Yay! Java Cupcake reads my posts! LOL.
She just bought a pair of Cupcake Converse at Journeys in her local Washington state shopping mall after learning about them from one of my blog posts. What better example of positive social networking, community and the influence of social media in our daily lives. It never ceases to amaze me how information can travel at the push of a button and take on a life of its own.

The popularity of cupcakes seems to be growing even in the face of the current economic recession.

Therefore, lipstick sales tend to increase during times of economic uncertainty or a recession."Everyone or so it seems loves cupcakes. Cupcakes are a throwback to the innocence of childhood, an individual treat you can eat without sharing and an affordable $3 "luxury." Cupcakes are here to stay!
