While at Sprinkles Cupcakes today I couldn't resist but film a little video for you. In this video, I give thanks to my lovely readers (that's you, hot stuff), share my cupcakes-as-metaphor-for-life-and-side-projects wisdom, and disclose my amazing method for eating a cupcake so that you maximize the bliss in every bite. The video (click here if you don't see it below) is just under 3 minutes:
Want an extra laugh? Watch the (embarrassing) outtakes of me and my dad actually eating the cupcake (per my ingenious method).
While you've got your volume up...
