Carpe Cupcakes!: Kentucky Derby (April 30-May 1, 2010)

Kentucky Derby...Southern tradition...mint juleps...hats...horses...Run for the Roses.

An excerpt from one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
Run for the Roses by Dan Fogelberg (1951-2007)

From sire to sire, it's born in the blood. The
Fire of a mare and the strength of a stud. It's
Breeding and it's training and it's something un-
Known that drives you and carries you home.

And it's run for the roses as fast as you can.
Your fate is delivered. Your moment's at hand.
It's the chance of a lifetime in a lifetime of
Chance. And it's high time you joined in the dance.
It's high time you joined in the dance.
