operation: cupcakes


so i got the hankering for cupcakes (surprisingly not cheese)... unfortunately there's no curbside cupcakes here (or at least not to me knowledge)...



thanks to yelp i started my search for cupcakes in harlem (washington heights)...found some places, not too close. with this i decided to grin & bear. queshia b was going to MAKE cupcakes! went to corner store & bought mix, frosting...wait! no muffin pans?? so store didn't have muffin pans, smoe doesn't have muffin pans. looks like my cupcake craving just turned into CAKE craving.

i don't like having the lead role in baking (mixing) so i left that to smoe, i did prepare stuff to be mixed & took out pans & frosting & put it in oven though (i prefer the supporting roles)!...we cal this cake, blac man (pac man's black neighbor)

"Nintendo A Capella"

awesome!

new artist: livvi franc

again not really "new", but new to me. as i was listening to omarion's speeding saw this chic that looked like ciara, so decided to click on her video & see what she sounded like...upon a closer look she doesn't look (or sound) like ciara & i like her



apparently, livvi has bajan heritage too, but more talented than rihanna as she sounds better & writes a lot (sorry for that unecessary low blow). here's her website




alexander mcqueen...

unfortunately, lee alexander mcqueen was found dead in his place yesterday...so far it's said to be suicide. there was a huge outpour on twitter. very sad in deed, but made me think of how when famous people die you think you know them...when we don't at all. (awesome article i read yesterday, learned a lot)

i know some of his fashions, but more so i know my bro wears him as i still have my bro's scarf ------------>

here's an album of a few of his designs

armadillo feet... i mean shoes


seen these shoes around, after reading this article i understand them a bit more. Still would NOT wear them as i think they'd leave me w/ armadillo feet :)

i appreaciate daily beast for shedding light on this fashion situation but aren't there bigger fish to fry in the world than a (super) limited pair of 10,000???? (reason #198 of why i'd never make it in fashion industry)

hipsters jerk

1 of my faaaaav dances so think it's hilarious when people make fun...




not sure why people make fun of "hipsters" so much, i think they're great. BUT i also don't see an issue w/ "hypebeasts" so may not be the best judge of diff social groups :)

google earth guys

dream jacket & no label watches

soooo it all started when @harperlhuit introduced me to lateboots a few months ago (or maybe like 2, don't remember)...while flipping through post i saw something & fell in love. nope wasn't a boy, but a beautiful beautiful thing!

the 1 & only brian wood killed the count varsity jacket!! no no it's not a new item, but new to me!
oh & there was also a limited edition (60) made fall 08...more info on that in this awesome blog post.


in other news, as i was searching for my jacket & came across no label watches. i heard of these last year when we were in miami & asked a guy what kind of watch he was wearing. he said, "ok, so this may sound funny but it's calle no label by who gives a fuck"...my friend and i chuckled then walked away from him bc we thought he was being sarcastic. until tonite! when i see the nice chap was telling the truth!

25 punched in ze face

via complex it was disturbing, yet i had to continue to scroll. as long as you're not squeamish, worth checking out this link to see crazy punches in the face!

uncensored drake, wayne, em performance

so it was really unnecessary for cbs to do rated Y edits bc they didn't say a lot of profanity...this is the #grammy performance that woke me up!

i heart kanye...shrug

i love this guy, think he's 1 of my fav artist these days: article made me smile
