I was hanging out downtown today, waiting for Napoleon to be groomed at pussy and pooch, the overly elite pet spot downtown. He now smells like blueberries because they spray him with blueberry dog cologne...
Anyway, as I was waiting for him to be ready, I ran into the Big Man himself, Chip Brown, owner and creator of Big Man Bakes cupcake shop(s). I told him I love his cupcakes (true story, they are delish) He told me that they will now be opening at 8 every morning, serving Handsome Coffee. Um, ok! That sounds awesome, but wait, there's more: This week if you buy a coffee, either size, you get a free mini cupcake. Maybe one day after yoga I will wander over that way and be bad with an old school or a black & white with a coffee.
I ordered Big Man Bakes mini's for Danny's surprise party that I threw him in March. All the flavors are great and I highly recommend giving the cupcakes a try. Frosted and Sprinkles are still my favorites, but his come in a close third.
While I'm on the topic of treats, let's talk yogurtland. I always get Taro with kit kat bits and mochi. Always. However, this summer they are doing this thing where they have "scoured the globe" to find new flavors. This flavor quest has brought some really awful flavors, such as the sticky toffee pudding, creme brûlée, and the spiced chai, all of which I tried samples of and all of which taste nothing like what their actual counterparts should. Therefore, I was a bit apprehensive when trying the Mexican Hot Chocolate flavor last night. Big surprise, it was delicious! I actually mixed it up and did half Taro, half Mexican Hot Chocolate, plus the kit kat and the mochi, of course. I hope that Mexican Hot Chocolate is a flavor that sticks around at my local yogurtland.
