Santa Barbara is bee-yew-ti-ful in the summer!!!! I have such lovely memories. lol

That one guy with the accordian pic? (?) looked like he was trying to be Elton John. Okay, maybe I'm just old.

he sort of looks like Elton John, but the guy in the French outfit may be older. heehee

I sense a strong French presence in Santa Barbara =)

Oui, oui!

I mean, blue velvet cake totally screams France

actually i got it in L.A. and it was gross. but yeah i still had to get it.

Sprinkles would never allow such a thing. Shame on thee!

sprinkles should have a blue velvet cupcake. then i wouldn't have cheated on them and gone somewhere else.

Hussie! You know what Sprinkles needs though? They need tres leches cupcakes =) Those are wonderful

dude, i want to open my own cupcake/cafe place. probably just a dream for now, but I came up with cupcake flavors i could have that are different.

You should make a special cupcake with Valencia oranges 'cause, Allison, that is my surname ::blushing!::

I would! It would be the Andres Valencia special!! or something like that.

I think that cake should be eaten by anyone who has overdosed or has poison and needs to empty their stomach.

Blue Food yuck

Heyy, you cannot deny that blue cheese & cordon bleu & blueberries are delicious =)

in isolation but not blended

What on earth are you talking about! They are even better that way! =)

i had no idea what you guys were talked about. not sure that's cheese, it's like frosting, but yeah, it was so hot here, that it melted and maybe it went bad?? and that's why it tasted bad? Anyway I still have it to finish but I put it in the fridge so it wouldn't melt further. gross, I know.

Looks like a fun day! I was at a minor league baseball game on Bastille Day, which they celebrated by translating the program and animated billboards into French and having fireworks afterwards. Your event looks more fun though...a guillotine and everything! And I just love Francoise Hardy.

 

That blue velvet cake looks scary!

sounds like the baseball game was fun too. I don't remember anyone doing anything for Bastille Day last year, so this year was a little better.

Blue Velvet cake's slogan could be "as scary as the movie"

It should be decorated with an ear shaped piece of frosting, ha ha...

Well it doesn't have to be, because that's what it tastes like. just kidding they could do the ants frosting too. I'm sure some people would be into it - sounds like a plan!
