On the second of every month this year, I’m going to be asking you, my loyal readers, to do something. It’s nothing that will drastically change your life in any way, or your financial situation, but it will help others. And potentially, in some cases (like this month) help to save a life.
Every month in [...]
I just wanted to make a quick post and let everyone know that 100% of the purchases made today at Yoyo’s TOPSTITCH webstore will go to the Adelphi NY Statewide Breast Cancer Hotline & Support Program in my mom’s name. As you may or may not know, my mom is an almost 4 year survivor [...]
Also, the first post from my new pink Dell laptop, which I have named June Carter. An odd name for a laptop, perhaps, but there’s a reason. When it was shipped, it shipped out of Nashville, TN and when I heard that, the first thing I thought of was Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash. [...]
Quite literally, well for today anyway. I wanted to remind everyone that coming up next month (September 12th to be exact) is the Second Annual Just For Fun Dog Show in Seaford, Long Island. This year, not only am I attending (with Jay & of course, Indy, who’s very excited to meet new friends!) but [...]
My favorite holiday (Halloween, in case you’re a dumbass who doesn’t read this blog often enough and didn’t know) is coming up rapidly, and I know this because Halloween candy is in some stores already, and I’ve seen some autumnal decorations pop up in other stores. This excites me and saddens me at the same [...]
It’s been over 6 months since I’ve done one of these, so I thought it was about time. Especially since Cupcake Rehab’s second birthday is coming up in September.
The Cupcake Rehab International posts, in case you are unfamiliar, started with my fascination involving who came to visit my site and where they’re from, not to [...]
Awhile back, in a post I mentioned the Adopt-A-Blogger program that was going on, and introduced you all to my blog-adoptee, a.k.a. my “blog daughter,” Amanda at Is This Thing On? Remember that? If not please go back and re-read it. You may be quizzed on this.
Amanda in her cap & gown! She recently graduated… [...]
April 22nd is Earth Day, as you may or may not know. If you don’t know, then let me school you, courtesy of Wikipedia:
Earth Day is one of two observances, both held annually during spring in the northern hemisphere, and autumn in the southern hemisphere. These are intended to inspire awareness of and appreciation for [...]
Lucky for me, not all dogs feel that way!
A few weeks ago I posted a recipe for pupcakes, or cupcakes for dogs. Well, our dog puppy Indy loves them, and has a very specific way of eating them. I thought I’d share with you how exactly a dog eats one of these, having no thumbs [...]

Well- Happy New Year everyone! Its officially 2009 and technically, I have had Cupcake Rehab for 2 years now (although its 2nd birthday isn’t until September). Today’s post is Cupcake Rehab International: La Parte Sette (Part 7).
For anyone who’s confused as to what that means.. here’s a brief history.
It all started back in April of [...]
Well its the new year, so happy 2009! I hope you all had a lovely holiday filled with family, friends, and even more importantly- lots of good food, cupcakes, alcohol and gifts. And of course a happy and healthy start to the new year as well.
Speaking of gifts, I myself was gifted some pretty nifty [...]
Hearing: Siouxsie & the Banshees – “Hong Kong Garden”
Its time, everyone.
Time for what, you say?
Its time for another round of …Cupcake Rehab International!
For those of you unfamiliar with that phenomenon, I’ll sum it up quickly. It all started back in April of 2008. I was so amazed at the variety of countries that were [...]
Well, Halloween is officially over. Which for me is sad. Its now November and I can’t believe how time flies.. although the weather feels more like its early September. My little cupcake alter-ego above has a new theme for the new month and for the next holiday (well here in America, anyway): Thanksgiving.
I’ll be back [...]
A frightful, delightful,
Wary and scary,
Spooky yet kooky,
Creaky but freaky,
Terrifyingly sweet and most of all…
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
My jack-o-lantern this year, featuring The Bride of Frankenstein.
…
In the spirit of carving jack-o-lanterns, I give you a recipe that uses the cut out pumpkin pieces. I’ve had this recipe since I was in kindergarten- my teacher Mrs. [...]
