So I was reading this article about all the new cupcake shops suddenly springing up all over. Even Baton Rouge has a couple of these cupcake places. The reporter explained this phenomenon by arguing that in economic hard times, a cupcake seems a small and therefore acceptable splurge. Nonsense.
Why all the cupcakes? It's obvious. Like almost everything else, it's all down to the baby boom. Well, half of the baby boom. Half of the baby boom is entering or deep within menopause.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that any middle-aged woman in possession of raging hormones must be in want of a cupcake.
