Cupcakes anyone?
Today I had lunch with the girls and afterward, we stopped off at Sweet Mandy B's, the cute bakery next to the restaurant, for a little snack. This bakery has the world's best cupcakes. I am not exaggerating. We say they are like crack.
The great thing is that you can get mini cupcakes at SMB's. They are like a two-bite version of the large ones, perfect for an afternoon snack.
Me: "Do you have any mini cupcakes today?"
Surly counter girl: "NO. We only make those for special orders and any you have seen out are just extras from those orders."
(Me in my head): Hmmm. Every single time I have been here, they have had them. That's weird. But, OK. And wow, those cookies look good. And pie! They have pie! Oh, right I need to order.
Me: "OooooKay. I guess I will have two large vanilla cupcakes then. And two cookies."
Surly Counter Girl: "That'll be $7.50."
As I am putting my change in my pocket, I see another bakery worker placing a tray of mini cupcakes ON THE COUNTER FOR PURCHASE. Followed by another tray.
My friend Leah is now doing a double-take. I am incredulous. I say to Surly Counter Girl, "Ummm. Hey, look, mini cupcakes!"
SHE IGNORES ME. Completely looks away and ignores me.
My friend Sam says she is going to order one, would I like one? I tell her no, clearly those are a figment of our imagination because they don't have any mini cupcakes. It's like a mirage in the desert. Or the dessert in this case.
Surly Counter Girl continues to ignore us until we leave.
WTF?????
