PhDCupcaker

I have not been good about posting my Sweet Places adventures… Although I have been trying to keep up by updating my Sweets Map! I just think that is so cool. Anyway, here is one from April…I had been scheming for quite a while with a faculty member to hit this cupcake place called The Flying Cupcake when we were at a conference in Indianapolis, IN – the very same conference to which I had brought my own geometric cupcakes. We looked for times when we were both free and we just couldn’t find the time to go together. We both  had pretty tight schedules. I was able to secure a little bit of time and told her I would bring her back a cupcake. She just wanted one… but of course I couldn’t resist buying a few more. The place was about a 20 minute walk from my hotel. When I had been walking for a while I started to think maybe I missed it… and then,  there it was just this little shop with this cute little awning right on the corner… It was pretty empty in the area and if I wasn’t looking closely I may have missed it altogether. There was no way I was going to walk this far and not get cupcakes! :-) They had a great variety of cupcakes in all different sizes. Check out their menu here. It wasn’t that cheap because not only did I end up getting some jumbo filled cupcakes, but also because I bought a t-shirt… I figured you can never have too many cupcake shirts, but maybe that is not true. Unfortunately, I don’t have any pictures of the cupcakes. I ended  up bringing a few of them to an event the day I bought them and everyone thought they were tasty… I felt kind of like the “Crazy Cat Lady, except I guess I was the “Crazy Cupcake Lady” bringing cupcakes with me everywhere I went… I guess people don’t mind too much though because cupcakes are so tasty! :-)  Here’s a close-up of their awning with their cute flying cupcake logo!
