Cupcakes in the Morning

“We merely moved our $22 bag of cupcakes from the Magnolia Bakery out of the way to avoid having it splattered with blood and went on with our conversation.”

— I don’t know why I didn’t know about these daily diary entries submitted by readers to the Times City Room blog, but I came across this entry this morning, and was a little troubled — somewhat because of the blood, but mostly because half a dozen cupcakes from Magnolia Bakery costs $22 (they’re $3.50 each). And they’re not worth it!
