V-Day Yum!

Dr. J and I typically bake "Lust Cookies" for Valentine's Day. But this year, the cookie-baking got scuttled for three reasons . . . (1) we were busy meeting with our Realtor putting in an offer on a house; (2) the snow and ice storm prevented us from safely making it to the sto' to purchase the ingredients (okay, so we failed to think ahead); and (3) SOMEBODY locked their keys in their car on V-Day after work, and thus had to wait until AAA came to rescue them, getting home late in the process.

Being as Dr. J was away this past weekend on business, I decided to surprise him with a belated V-Day fieldtrip to celebrate. I had read about this newish cupcake bakery, Dozen Cupcakes, in Squirrel Hill, and just knew, as soon as I checked out their web site, that is was THEE perfect place to take my sweetie, a cupcake aficionado!

We had a blast, munching on cupcakes and drinking our little cartons of milk (skim, of course!). It really is a teeny-tiny shop, but man, do their cupcakes pack a wallop! Aahhhhh, were they ever yummy!!! Mmmmm!!!!!!!!
