a bite out of the apple is nice!

so the wife and I are in NYC visiting family... having a great time... catching up with some friends... doing some shopping... and seeing places...

my wife found this place right when i was diagnosed.. it's called 'Baby cakes'... it's a bakery that makes desert items like brownies, cupcakes, ice-cream etc... and they use coconut oil instead of butter... agave and unrefined sugar as a sweetener.. and spelt and gluten-free ingredients.. and finally after 3 years of knowing and reading about the place we tried it... and the cupcakes were just as good and delicious as a 'normal' cupcake. We wanted to try their stuff before we bought their recipe book to see if it was worth it... and the answer is yes it was!... so check it out if you want to be healthier with your sweets...


it's late, so i should go to bed

  3. I love BabyCakes. I'm a vegan so it's right up my alley. You should try Peace Food Cafe in the upper west side if you're still in NYC.

    And I sooooo should have emailed you - Joubin and I were in NYC yesterday for a day on our way back from Malawi and had no idea where to go or what to do!

  6. I knooooooooow, I still get upset when I think that I could have seen you but didn't! I didn't even cross my mind that you might be there... I'm so annoyed now :(

    It was kind of last minute though... we had to change travel plans cause of Iceland's volcano so didn't even know we'd go through new york until less than a week before.
