In absence of love

Yes, this post will undoubtedly brand me a woman. And I don't care.

Thursday, while on my lunch break, my manager and I visited a new cupcake boutique on Little Santa Monica Blvd. She showed me their daily menu, which consists solely of cupcakes. No cookies. No other confections. Just cupcakes.

I would never have expected such a limited venue to last in Beverly Hills, but at 3 p.m., the line was still out the door. And once I tasted the sweet savory sinfulness of the double chocolate cupcake, I knew why. MMMMMMMMMM.

As I chatted with the owner and his wife, I learned that not only was he from Oklahoma City, but went to my rival high school, as well. So in support of Oklahomans and cupcakes, visit Sprinkles Cupcakes (the Web site displays their daily menu). Your inner-woman will thank you.
