Zzzzipadeedoodah


Ahh, the magic of zipcar. For those of us non-car-owners, zipcar provides a way to get around to run errands or take fun little day trips. Today, Mike and I zipped over to Needham to visit Treat cupcake bar. This seemingly quick one-stop trip somehow turned into a full-fledged eating bonanza.

It all started when we "accidentally" ordered WAY too much food at Friendly's Express.

Yum?

Then we ventured out to find our cute little zipcar!
  

I loved the "power" button. No key needed!
Zzzzoooom! We're off!

We made a quick stop in the park to play ring around the rosie. Mike is seriously messing with the rosie flow here.

Luckily, as a preschool teacher, running around in circles is my job. So I showed him how it's done.

Phew! Back to cupcakes and the eating bonanza. Enter, Treat.

Here's the deal: 
1. Pick a cupcake (I went with "gold" - aka vanilla?)
2. Pick a frosting base (Buttercream pour moi!)
3. Pick up to three toppings (oreo, Butterfinger, rainbow sprinkles)
4. The cupcake bartender mixes up your frosting a la Coldstone Creamery and hands it to you in the adorable box:


*Coke can used to show size. So.much.frosting.

Mike went with rainbow sprinkles and nerds. Weird combo but I have to hand it to him, it was actually really good!

Sugar overload. But soo worth the trip.
