Here's the recent happs:

this week has been a whirlwind of fun

Last Friday was Turnaround vs. Immediate - with lemon and chocolate sandwich cupcakes

Then Monday was Jang House, where we brought swirl and german chocolate jawns

Last night = Crescendolls and strawberry shortcake cupcakes



And Saturday night will be Live Forever, baked goods TBA.

Also - our camera is still uncharged (charger nowhere to be found), so here are some random pictures I've come across on the interwebs here and there

Okay, so that's all for now. Once we officially get the RB intern (which is also the Ubiq intern) this blog will, hopefully, be a bit more interesting.

Also: July 4th is going to be intense all across the city - but we'll be at Pedestrian for their location change reopening party (with tons of baked goodies) as well as the Barbary for the Vice party.

Peace out girl scout (cookie)!

Jang House pt. 1207t4

Yes, yes - last night was once again the Jang House.

It was quite the affair too. The Death Set was there to perform, and our boys Plastic Little raised the roof so to say.

Most importantly, we made sandwich cupcakes - chocolate with all sorts of frostings on the inside, and carrot cake with a butter cream filling.


oh - and it was Jah's birthday.... but no one told us ahead of time, so here's his impromptu bday cake (complete with cigarette candle).

Last night...

...we had a test-run for icecream cupcakes. So far, so good.

With all the extra batter we got a little creative:

1. We made about a dozen cupcakes for a friend, Anthony K's, art opening at The Bean - those seemed to go over pretty well:



2. since we were test-running on how high to fill each cup for the ice cream cupcakes, we subsequently ended up with quite a bit of tiny half-cupcakes. These all got turned into oreo cupcakes. originally there were going to go to the Khyber for Jacci's dj night with guest dj, Steven Bloodbath, BUT I had a headache and they instead were hand-delivered to bike messies earlier today.



3. believe it or not - we still had a tidbit of mix left, so we made or roommate a mini cake with frostinn'n'sprinkles [it was our thank you for fixing the lock on our front door, yay!]

Last night was a good time. Just a small blurb I wanted to share, (and I do sincerely wish there were pictures) - the two of us, in the cooler of the Barbary whipping a gigantic bowl of whipping cream for the shortcakes.... it was pretty ridiculous

Sneek peek

+ strawberries and fresh whipped cream!

So it's Monday again

Monday = Jang House [DUH!]



And it's not just any old jang... it's Em's birthday edition of the house!

Ya know, Em, the "Jang House Super Star". In other words the party's gonna be wild, the girls are gonna get crazy, and we'll all be rolling deep with motorcycles, cocaine, and a pit bull - we're plannin' to take all you bitches to the bone zone.

But on a more serious note: there should be some bbq, strawberry shortcake cupcakes, and possibly some cornbread (if your lucky.... well, if you're Mikey).

-Love'n'shortbread!

Oh god, it's already been a week

So this last week has been crazy. Although not much baking has gotten done...

FRIDAY was the Hail Social Remixes Party at Medusa. We baked a bunch of cupcakes for it actually, and then realized that we had run out of cellophane and ziplock bags... so Aileen rode with just a dozen cupcakes in one hand (still in the baking tray). Long story short - Aileen ran into a road barrier that night & Benny didn't get his cupcakes.

SATURDAY was Live Forever at the Barbary. We didn't bake for this one - but we would've if someone had clued us in that it was Michael Vincent Patrick's birthday.

MONDAY was of course Jang House. I'm still not sure who's idea it was on Saturday - but we made choclate and vanilla swirl cupcakes.



One last thing - next monday is everyone's favorite girl, Em's birthday! The party should be good times, with a little pregame bbq. And keep an eye out for some strawberry shortcake cupcakes.
