yesterday we talked about balls and it offended some people.? so i thought i’d come up with a female euphemism to complete the equation today. :)
my friend brandi (who is also the boss man’s wife) and i went to lunch, and more importantly – dessert – yesterday.? we visited gigi’s cupcakes over by vanderbilt and, as boomama would say,
OH MY LANDS!!!
heaven.
cupcakes are my kryptonite. i can never say no. and now that i have been to gigi’s, i fear i will be visiting over and over and over again…and that will just be tomorrow.
what’s your favorite sweet treat?

Cupcakes are my sweetheart too. I mean sweet treat. I’m right there with you, and I’m going to pretend that little shop doesn’t exist.
I eat too many of these. When I was suffering my recent costume dilemma my too honest middle child said, “You’re gonna have to loose a LOT of weight to wear that costume.
Which made me immediately want a cupcake.
Anne…I’m speaking on “Great Sex” this Sunday at UpRising Church, and your blog posts are messing with me big time!! :) But, giving me some wonderful “illustrations”!
just wrong! :)
hmmm…most things with chocolate work for me…lately a fan of Brewster’s Peanut Butter Cup Sundae.
but, i’ll take a couple of those cupcakes!
We have a place near me called Sweet that has big huge cupcakes like your picture. I have had a different one everytime I have been there.
My favorite part is the really COLD organic milk that they serve with the cupcakes. I could drink a gallon of that milk in one sitting!
whoa, those are some fairly impressive treats.
out here in boston have have a great pastry shop called mike’s pastries. if you ever come out to this area, please make sure to visit it
Those look like nothing more than a medium to legitimate the delivery of icing into your body.
That is a lot of icing.
Anne, if you like cupcakes then you have see this: http://www.saintcupcake.com
so i know where we’re going when you and i rendezvous in l.a. :)
I can do without cake or cupcakes but don’t you dare try to steal my Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream! :) Ice cream is my weakness period especially if there is any chocolate in it.
uh anne – those cupcakes are TINY. i guess everything is relative to what your benchmark might be. anyway, i do love cupcakes and especially with chocolate icing on them
yum!
strawberry shortcake. mmm…
you should rename your blog based on popular post themes. Boobie, Balls, and Cupcakes. : )
#10 tony – that’s funny.
waiting for the butt shot now.
pumpkins work pretty good for the butt..
Some people like big cupcakes, some little. I personally enjoy an intelligent conversation. I also like peanut butter pie and coffee.
I like moist, I like dark.
…so fudge brownies.
Ah, I miss Gigis! That was one of my favorite places in Nashville; try the carrot cake ones, and the malt frosting is good too. Of course, I never found a flavor there that I didn’t like.
You big jerk! Those were mine!!!!
I was in New York this past April and visited Magnolia Bakery. I had the red velvet cupcake. :) They had T-shirts for sale that said, “Cupcakes make peole happy!” Love that.
It’s nice to know you “smooth things over” by equally offended everyone.
LOL.
My favorite sweet treat: Jellybeans.
I like my sugar with just a little added color, thank you very much.
ANYTHING that’s even kinda quality chocolate… or ice cream. Easy to please, really.
This year, however, has been the “year of the cupcake” for 4 outs 5 of our kids’ b-days!
Turned sweet by heat! Creme Brulee!!
ANYTHING chocolatey, I love peanut butter and chocolate, so Reese’s or Hershey’s has a chocolate and PB bar, and it is so heavenly!
I’ve never been to this place. Sounds delicious. I’ll have to bring my wife there some time. She loves chocolate (don’t all women? what’s the deal with THAT…?)
Braum’s strawberry (small) : ) sundae!!!!! bring it on!!!!!! no nuts please!!! not too much whip creme!!!! Those humongous cupcakes look yummmy too!
My favorite treats are cupcakes from The Sweet Diva. They rock!
Those cup cakes are amazing. I love Pumpkin Pie, my friends recipe, I can eat an entire pie by myself.
Ahhh, sweet Gigi’s. Lindsey and I have “Cupcake Fridays” and go there. My favorite so far is the Golden Brown. DIVINE. They change their specials each day…so I think we may alternate days from now on!
My favorite sweet thing is anything chocolate. My special weakness is Honey Buns.
I could go for a cupcake right now…
me and whit got one from the gigi’s kiosk in the cool springs galleria. they’re amazing! strawberry all the way.
Lindt dark chocolate truffles. I keep a stash in my kitchen cupboard. Everyone in my house knows not to touch it. :)
Cupcakes are good. I’ll pass for cheesecake.
I don’t think I have ever seen a cupcake that big before…….WOW!
Ok. I’ve heard these are the best in town. I write at JJ’s next door all the time but just haven’t made the ten steps across the street. But the one on the right, with the chocolate chips, makes me think I will be visiting there tomorrow.
Brownies with m&m’s in them!
You should send them to me.
oh. dang. i’m booking my flight to Nashville now just to visit Gigi. I love all things sweet, especially Eileen’s iced sugar cookies. http://www.eileenscookies.com/, find one near you. I like the concept of Pokey O’s in Dallas.
