Pennsylvania primary live-blogging!!!

See? I didn't post anything on my blog for three weeks because I was training, in arduous preparation for a live blogging extravaganza of the primary elections from my home state of Pennsylvania.

That's right, here in the Cupcake Monster HQ, on location in my stepdad's home office in Coatesville, PA, I will update you on the minute-by-minute on-the-ground happenings as I see them, LIVE in the great Keystone State of Pennsylvania, home of Philadelphia, the city of brotherly crunch.


What do I have for you today? Well, for one thing, there are ads EVERYWHERE. Oh my God just flipping channels you see like 3 ads at a time. I saw three back-to-back ads, Obama, then Clinton, then Obama, during OLBERMAN. OLBERMAN already IS a freaking political ad. Also a quick unscientific poll of yard signs in this region shows Hillary at 50%, Obama at 10% and Ron Paul, sadly, at 40%.

Also today, I went shopping at the Wilbur Chocolate Company in Lititz, which you may remember as the site of a mini-scandalette involving Obama, suggestive hugs, and some old-lady chocolate makers who were most definitely blushing at the time.
For the record, I followed up with one of the old-lady chocolate makers, and when all was said and done her husband was not jealous. "Not much makes him jealous," in fact. You heard it here first folks. I'm following up on the stories the people want to hear about, and also the stories that involve buying chocolate. (In case you have no idea what I'm talking about, here's the infamous photo:)









Tomorrow I'll have exciting updates re: going to the polls to watch my mom vote (like I used to when I was 6), and watching the returns with her on the living room sofa while I sew a patch in my jeans (you can get fabric out here very cheap.)
Maybe if I have time I'll also explain why I haven't had any cupcake pictures up for almost a month. Toodles.
