After a delicious soda shoppe lunch today, I drifted down past Wright Square Cafe (go ahead and say yum!) on my way back to work to see if they had some delicious chocolate covered marshmallows (one of my fave afternoon snacks).

Well, they did have them, but they also had a display of cupcakes (also Yum!). What to do? How to proceed? Cupcakes! Marshmallows! Cupcakes! Marshmallows! I decided to go with Cupcakes, mainly because I have given plenty of business to Wright Square Cafe with my marshmallow cravings and the cupcakes had been made by Britney Banks of Southern Belle Cupcakery.

Britney came to me by karmic accident. Not only is she a sorority sister of my Savannah kindred Sandy Dostal Thornton over at From Blushing Bride to Domestic Diva(http://blushingbridetodomesticdiva.blogspot.com/) but she also works at the company that I worked for when I first moved to Savannah. We have chatted on the phone and she is such a delight! Britney was just featured in the South magazine and has started selling her cupcakes at Wright Square. She also does weddings,natch, parties, school functions, the list goes on and on. Check her out at www.southernbellecupcakery.com. And if you happen by Wright Square Cafe, the red velvet cupcake was divine!

Another friend of mine, a co-worker actually, creates the most awesome jewelry. Mikaela J jewelry is one-of-a-kind pieces in several distinct collections. I already have my favorite picked out and several runners-up! Take a look at her great pieces at www.mikaelaj.com

I just L-O-V-E when I can not only support local business but also young up-and-coming women like myself.
