I packed up my boyfriend yesterday for some manly bonding and camping with our dear friends Dean and Christian, with their promise that they would have him back to me this early morning for an extra girly day of cupcakes. They delivered and we were off to Riverside Park for the National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA) 1st Annual Walk! We met Emme Jacob, fabulous plus-size model, although she’s not really plus at all, and sold many cholesterol and cruelty free cupcakes. 1/3 of our sales went to support NEDA!
We met many lovely people and had a wonderful morning, but had some cupcakes left over. We decided to head down to Tompkins Square Park for NYC’s VegFest to meet our Farm Sanctuary friends! We sold another four dozen cupcakes to support Farm Sanctuary, who works to end cruelty to farm animals and promotes compassionate living through rescue, education and advocacy!!
Next we headed to Stogo for some amazing organic dairy-free ice cream! The manager tasted our cupcakes and LOVED them! You may see Sweet Cheeks Vegan Cupcakes at Stogo on 2nd Ave and 10th Street soon. So keep your eyes peeled!
On the way home we passed a sweet homeless lady. I ran after her and gave her a dozen cupcakes. Her reaction made my day. Utter astonishment, “Oh my goodness, thank you so much.” We gave out another dozen to homeless people on the way home, and it was the best part of our day.
An excellent day for cupcakes, from the Upper West to the Lower East, from NEDA to VegFest, and Farm Sanctuary to Stogo, and that sweet lady’s shock – a Perfect Day.
A perfect day for Sweet Cheeks Vegan Cupcakes!
