Pink lemony goodness
Iphone photos so pardon the color shifting. I had better outfit photos but I liked this. I usually make a face or wave at Dave to say I am ready to be done with the photos. Sometimes I throw gang signs. (when in reality I am an exact copy of all my cousin's facebook pictures. Why do they think this is cute?)

After work I decided to check out a new (to me) bakery I saw on Felicity Lingle's blog on Monday.
At 5pm they were pretty picked over. Which I saw as a very good sign.
I settled on a pink lemonaid. (with a red velvet for later. Later ended up being breakfast today!)
Ah nature's Ativan. Up until this point I had been having a REALLY bad day. I know you should never use food to cheer yourself up but damn if it didn't make it all go away.
Oh and I got a shot. Chocolate cup filled with vanilla bean frosting. I think Dave's exact words were "What the fuck is that?" Said very JEALOUSLY.Normally I feel bad when I have gluten around him but you know what? He says he doesn't mind so I ate away. Hey my gram is always baking for him! She always has something on a cake stand when we show up. She never makes things for me. :P
How is your Wednesday? In honor of Marie Antoinette, What is your favorite cake flavor?
Word is she never even said her famous cake quote but that is neither here nor thereeeeeeeee. I think spice cake would be mine. My wedding cake was a spice cake. I also like lemon cake. If you don't like cake you don't have to say that. Simply don't answer. :)

I loooove carrot cake and made a huge fancy one for my birthday last year!
I love carrot cake too! I've made one for my bday every year since I was 15 (I think I'm finally getting good at it,too Hah)
lemon cupcakes are my favorite. if they are pink, even better.
I love cake so freaking much. My all time favorite cake is probably our wedding cake, which was an almond liqueur white cake with amaretto buttercream frosting. OMG. I'm drooling just thinking about it. White wedding cake in general may be one of my top 3 cakes but that one was the best ever, not even just because it was mine.
i am hoping to have at least one layer of spice cake or carrot cake -- something autumny.
i also love red velvet, coconut cake, strawberry shortcake... honestly, really anything but chocolate. i have never really been a fan of chocolate cake.
Cake. Yum. The cupcakes look scrumptious! My favorite cakes though would be (a) carrot and (b) coconut.
I think I need a cupcake now. ;)
I love German chocolate cake. There's just something about that coconut and chocolate combination that I adore.
I'm so glad you went to check it out, it's too bad they don't do a gluten-free cupcake.
My favorite cake flavor is carrot.
my favorite cake of all time is german chocolate. yummmmm. I also really love carrot cake. both of these loves include the delicious frosting that accompanies them. cake sans frosting is not for moi! oh, unless it's pound cake.
For people who liked the dress. it is $20 off right now

I think I am the only one who doesn't like carrot cake. Well I would like it without the carrot, which is essentially spice cake. Which I LOVE!
I'm not crazy about carrot cake, but I love the cream cheese frosting.
My favorite is red velvet, but I don't turn up my nose at many flavors to begin with. I don't usually like lemon cake, but it's Erik's favorite so I kept tinkering with it and I finally found a recipe that I like too.
A little weird but my FAVORITE is my mom's red velvet, iced with vanilla and then saran wrapped and left on the counter overnight. I like her cakes best the morning after.
This branch is on Newbury if you have a hankering some day!
My day is actually going pretty well. I managed to snag a room at the hotel where I'll be taking the bar, so that will make my life a little easier in two weeks.

As for cake flavours, well, we're in the midst of figuring that out for our wedding. I can't wait for the weekend we get to go from one shop to another for all the tastings! I'm more excited about that than the wedding!
I need to find a place that does SHOTS like that. Bliss!
My favorite is plain, old birthday cake. Yellow cake, white frosting. Love it!
And any kind of wedding cake. I keep telling my co-worker that she needs to get married just so I can go to a wedding and have wedding cake.
Ugh. Now I want cake. Darn it!
I really have to find a good cupcake bakery. I went to "Cupcake Jones" last time I was in Portland Oregon but there is nothing around here. I shall just have to dream. ;-)
BTW red accessories are just heaven on you!!! That whole look is terrific really.
