Cupcakes

July 9, 2009

The other day I visited this delightful little store at the corner of Cedar and Herndon.  I had gotten a coupon from them at the Pride festival for one free cupcake and I thought any business willing to support the festival was worth checking out.  Entering the store the display cases were filled with every different kind of cupcake imaginable.  I chatted with the owner a minute, then selected a cupcake to sample; my favorite of course, chocolate with chocolate icing.  Taking a bite, it was heavenly!  One of the best cupcakes I’d had in quite a while.  I complemented the owner on the high quality of his product and told him I’d be sure to tell others about it.  So here it is:  CupCakes Bakery  NE corner of Cedar and Herndon  (559) 325-0935.  I most definitely recommend it.

Fire Burnin’ On The Dance Floor

July 9, 2009

It was HOT last night at Integration, both figuratively and literally. 200+ people packed Starline taking advantage of the full dance floor and the cheap drinks. If you were there you may have noticed that the temperature was a little higher than usual. While there is a certain appeal in a mass of of hot, glistening bodies, it was just a little less comfortable than we were all used to. The good news is that it seems to be an isolated situation. The great people at Starline were simply having a problem with their A/C system which only barely made itself known just as we were opening the doors. Next week, the dance floor will still be burnin’ but not for the same reason.

Despite the heat, it was an awesome night and all of us want to thank you all who came out and stuck it out the entire night. We’ll see you all back next Wednesday!

MY MICHAEL JACKSON MOMENT

July 3, 2009

Michael Jackson @ Universal StudiosOkay so back on July 15, 2003 I was at Universal Studios Hollywood on a family vacation. I was with my husband Miguel & his family: mom, 3 sisters & his godson (His older brother who was a huge MJ fan & his 4 kids opted to stay home, but heard all about it by cell phone). I had seen Michael Jackson once before back when he was at the peak of his glory. The video for Thriller was filmed in East LA and me and some of my friends went out there to watch. We only caught a glimpse of him up close twice but it was cool to stay out there and watch, especially since it was my first time seeing a video being made. It was a good memory for a kid.

So anyway, we did the tour on the famous tram, walked around and had lunch. The girls wanted to purchase some souvenirs and Miguel & I went on the “Back to the Future” ride. We were going to meet in a area near the front of the ride, sort of a cross roads into different sections of the park.  Upon exiting we came out on the side of the building and had to come down a long flight of stairs. At the top as we came out we could see into the back patio of one of the food stands. There were many large patio umbrellas moved together to create a make-shift wall. Having been there many times (I grew up in Los Angeles) I knew there were occasionally celebrities and one was probably trying to enjoy the day with family.  I did not waste too much time trying to figure out who it could be. We started to make our way down with the large group when someone yelled out “It’s Michael Jackson” and as we came down and had a better view it was obvious it was indeed Michael Jackson. From our vantage point we could see hundreds of people being kept away by an army of staff and security. I could also see the girls way past the front of the building. They were easy to spot because one of Miguel’s sisters is in a wheelchair. Read the rest of this entry »
