Miss Commentbox's cupcakes are LEGEND.
Here are the mini cupcakes she made for the inaugural Sydney Bloggers' Event. Butter cake with white frosting and delicate, pastel-coloured sprinkles. Miss Commentbox even has a special carrying case for them, because we don't want any of the perfect frosting peaks to be ruined by any accidents on the road.
So I had to wake up very early to give Miss Commentbox a lift.
But I slept through the alarm, so I was very late and Miss C was very upset with me. I raced to the car without washing my face or brushing my hair, or my teeth. We made it just in time thanks to my superb driving skills, and then there I was, in the middle of the city, still half asleep. Had I even brought my bag with me? I couldn't remember. I checked the boot:
I had my beach bag there, left from that day a while back which held a promise of a swim. But what was that IN the beach bag? Why, it was my CITY bag, but I didn't remember bringing it along!!!
The two little birds on the bag seemed to talk to me in tiny, cheerful chirrups. They were hypnotising me. I returned to the front seat of my car and drove, following their PRECISE directions.
Here is where the bag birds told me to park. The red car is mine, I like to call it my "Noddy Car".
There was a line all the way out the door of the bakery. But at least I didn't have to feel self-conscious about my unbrushed hair.
This is what the birds made me order, and we sat together at a pavement table and slowly started to wake up properly. The coffee was very good, even though they misspelled my name.

Ooo! I can't wait!
While I commend the birdies on their bakery-hunting skills, I'm hoping the next destination will be the Sydney Airport--where they'll entice you to board a direct flight to Frankfurt.
C'mon birdies--remember our plan?!?
PS-Let me know what time I need to pick you up.
I got distracted by the Linky list which I love! How clever you are.
And now I must go back and admire the Legendary Cupcakes.
Oh my gosh! I love those birdies. And good on them to lead you to such a wonderful bakery. No shoes required!
Can't wait until tomorrow's episode of "A Bag of Tricks."
PS - LOVE the new banner!
Oh those cakes were divine.
I am enjoying this tale so much.
Can we go to that bakery next time I am in Sydney?
Brasserie Breads?
My WV is polon, which sounds a lot like colon and that just isn't right at all.
Let's do a bit of a food tour next time - lunch at Chef's, a trip to the bakery, maybe a patisserie? An artisan chocolatier?
Kim, you're singing my song!
Looks like fun Eleanor, I also order a SK L. Sometimes I even order a DC SK L just to mix it up. I like to keep my barista on her toes :-) I hope the birdies got you into the pool! xo A
I thought I recognized those birdies, they have a mittel european look to them! Once in the Frankfurt airport, please remind them that the autobahn trip to Prague is a mere 4 or so hours. Child's play for Australian globe trotters, truly.
