It annoys me to see the massive (around the block deep) at Georgetown cupcake. Even after they moved to a larger location. I pity all the guys stuck in line, but then they have these goofy satifised grins on their faces.

Pebble, I happen to agree with you that a good bagel is more impressive than a cupcake, but I find the homophobia and misogyny of your post totally repellent. Must every thread descend to the gutter?

of course there are. there are chocolate cakes that are made with chocolate, chocolate cakes that are made from chocolate and cocoa and chocolate cakes that are made from cocoa. the thing that makes a red velvet cake particular is the combination of cocoa and buttermilk. OK?
