A Happy Cupcake New Year Ahead

Well, it’s here! 2012 I always start the new year a little apprehensive - kinda afraid to stick my nose out until I get a feel for what I think lies ahead but not this year! I’m going boldly into the new year and trying some things that I had wanted to but just didn’t have the time in 2011. Now I’m not complaining about 2011 - Lots of new friends came into our shop for the first time, Cupcake Wars - - twice :D, cupcakes at the Governor’s mansion and opening the second shop! The upside to being busy is that you are; the downside is that all you get to do sometime is react as opposed to plan. So - for 2012 my commitment is to slow down! Slow down and enjoy the moment and be in the present.  You’ll notice this commitment carrying over to the shops. How you ask?

Monday mini’s • we will carry mini’s of all of our cupcake flavors on Monday’s.  We invite you to stop in for a cup of coffee, cocoa or ice cold milk and have a mini…or two!

Cupcake decorating classes • I’ve been saying that we’re going to do it but now we really are! Look for one to be offered in late January and another in early February to learn how to frost and decorate cupcakes, at home, in time for Valentine’s Day.

Text messages • I personally have a problem with the amount of texts I send a day so I want to text you, too, with specials, happy hours and the announcement of new flavors or contests. So, be on the lookout for that!

For the kids! • We love our littlest visitors and want them to have a great time while they are there.  We will have our house made hot chocolate or ice cold milk for our little cupcake munchkins. While you’re there, we have games, puzzles and coloring pages to keep everyone happy so please ask your cupcake helper where they are stashed!  (I’ve seen the cupcake helpers coloring, too)

Oh! speaking of kids • Our party room is available for cupcake birthday parties tailored to all age groups! For more details, email us at celebrate@justcupcakes.net

So, join me and slow down, just for a little while :-) and enjoy January and just wait to see what we have in store for February!
