I have the worse sweet teeth in the world today! I understand that today is national Donut Day but I’m not really a donut girl lol. I’m more of a cupcake kinda girl.I think they’re so cute and just enough to satisfy my forever craving sweet tooth. I thought these cupcakes were so cute and oh so delicious looking. Yes lawd!
I was on the grind today by going to visit coffee shop owner Cassandra Ingram . She has owned her hip and swanky coffee shop Urban Grind for 4 years now. She lived in Manhattan, Ny for many years and wanted to come to Atlanta and bring a different flavor to coffee shops. She wanted her coffee shop to remind her of all the diversity she saw back home in the big apple.
We sat down and chatted and I loved her spirit. She told me the many challenges she faced when trying to open her own business, and maintaining it. She has lots of repeat customers, that love to just hang out and drink coffee, relax and meet up with friends. Later on you can come back and heat open mic, live music, poetry or see artwork exhibits, you just never know.

She offered me the Pesto chicken sandwich and a slice of red velvet cake, yum! She said the sandwiches are great sellers and ofcourse the different brands of coffee. Im not a coffee drinker but I would just come to hang out! I really felt comfy and at home in her place.

After we chatted, I took her outside to show her my 2010 Cadillac SRX! She loved it and said, “Wow, Cadillac has really stepped it up”. She loved all the room and the fancy tv’s in the back seats.

Yes, I was weak today and gave in on getting some Cami Cakes! They are soo good and I couldnt resist since I was across the street lol. They were calling my name the whole time and I started getting the shakes. Then to make matters worse, Cami Cakes started tweeting me saying,Tami we’re right here if you need us. Damn I gave in! I must admit, I only eat them on special occasions and today was my dear friends birthday so I treated her to a couple of them. I also treated myself to several.
Oh Lawd, help me!
Look at those pink ones! Pinkalicious!
I’ll take all of those please, don’t judge me!
Funny thing I had tweeted that I was at Cami Cakes and Lisa Wu Hartwell who is my trainer, called me…Yikes! I was scarred to pick up the phone but I answered and Lisa said, you know your not suppose to have any cupcakes right? Damn that twitter it will get you caught up! Lisa then said, get me some too! Ha! That was funny as heck! See everyone is cracked out on Cami Cakes!
Looky, Looky!
Oh yeah, they look good don’t they!
