Happy Valentine’s Day, Bent Readers! Here, have a cupcake: 

Probably one of the best Valentine’s presents I’ve received in a while was waking up this morning at my house on Hill Street and Delaware and realizing that I could, for the first time ever, walk across the street and buy a muffin and a cup of coffee instead of driving downtown or starving until lunch, because I’m too lazy and/or don’t have gas in my car. This is because Gotta B Gluten Free opened this morning. Happy Valentine’s Day, indeed!

Hey, it’s the little things that count.  But seriously, thank you Gotta B Gluten Free for making muffins and red velvet cupcakes that taste like regular moist, awesome baked goods instead of seeds and dry, chalky crackers. It’s a Valentine’s Day miracle. Welcome to the neighborhood.
