My New Digs!

I recently moved with my boyfriend from Hyde Park to Channelside (Downtown Tampa). WE moved into The Place at Channelside and we love it! Although, we have had two complaints from our fellow tenants within our first week living there.

1st Complaint: House warming party (too loud and too late) - I don't get this....we rented the club room out which is fan-flippin tastic, so it's not like we are in our place making all the noise. Second, have the development isn't even leased out or sold. So, who's complainin?!?

2nd Complaint: Memorial Day (climbing over our balcony wall to get to the pool). Our unit is located on the pool deck; we look directly out at the hot tub and pool. What the french toast?! Who has absolutely no life that they have to complain about a couple people climbing over their own balcony ON MEMORIAL DAY???!!

Nothing Sweet about this!

Anyhow..I figure best to figure out whatever one will complain about right off the bat...no sense in dragging it out for a couple years!! We are looking forward to screwing something else up this week!

House Warming Party!

What's a house warming party without any sweets?! Not my house warming party; thats for sure!

I fell in love with this new cupcake joint "Frostings, etc." located on Howard Avenue in Hyde Park, a block from my previous house. It's kind of a bitter, but definitely "Sweet" feeling. They opened for business the week I moved.

They have cupcakes for young and the restless!! My favorite of course are the alcoholic/cocktail inspired cupcakes! Naming in order of appearance (top to bottom): Tierra Masu, Pina Colada, Peach & Pear Bellini, Cosmopolitan, Margarita, Chocolate & Guinness, Chocolate Red Wine with Brie Cheese Frosting (OMG!)

Every single cupcake is a must have! All of the guests loved them. We even bribed the security guard in our condo with a few cupcakes, who wanted to shut our party down because of noise and time (a little after mindnight), to let us mingle for a little longer! 1 cupacake = 30 minutes ... needless to say he gladly accepted two more later on for another hour with our friends!

The Beggining of Everything!!!

Please excuse the "dust" (lack of information & personality). It is my goal to have this up and running as quickly as possible!

Thanks so much for your patience!
