Please help me stop
Josh bought cupcakes to take to work with him this week. Sweet Mandy B's cupcakes, to be specific. If you're not from Chicago, you wouldn't know anything about them, but suffice it to say, they are like crack.
Not one to let annoying customer service hinder my love of cupcakes, I have returned to this bakery time and time again since The Mini Cupcake Debacle, as chronicled on this site two long years ago.
I made Josh buy me an extra one when he made his purchase, just for kicks. I am pregnant, I can indulge. That was Monday. Tuesday, I went to a birthday dinner for a friend and they had Sweet Mandy B's cake for dessert. Wednesday, Josh brought a few leftover cupcakes home with him from his work party and I plucked one from the box and ate it. Tonight, one of the last two cupcakes was calling me forlornly from the kitchen. I had to eat it -- it begged me to.
To sum up: four consecutive days of cake. There is one lonely cupcake left in the box right now. It is sleeping. I see it from where I am sitting. It's all soft and sugary in its purple blanket of frosting. I know with all my heart I will eat it tomorrow.
Please, someone help me. I have an addiction. And I am powerless.

I am committed to making healthy cup cakes for you. They should be edible. and if not there is always sweet and sour dressing from Monicals that makes everthing taste better.
Yum! I don't think I would have the self control to leave one cupcake just sitting there. Even for one day. Kudos!
And this is why you are a naturally thin person.
If I were you, there would be no cupcake in the box right now-- I would be covered in frosting and crumbs and in the middle of a shame spiralnicru
shame spiral.
nicru was the secret code word I had to type to prove I am not spam.
I don't think that cupcake addiction is an actual addiction. I say eat the cupcake!!
I absolutely would not have any self-control - kudos you have resisted the last one for as long as you have.
Love your blog! You are sooo fun! Oh, EAT THE CUPCAKE!
