The Rich shop together

Os that is what I saw this weekend. At my regular spot. in Beverly Hills. Known as Sprinkles Cupcakes!

Now I am FAR!!! FAR from rich, but I do make a pretty good salary. So I think treating myself to a cupcake, or two, or a dozen everyweekend is not a bad thing. Espcially when those cupcakes are soo dang good!!! Anywho, this time I did not order a dozen, because I planned a nice quiet weekend alone. Just stay home, relax, take a bath. You know CALM! And eating 12 cupcakes, alone, is just plan GREEDY. which meant I had to wait on that GOD AWFUL line, which really wasn't that bad because guess who was right behind me chatting it up!? Miss Paige Hurd. The daughter in Beauty Shop. The little girl in Everyone Hates Chris. Who honestly is just as gorgeous in person as she is in the picture below.



Now mind you she is not a "A" list star.. YET! but she seemed very down to earth, and her mother seemed like the type of woman to put her little ass back in line if she tried. So we talked about cupcakes, and I life and they made waiting in that line seem so nice. Really they made my saturday afternoon a great expreience. I hope they liked the cupcakes in the end because I did. ummmmmmmmm

Cupcakes runs!!!

So I am totally on my period... maybe it is the lack of a man in my life, or my sudden dedication to taking my shot every week, But seriously I am craving chocolate like never before!

So like any middle class american, I ordered up a dozen of the lovely Sprinles cupcakes. (Image from http://sprinklescupcakes.com)




Now I know you are all thinking I am crazy for paying 40 bucks for a dozen but you have no idea how addictive these cupcakes are. I MEAN seriously, people fight over them.. like when I went to get my lovely chocolate gift I had a reservation, and thus did not need to stand in line.. but let me tell you about this line! It is seriously like the welfare line but in Beverly Hills. At least 30 people are waiting. In line. For cupcakes. And the wait can be up to an hour and a half. FOR A CUPCAKE! Which is why I make RSVPs (min order 1 dozen) so I can just walk in!

So I walked into that front door and told them. "Coming to get RSVP," now at that exact time this fat man, who honestly did not even need to be eating cupcakes tells me "Cuse me honey but dont you see the line." So I fire back, "I am not your honey, and I have a reservation so I dont have to wait in line!" So the lady woman gives me my bag and I walk out, past the line, upset because he has ruined my afternoon delight. So, I did want any respectable ex-NYer would do, I start yelliing at him. "Next time you can take your fat ass online and make an RSVP instead of bothering me." WHEW!!!! Having released my anger I get into the car and drive off.. Happy.. and Excited.

Later that night I ate two cupcakes, and had an EVIL sugar rush! God I love sprinkles. (Thank you to all the people who made my sprinkles weekend possible, Angela, Howard, Jessica, Brian and the bakers in the back that cooked my cupcakes to perfection... )

Side note: If you are a sugar freck like me DO NOT GET THE CINNOMAN SUGAR cupcake, there is no frosting. Lucky I only got one of those because I would have been sourly disappointed.
