How hard is it to get cake!

Yesterday was my husbands birthday.

He was 33.

And once again he was in the states for his birthday.

This is fine, he was home for mine this year! But I digress. I decided that I wanted to send him cake for his birthday. This would be nice and simple you would think. Last year it was nice and simple. One phone call and it was done! Two dozen cupcakes delivered to the tour bus door, that was in California and the only issue was that the gift card was with love Tom, C, S, D, T and N. we don't have a Tom in our house! Lost is communication, clearly my Brit accent is not understandable!

So on to this year and NYC!

And what on the west coast was simple, the east coast complicated! It took the initial email to management, then they emailed the TM, emails to a bunch of bakery's - most of who wouldnt deliver to the venue, then one who did but needed all sorts of info. Finally a girl from the venue was in the loop too! Too complicated!

The bakery was http://www.buttercupbakeshop.com/ and they were initially not super helpful on the phone, however the girl on email was super helpful. Mr G got his cake. Apparently it is on the tour bus which is parked miles away from the venue
