A few weeks ago I threw a little idea out into the world: a Joy the Baker picnic.
Well… holy heck! We’re doing it!
Joy the Baker is throwing a rooftop cupcake party smack dab in the middle of gorgeous downtown Los Angeles. Consider it a room with a view (the view pictured above silly!)… and no roof and tons of cupcakes and sweet tea.
Sunday August 23rd from 2pm until 7pm. Downtown Los Angeles.
This event is not a pot luck situation. It’s more of a eat-all-the-Joy-the-Baker-cupcakes-you-can situation.
If you’d like to attend, send an email to joythebakerpicnic (at) gmail (dot) com
I’ll email you the fancypants invitation late next week.
Now… a girl can only make so may cupcakes. In the event that I have to limit the guest list, invitations will go out on a first come, first serve basis. Get your emails in!
Not in Los Angeles? Don’t fret! I have plans for you to play along wherever you live. You might call it a virtual picnic! Stay tuned for that!
I want to see your shining faces!

I love this. I’m originally from LA, now in Atlanta and so sad I won’t be there for this undoubtedly awesome event. I’ll be sure to check in virtually but do you think you can maybe overnight some cupcakes to me ;)

Ok, it’s in my calendar: Sunday 11 pm to Monday 4 pm :-)
I guess I’ll be picknicking a little earlier than you… but it seems there’s a lot of European people here, so at least we’ll be celebrating on more or less the same time :-D

Damn. I can’t believe my little Los Angeles homebody butt won’t be here that weekend. I’ll be celebrating with you virtually in San Francisco! :)
