Make friends with that person, because, really, they should share. Worst case, many markets will carry them. Meyer lemons, for the uninitiated, are quite frankly the gem of the citrus world. A cross between a lemon and a tangerine, these gorgeous specimens are sweetly tangy with a floral fragrance and a delicate flavor. I am a very big fan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can make these cupcakes plain without the curd—they are quite yummy on their own—but I don’t recommend it. Take them to the next level of yumminess with silky, fragrant Meyer lemon curd. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you can’t find Meyer lemons, don’t despair, just use Eureka lemons instead.

I'd been vegetarian previously because I didn't want to eat animals. Why should I hug my dog and eat a pig? A pig is smarter than my dog! But my reasoning didn't go much beyond that. Reading \u003cem>Diet for a New America\u003c/em> really drove home all that's wrong with the way we raise and slaughter \"food animals.\" I mean, it's beyond screwed-up from any perspective. I figured the best way to fight back was with my wallet since all animal-product-producing companies care about is money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Karin:\u003c/strong> I’ve always loved animals, and even as a young kid I couldn’t bear the thought of eating them. My folks were very supportive of my vegetarianism, and my mom used to make her own tofu burgers (which was pretty unheard of in the 80s). Once I began to learn more about factory farming and the abuses that occur not only in the meat industry but also in the egg and dairy industries, I went vegan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What do you feel is the biggest misconception about a vegan lifestyle?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Laura:\u003c/strong> That we don't eat and enjoy delicious food. The opposite is true; the people I know who love food the most are vegans. Honestly, Karin and I are two of the most food-motivated people you will ever meet. Over the holiday break, we both went on eating tours of other cities. Karin even had all of her meals planned out on an Excel spreadsheet! \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Karin:\u003c/strong> It’s true—I did plan an epic eating tour in Excel. I have to second what Laura said—vegans do eat amazing flavorful food, and yes, we do get enough protein.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>If a friend were visiting the Bay Area for just one day, where would you take him/her out to eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Laura:\u003c/strong> Breakfast: brunch at \u003ca href=\"http://souleyvegan.com/\">Souley Vegan\u003c/a> in Oakland (biscuits and gravy!).

I'd been vegetarian previously because I didn't want to eat animals. Why should I hug my dog and eat a pig? A pig is smarter than my dog! But my reasoning didn't go much beyond that. Reading \u003cem>Diet for a New America\u003c/em> really drove home all that's wrong with the way we raise and slaughter \"food animals.\" I mean, it's beyond screwed-up from any perspective.

My folks were very supportive of my vegetarianism, and my mom used to make her own tofu burgers (which was pretty unheard of in the 80s). Once I began to learn more about factory farming and the abuses that occur not only in the meat industry but also in the egg and dairy industries, I went vegan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What do you feel is the biggest misconception about a vegan lifestyle?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Laura:\u003c/strong> That we don't eat and enjoy delicious food. The opposite is true; the people I know who love food the most are vegans. Honestly, Karin and I are two of the most food-motivated people you will ever meet.

Karin even had all of her meals planned out on an Excel spreadsheet! \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Karin:\u003c/strong> It’s true—I did plan an epic eating tour in Excel.

I'd heard about their \"frosting-filled cupcakes\" and I thought it was a genius idea for all of us who use the cupcake as a socially acceptable excuse to eat frosting. And lots of it. What I didn't expect to find was the huge celebration of Valentine's Day in full effect--from sweet little cookies to festive whoopie pies.

Now I'm not sure how they do it. There's literally a dip or a groove in the top of the cupcake where a nice little shot of extra frosting lays. It's pure magic. I love their almost haphazard way of frosting each cupcake as well. It's not perfectly even and looks rather homemade, but in a generous, abundant sort-of way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/02/Frostingfilledcupcakes.jpg\" alt=\"Frosting filled cupcakes\" title=\"Frosting filled cupcakes\" width=\"500\" height=\"296\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10378\">\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>The genius that is \u003cstrong>SusieCakes\u003c/strong>' signature frosting-filled cupcakes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I tried the Peanut Butter, Chocolate, Red Velvet and the Sugar and Spice (February Special) cupcakes. You'll notice there aren't any photos of the Peanut Butter. That's because, like an eager and grubby-handed child, I ate it in the car. I just couldn't wait. Each flavor I tried was unbelievably soft and moist although I must say that I’m a bit of a Red Velvet snob, and I couldn't taste the cocoa in theirs. But the chocolate was rich in cocoa, and the Sugar & Spice cupcake had a lovely, light vanilla-sugar flavor. I made a big batch of \u003ca href=\"http://asweetspoonful.com/2010/02/cinnamon-cardamom-snickerdoodles.html\">snickerdoodles\u003c/a> recently and the Sugar and Space tastes a lot like the classic cookie. You just look at these cupcakes and want to bring them to someone you love, or like, or appreciate, or want to make smile. They're happiness in a box, really.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I didn't try some of the other treats, although I'll be back in town this week and plan on swinging by for a whoopie pie (or a \"Makin' Whoopie Pie,\" their current take on the old-school dessert). And while there's certainly a glut of cupcake spots in the Bay Area and while some people I know are excusing cupcakes altogether as a retired trend, there’s something special about \u003cem>SusieCakes\u003c/em>. It's evident in the regulars who were strolling in before 11 a.m. on a weekday to pick up a few treats. And it's evident in their attention to homemade, old-fashioned desserts (think along the lines of \u003ca href=\"http://www.magnoliabakery.com/\">Magnolia Bakery\u003c/a> in New York but before the Sex in the City madness) with banana and butterscotch puddings, classic pies and stacked cakes.

We've all heard it before. Perhaps some of you are guilty of shouting it out on a yearly basis: \"Urgh, I can't wait for the day to be over--it's not like I have anyone to spend it with.\" That sort of thing. But what could be better than a day during the dead of winter where pinks and reds abound in all the shops and where chocolate is pushed, pedaled, and procured? I mean, c'mon.

Now I'm not sure how they do it. There's literally a dip or a groove in the top of the cupcake where a nice little shot of extra frosting lays. It's pure magic. I love their almost haphazard way of frosting each cupcake as well. It's not perfectly even and looks rather homemade, but in a generous, abundant sort-of way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/02/Frostingfilledcupcakes.jpg\" alt=\"Frosting filled cupcakes\" title=\"Frosting filled cupcakes\" width=\"500\" height=\"296\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10378\">\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>The genius that is \u003cstrong>SusieCakes\u003c/strong>' signature frosting-filled cupcakes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I tried the Peanut Butter, Chocolate, Red Velvet and the Sugar and Spice (February Special) cupcakes. You'll notice there aren't any photos of the Peanut Butter. That's because, like an eager and grubby-handed child, I ate it in the car. I just couldn't wait. Each flavor I tried was unbelievably soft and moist although I must say that I’m a bit of a Red Velvet snob, and I couldn't taste the cocoa in theirs. But the chocolate was rich in cocoa, and the Sugar & Spice cupcake had a lovely, light vanilla-sugar flavor. I made a big batch of \u003ca href=\"http://asweetspoonful.com/2010/02/cinnamon-cardamom-snickerdoodles.html\">snickerdoodles\u003c/a> recently and the Sugar and Space tastes a lot like the classic cookie. You just look at these cupcakes and want to bring them to someone you love, or like, or appreciate, or want to make smile. They're happiness in a box, really.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I didn't try some of the other treats, although I'll be back in town this week and plan on swinging by for a whoopie pie (or a \"Makin' Whoopie Pie,\" their current take on the old-school dessert). And while there's certainly a glut of cupcake spots in the Bay Area and while some people I know are excusing cupcakes altogether as a retired trend, there’s something special about \u003cem>SusieCakes\u003c/em>. It's evident in the regulars who were strolling in before 11 a.m. on a weekday to pick up a few treats. And it's evident in their attention to homemade, old-fashioned desserts (think along the lines of \u003ca href=\"http://www.magnoliabakery.com/\">Magnolia Bakery\u003c/a> in New York but before the Sex in the City madness) with banana and butterscotch puddings, classic pies and stacked cakes. They're not trying to be anything they’re not with wacky and original flavors, but they're doing the classics incredibly well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/02/eatcake.jpg\" alt=\"eat cake\" title=\"eat cake\" width=\"500\" height=\"251\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10376\">\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>A good motto to live by, and a great daily selection of cupcakes\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So for a little shop with a big sign deeming \"Eat Cake,\" I don't think it much matters if you have a sweetheart or not this year.
