One Giant Step for The Head Cookee, one Even larger loss for the world of Cupcakes

The day has come, yesterday in fact, that I, a cupcake loving, bakery connoisseur, and candy extraordinaire has given up SWEETS!!!!
Please cover your children's ears, for the wales of pain can be heard throughout the land. Hershey's stock dropped 50 points on the Dow, bakeries in a 20 mile radius are now overflowing with bags of sugar-as their production has come to a halt, and candy stores from Ohio to California have already seen sales drop 36%!

I apologize to each of the "Sugar Factories" that I will now be diverting away from.

Can you think of a better day to announce a huge breakup than on Valentine's Day, the irony is almost satirical.
Dearest Sugar,
I truly love you, but I have outgrown your yo-yo ways, your sweet taste is like a romance gone bad. I love to hate you, and it is unhealthy to use you in this way any longer. We must part, I have grown older, matured in my ways. You were always there tempting, but never really giving me what I needed. I shall look at our 30 plus years relationship with fondness, and I would like to stay friends, yes I know how that sounds, but when I see you at the Mexican restaurant, or in the local cupcake store know that I will smile, take in your intoxicating scent, and walk slowly away as I look back and wonder what might have been, if only your weren't so heavy on my hips...

I'm going to need all your help if I will stay this tortuous path, please...
No more cupcake pictures online
No more talk of candy stores and sweet shops
No more Epicurus pancakes, oozing in sugared up strawberries and whipped cream
No more 7 layer cakes, with layers upon layers of ganache
No more Mexican Fried Ice Cream, smothered in sweet honey
No more warm cherry pie ala-mode
No more, marshmallow dripping, Rice Krispy Treats
No more Whirly Pop lollipops
No more Swedish Fish
(This is a joke! Please post tons of pictures online-I must survive somehow.)



Let's talk Liver and Onions instead!
