Cupcakes & Dogs ... simple comforts!

Clearly I am partially to blame for the cupcake craze that has taken our nation by storm. I love this ultimate comfort food and have overly supported these desserts at many well known cupcake establishments across the country like Magnolia Bakery in NYC & Sprinkles in Los Angeles, CA. My favorite cupcakes, though, come from The Atlanta Cupcake Factory on North Highland right here in our "sweet" city. Go there immediately after reading this and get the "sugar cookie cupcake with salted carmel frosting" or the "rosemary with pine nut cupcake". The customer service here is amazing as well. The girl behind the counter explained to me that she loves her job because every customer that comes into the store is happy ... they are here to indulge in a simple little treat for themselves. I am sure my face lit up as I told her that I essentially pet dogs for a living and have the same sort of customer interaction. I have never met a dog owner I didn't like. And by definition dog lovers are simply good natured people. I have shared this story of great customer service and attitude with my Management Team ... and they love it. It inspires us to exceed expectations and it reminds us what a pleasure it is to have a meaningful job with "sweet" dogs and cool humans. Cupcakes, the ultimate comfort food. WAG-A-LOT, the ultimate comfort service. Find comfort during these "ruff" times and check out: http://www.theatlantacupcakefactory.com/ .
