Charlotte Cupcakes - Cake Makin' Sisters

So, when I was on my way to Granny Mac's Bake Shop last week , I noticed there was another bakery in the strip mall right next door: Cake Makin' Sisters . Why not stop in and check it out? It's a new shop that opened up in the past few weeks. Apparently the owners took over the shop from a friend who wasn't able to operate the store anymore. It used to be Sweet Bliss Cupcakery. There was a nice selection of cupcakes to choose from -- nothing too innovative, but enough to give the customer a few choices. The first thing I noticed when I looked at the cupcakes, however, was how small they were. I've seen cupcakes that small before, but being right next to Granny Mac's? I don't know how they're going to make a profit. Competing with Granny Mac's is their problem though. My task was picking out two cupcakes to eat. I settled on a strawberry cupcake and an oreo cupcake.

TV's Most Sustainable Stars - 1 more addition

When I compiled a list of some of TV's most sustainable stars, I forgot about Katey Sagal . The cover of one of the recent issues of Entertainment Weekly made me realize that. I still remember her as Peg Bundy, so I sometimes forget that she's done things beyond Married with Children . After that show ended in 1997, she went on to be Hyde's mom on That 70's Show (for a few episodes anyway), lend her voice to the show Recess , and then landed the part as Jon Ritter's wife on 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter . Once that show ended, she made reoccurring guest appearances on Boston Legal and Lost . Watch Katey on Lost Meanwhile, since 1999 she's been a voice actress on Futurama . Since 2008 she's been part of the Sons of Anarchy cast. Not bad. Not bad at all. You've done well, Peg Bundy.
