My friend picked me up at my place and she drove us to Georgetown for a cupcake shopping and play date at a cute little park in Georgetown. I wrote a post about Georgetown before and posted some pictures of Georgetown Cupcake I took from outside on there. There was a long line going around the store. Yes, Georgetown Cupcake is a very popular and only cupcakery in town. I’ve been meaning to go check it out for a long time, but I have never had a chance till now. Georgetown is not so easy to access as there is no train that goes there and parking is expensive. I’m glad we finally did! Thanks, Maca!
You can see why this place is popular. I love their interior decoration, the packaging and the designs of the cupcakes. The taste of the cupcakes? Delightful! Their wide selection of frosting makes it hard to decide what to get and I think that’s the reason why a line to get into the store can get long on weekends.
It was one of the hottest days this year. The summer has arrived. Can you tell it was hot by how the frosting melted and got a bit slouchy? It was still good of course! My daughter savored every bit of the chocolate frosting.
The park was so cute. We have many cute parks in Arlington, but parks in the city have different feels to them. For a moment I daydreamed about living in D.C.
My friend and I were saying that this was going to be the last time we would visit D.C. before our moves. Yes, my good friend and her family are moving, too and they are packing out in less than a week. I’m in denial. Unfortunately, this is the reality of life in the DC metro area.

I almost called you just now!! because… I WAS THERE THIS MORNING TOO!!!!!
I had a date lunch (+ the twins, who don’t really count) with my hubby and stopped by at the store.
I had the banana chocolate chip too!! It was really good, but I thought it was a bit too sweet to my taste. But I just wanted to try for the sake of it 🙂 Now I can tell people I’ve been there!

How funny!! I was there this past Tuesday. It was very sweet. My girl couldn’t eat the whole thing, so I ended up finishing it! 😛 I’m glad you and your hubby had a date lunch!! Exactly, I can say that I have been there.

おいしそう!そしてとっても美しいわ。日本ってどうしてこういうカップケーキあまり普及しないんだろう。そうそう大阪では今、Krispy Kreme Doughnuts が大人気。この前できたばかりのお店は連日2時間待ちらしいよ。アメリカではそんな大人気店って感じでもなかったような。

そうだね〜。子供のパーティーにとても可愛いんだけどね。でもこっちの甘さは、甘党の人でも駄目だったりするからかな〜?クリスピークリームね!アメリカでは他にもドーナツ屋さんあるしね〜。テキサスのオースティンでは、私たちが住んでいた時代(もう10年前になる!)にクリスピークリームのお店がやっと参上したんだけど、できたばかりの時は話題になっていたかな。でもそこまで混雑していなかった。日本にない味だからかな〜?アメリカ人に言わせると、ミスドは甘く無いって言うから。それでも私は断然ミスド派だけど!
