Cupcakes Get Me Hot & Bothered
July 10th, 2008 Posted in Happiness, New York, Understanding Women
What’s sexier than cupcakes? Nothing. Oooh, yes! Cupcakes. Quick! Someone buy one, rub the frosting all over me and help me lick it off. ;) As I mentioned in my earlier post today, I felt like crap when I woke up this morning. I totally rebounded after a good night’s sleep, a full morning spent in bed, lunch with sweet little Rachel Kramer Bussel and, of course, a cupcake. Video follows. YouTube has been TOTALLY misbehaving lately. So, if you get the “This Video Is No Longer Available” error, click this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JphguBrV4BY.

Neurotic? You? No way. I know tons of people who have established techniques for cupcake eating. You’re definitely not the only one. I myself have a technique for eating M&Ms.

i get my sweet treats at the cupcake cafe on 9th & across from port authority. they do not look hard & crusty like that thang there!
i bring it home, cut it down the center & wrap one half in the cupcake paper to pretend i’m going to eat it tomorrow instead of in a few hours.

I love cupcakes even though I should have wheat free cakes, I will make an allowance for cupcakes. This video makes me hungry lol!

I am so glad this came up because I have [possibly stupid]questions (curiosities). When did cupcakes become en vogue again? Or did they never go out of style? What’s the link between sex/relationship writers and cupcakes? Excuse my ignorance and keep in mind that this comment was made right before I watched the video. :)
Between you, Desiree, and Rachel I’m going to be running to a bakery soon. And I’m not sure why, but I’m now looking at cupcakes like little frosted breasts(this was before now, mind you). Weird, huh? I should perhaps check out Cupcake sisters a little more, I guess, for the dope on the cupcake side.

Was that cupcake anchored to the bottom of the bag?

@ lamesabassman: Book’s coming along well; thanks for asking. I’ve working on another chapter this weekend.
@ Pegs: Okay, you can’t say you have a technique for eating M&Ms without sharing it with us!!! :)
@ sis.in Hell’sKitch: That’s funny! If you’re near port authority on 9th, it’s soooo worth going 15 blocks south to Billy’s. I swear they’ve got the best cupcakes in the city!!
@ marilyn: Eat a cupcake!! :) I’m sure somebody’s got wheat free one’s somewhere.
@ Roddykat: It’s all about Rachel Kramer Bussel!! Her cupcakes bring all sex-writing boys and girls to the yard.
@ Brenz: Hell, you’d think so! :) I didn’t wanna ruin the frosting, and it took me forever to get it out of the bag without doing so.

The M&M technique is thus: There is always an imbalance of colors in the bag. Eat the M&Ms of the color that is most plentiful until you have an equal number of all colors represented. Then, eat one of each color (or handfuls representing each of the colors, if you can’t do one at a time) until you have exhausted the supply of the yummy candies.
You knew it had to be math-related, didn’t you? And mildly neurotic? Yes, I know. I contend that my Obsessive Compulsive Disorder still is not as severe a case as my sister’s.

not 2 many cupcakes….. for that will only lead to M&M and other tawdry wonders
of the tastebuds……
like chocolate fudge brownies ….. heavy ‘n’ thick…..
lamesabassman……. keep ya’ head up…… and bring tha’ milk…. please..

@ Pegs: You’re amazing woman!! I so didn’t even know that there was an unequal number of colors in the bag. :) It’s kind of like Gummi Bears. I usually eat all the orange, green and yellows ones. When there’s only red and white ones left, I offer them to friends. See, THAT’S caring — giving other folks the shit you don’t want. ;)

Last Saturday, I bought a yummy cupcake in EH. Guess what? Matthieu wouldn’t stop calling my cupcake a muffin.
Although cupcakes and muffins are like brothers and sisters. I felt serously FOR my cupcake.
Do you feel insulted when your cupcake is called a muffin?

I would absofuckinglutely feel insulted!!! :) You are 100% correct, Lisa. Altough cupcakes and muffins belong to the same family, they are certainly NOT the same thing. See: “The Cupcake vs. Muffin Debate” http://www.recipezaar.com/sitenews/post.php?pid=637
