Georgetown Cupcake.

A welcome sight after blocks of frigidness. Why must you people live in this misery?

Clearly, Megan and I have been jetting over to the train and 9 miles into D.C. whenever we get the chance. Coupla hours break? Great. To do reports or celebrate life? CELEBRATE LIFE!

Yesterday's mission:

Georgetown. And our sweet sisters at Alpha Pi chapter.

And the famed Georgetown Cupcake.

Good thing I don't have a macnificently abnormally large sweet tooth or anything... This was better than my usual Sour Patch Kids.

Heard of it? Yeah. We had too. And overrated/hyped/touristy/long line or not, if a shop has it's own show on TLC, you go and you enjoy every minute of that gorgeous, surprisingly-well-priced-at-$2.45-a-cupcake cupcake.

Today, Megan learned that all good things must come to an end.

Now, they've given out their Chocolate Ganache Cupcake recipe, but I'm a red velvet girl. A red velvet girl who's pouting because they won't reveal their red velvet recipe. But I did find the icing recipe they top those puppies with (Puppies/icing? Is that a gross euphamism? Whatever.), and it's going live here:

Georgetown Cupcake Red Velvet Cupcake Icing
(because here's a good recipe for the cupcakes to top with icing.)


+ 4 tbs. unsalted butter, room temperature
+ 4 c. confectioners' sugar, sifted
+ 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
+ 6 oz. cream cheese, room temperature


Mix all ingredients in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; beat until well combined.


Aight. Somebody get this LC near a kitchen!


p.s. Thank you, Alpha Pi girls, for letting us snoop around your beautiful townhouse! Y'all are just too cute and we loved our campus tour. See ya at District Leadership Conference!
