Egg Bowl Cupcakes: Ole Miss vs. MS State

Ole Miss (the University of Mississippi) and Mississippi State University are playing in the Egg Bowl today.  It is a state rivalry that is always emotional and no matter how the teams have played during a season, there is no way to predict what will happen in this game.  I was a freshman at Ole Miss in 1976, and still get goosebumps when I hear Dixie and the players enter the stadium!  However, the recent mascot selection has my feathers ruffled so I cannot and will not call them the Rebel Black Bears.  But I digress...

Wishing both teams good luck & cupcakes!

Go red & blue!

The Wandering Cupcake has returned to Lake Tahoe! 

After a whirlwind weekend trip to the University of Mississippi (Ole Miss), I have returned.  I was a freshman at Ole Miss in 1976 and have not been back to visit the campus in almost 25 years.  A lot has changed!  I enjoyed the game against Arkansas from one of the suites thanks to the hospitality of friends Julie & Gerard...a most excellent experience, especially with a Rebel victory.  There were lots of tailgating tents in the Grove and my nieces who pledged Delta Gamma a few weeks ago invited us to the sorority house for a tour. Thanks Maidee & Emily.  I stopped by to see my old dorms and not much had changed there.  Hopefully it won't be another 25 years before I go again. 

For those attending Ole Miss games regularly, the Honey Bee Bakery is located at 2305 Jackson St. and I highly recommend trying the chocolate marshmallow and chocolate raspberry cupcakes.  They make everything from scratch!
