resistance


I'm supposed to only be eating one baked goody a day because sugar makes me ill (what kind of bastard trick is that for the universe to play on a girl who comes from a long line of sugar/cake addicts?*) and today I already had a toasted coconut doughnut. But N's out watching the football in some bar and there's a cupcake shop right under our apartment and I'm fucked if I can resist.

*I don't use that word lightly. No way, nuh huh.

  5. Aaaand that pretty much settles it. I've been wanting to bake all week, and now I have to. That picture just sent my sugar cravings over the edge.

    I would be hopeless trying to resist a cupcake shop downstairs from me.

  8. Thanks Amanda, that really helps with the whole behaving thing!

    @esb, uh huh. You don't never make an exception. Not even for donuts.

  9. Lovely Peonies, it's a good thing you're in NYC, where there are many options for sugar-free treats! Try babycakes - http://www.babycakesnyc.com/ - for sugarless and wheatless (for ESB and me) treats!

  11. What's worse ~ ill-temper due to going without or ill-mannered due to caving in?

  16. Oh pretty! And I dare say yummy too. I can't give any advice as I just ate a cupcake. Which I probably shouldn't have. :-S

  17. I can totally relate...sugar & I don't get along either. Yes it's a cruel, horrible joke, BUT as you've done w/ this lovely shot, pour your longing for these sweet treats into more gorgeous pictures. Then you can "enjoy" them without limits and even when back home!

  20. You live right above a cupcake shop?! I'm so jealous, and also so glad I don't. 'cause I COULD NOT resist. If I lived there I would be very rolly polly very quickly.
