The Flying Cupcake! A New Friend!


Look at these pictures and you'll know why I love the Flying Cupcake.
Located at 56th and Illinois, the Flying Cupcake makes the best cupcakes I have ever tasted! Kate, the owner, is now my new best friend (after she sent me home with a box to try). You should have seen and tasted them. Coconut (my favorite), strawberry with pink icing and cake (yummy), carrot cake (rich and decadent), golden with chocolate icing (my husband's favorite), red velvet (I didn't even care for red velvet until I tried Kate's whoa!!), traditional wedding (all white and almondy), traditional birthday (white or chocolate with fun sprinkles) and bahrumba (a buttery pecan flavor and toasted pecans make this sinful). Now, about the icing....it was thick and amazing. Each cupcake had icing to coordinate with the flavor. I just don't know how Kate and Gigi do it. They truly are masters. Besides tasty treats their store is so much fun. Little ballerina cake toppers, ice cream, vintage trays and candy treats make it a special place to visit. Thanks, Kate.

Save A Life

I just read an article from Paige Harden in the Columbus Republic Newspaper. It touched my heart and I hope touches yours. The article was about Columbus resident, John Romine. John is a 21 year old who is a junior at Purdue. John has been fighting recurrent, resisting Hodgkin's lymphoma.
He has had chemotherapy, radiation, a stem-cell transplanted and most recently proton-beam radiation. While waiting for insurance to approve the proton-beam therapy, the cancer spread to John's lungs. His last option is a bone marrow transplant. None of his family members are a match, in fact only four people in the world had the potential of matching and three of them were only a 60% match. The last possible match cannot be retested until the end of September.
JOHN NEEDS HELP!!He will continue having chemo to keep the cancer at bay until a match is found.
ALL HEALTHY ADULTS BETWEEN THE AGES OF 18 AND 60 CAN SIGN UP TO BE A DONOR. Registration is FREE until September 22nd by visiting marrow.org/HELP/Events/NASCAR/index.html.
PLEASE HELP JOHN AND OTHERS. We can help him and others defeat their cancer! John recently told his mom that if he could get more people on the registry and one life is saved, he will have met his purpose in life.
When you sign up to donate, you are committing to donate your bone marrow to anyone in the world, but it also means it could be going to John. Time is of the essence!!!More than 6,000 people search for bone marrow every day. You will be blessed by being a blessing to others.

Some Great Music



I am so fortunate to work with so many wonderful vendors. Three of them have to be Cocktail Sax www.cocktailsax.com, Living Proof Band www.livingproofband@livingproofmusic.com and The Aberdeen Project Band www.aberdeenproject.4t.com. All of these musicians really make an event exceptional. The service they give my clients and myself is phenomenal. I truly appreciate them and their efforts.

Gosport Lazy Days Festival

What fun it was to help coordinate and emcee the annual Gosport Lazy Days Festival Talent Show. Ironically, I was the founder of the first talent show, also known as the Gong Show, about 20 years ago. This year we had several of the original show's acts. Talk about fun and reminiscing. I think a lot of our participants were better than the original show! Owen County and Gosport, Indiana are such quaint communities. Near McCormick's Creek State Park, they are truly part of small town Indiana! http://www.kimkingsmithevents.com/index.htm
