it tasting divinely as I sit swaddled in my Snuggie, nice and warm with a book in hand, in my favorite chair. 

The score: Jack Frost with winter storm, 1. Zari with book, coffee and a Pumpkin Spice Latte cupcake, 1000!  

Oh, Oh, Pistachio!

I have to confess I'm a picky eater. I have a pretty short list of things that I eat out of all of the billions of delicacies available for man to devour. I even like my food separated on my plate - or better yet one thing on a plate and everything else in a bowl or on a saucer - so nothing intermingles. 

From my family's bakery, Cupcakes Bakery & Deli in Kennewick, Wash., I've basically only eaten chocolate cupcakes with cream cheese frosting since 2009. Chocolate. It's what I do, it's who I am. But, in October I ate some vanilla wedding cake because I was craving massive amounts of sugar one evening, and vanilla cake was all that was available. 

Let me tell you. It was phenomenal! No lie. When I eat vanilla cake - and, seriously, I try not to - I have to have Haagen Dasz vanilla ice cream at the ready. And, I need enough ice cream to match every bite of cake. O_O But, it was so moist and delicious I didn't need ice cream and I ate so much of it, I laid flat on my back in front of the fire place to digest and recover from sugar coma. 

Since then, through coercion, I've tried Strawberry Cheesecake and, willingly, Blueberry Cheesecake. And, now, these Pistachio cupcakes are beckoning me with a force I may not be able to withstand. 

Oh, oh, Pistachio! I wish you'd stop calling my name. 

Have you tried these? What did you think? 

They're out! Come and get your Cupcake On!
