The joy of barking
We used to have a dog. A beautiful, liver and white English Springer Spaniel named Charlie Brown. A.k.a the Chuckinator
For two years we shared our lives with this lovable bundle of energy, watching him grow from a 4-week-old ball of fur to a fifty-pound young dog. And while it wasn't always easy — does anyone really like picking up your pet's daily presents? — it was a joyful time. From the first, uneventful (he slept the whole way) car trip home and all the subsequent car trips to the store/vet/groomer to the final car trip to his excited, new owners. That's what we remember most when we think of our Charlie. The joys.
We recall the simple things he enjoyed. A good ice cube to chew on. A game of tug of war with a dirty rope toy. A yummy peanut-butter-cheese-beef-"really-I'm-not-picky-so-whatever-you've-got-there-works" treat. A loooooong, slobbery drink of water. A brisk walk at 6am or 3pm or 11pm. A spontaneous run through a sprinkler.
We laugh at the witching hour. You dog lovers know what we're talking about don't you? That strange time of day when your puppy suddenly seems to go nuts and runs around wildly just, we're certain, for the pure fun of running.
We reminisce about when he first learned to bark. How that deep, booming bark suddenly emerged sometime near the end of his first year and how scared and surprised he seemed at the noise he'd just made. Then once he had it down pat, how he would bark simply because he could. For the sheer joy of barking.
We think that's what the holidays are all about. Not spending oodles of money on the best and biggest gifts, or outdoing the neighbors. But the simple joys. The joy of being with family and friends. The joy of just being.
Don't know what that looks like? Take a look at a dog.
Or take a look at ours. Below: 1. You want me to do what? 2. Snowflakes keep falling on my head. 3. Doesn't everybody love eating ice cubes? 4. Being nosy 5. The big tease 6. Got it!
For Chuck.

We think that's what the holidays are all about. Not spending oodles of money on the best and biggest gifts, or outdoing the neighbors. But the simple joys. The joy of being with family and friends. The joy of just being.
Don't know what that looks like? Take a look at a dog.
Or take a look at ours. Below: 1. You want me to do what? 2. Snowflakes keep falling on my head. 3. Doesn't everybody love eating ice cubes? 4. Being nosy 5. The big tease 6. Got it!
For Chuck.

No parking Sat. Rain/snow coming (!)
We have to cancel our stop at IKEA today due to wacky weather being forecasted. (Anyone remember hearing about snow today two or three days ago? We don't but ya gotta love that weatherperson).
Anyway, we're hoping to reschedule our visit to next weekend but we'll keep you posted. Have a great day Cupcake Truckers.

No parking today. Private event only.
It's that time of year when we have lots of holiday festivities to bake for. Like the Life Haven annual Holiday Celebration today which we will be donating cupcakes to again this year. And a big fundraiser at Hamden Hall tomorrow benefiting the Coordinating Council for Children in Crisis. So your Cupcake Truck will be quite busy and won't be parking today or tomorrow.
We hope to see you Downtown New Haven on Friday evening and on Saturday at IKEA. Our exact parking locations and times will be posted in a day or so.
Oh, don't forget to check out all the holiday window displays from various local merchants around town. Ours is on Chapel Street (in the old Villarina's storefront) and we do hope you like it.
