I Did It and I Am Glad!

I have made a new blogging friend. Her name is Melissa RightMoon? We found each other through Danny Gregory's blog.
We met in person, for real, today. We met up and talked up a storm at Amy's Bread, a great bakery on 9th between 46th and 47th.
Melissa is intelligent, thoughtful, and extremely adventurous and she is a musician to boot. It takes chutzpah to make plans with someone you have met through the World Wide Web, I give us three succulent and juicy, golden, sparkly stars for meeting up close and personal.
So, now.
I think Amy's is really good. They have awesome Cheese Biscuits. As far as I am concerned cheese biscuits or biscuits of any sort, are high on the list of very edible and delicious.
But.
Then, there are Cupcakes from the Cupcake Cafe.
I severely limit my sugar intake as much as humanly possible. No sugar in my coffee, I read labels. Sugar is a treat, and boy were these cupcakes a treat.
I had two.
One chocolate and one vanilla with walnuts (for protein!). If I could do it all over again, I would have eaten the walnut one first because I love chocolate.
This means that I have had three days in a row of high sugar intake. Saturday we celebrated my Dad's birthday with a chocolate mouse cake from 4 and 20 Blackbirds. Nothing to sneeze at, that there bakery. We were given left overs, which we forced ourselves to eat last night.
I am going to have sugar withdrawal tomorrow! MMM-MM-MM.
Apparently Melissa's man is a cupcake afficienado and has created his own rating system. I would love to know more about this...
I am also told that I need to eat cupcakes from Magnolia's, which in comparison, don't look
half as good!
All that aside, I honor the really excited and warm feeling I got when I checked in with my body about meeting Melissa. I hope I am able to hear her sing and that we continue meeting up!
And Melissa? Buy the Gocco.
