I have received some rave reviews from friends and family about the cupcakes at Dozen. I have now received phone calls from some of these cupcake lovers to ask if I know if Dozen is open after 6pm on Sundays because said cupcake lovers “must have a Dozen cupake.” I promise I will post some pictures of a recent visit to Dozen soon but if you are a cupcake lover or have been looking for an excuse to try Dozen I think you will be happy to see this announcement.

Scrabble Clubs
Over the holidays I started playing Scrablulous on Facebook. I love it – I play every day. I am even thinking of organizing a Scrabulous tournament.
Since the weather is just gross outside I think that Scrabble is a great inside activity and luckily there are 2 Scrabble clubs in the Pittsburgh area.
The Pittsburgh Scrabble® Club (National Scrabble® Association Club #352) meets in Squirrel hill, usually on Wednesday – you will have to check with the organizers for game locations.
The South Hills Scrabble Club, also recognized by the National Scrabble Association, meets from 1 to 3 p.m. every Saturday at the Mount Lebanon Public Library, 16 Castle Shannon Boulevard, near Washington Road.
Charity Gaming Event This Saturday
Looks like there’s lots of fun charity events this weekend. If your interests fall more towards electronic entertainment, I’d recommend dropping by Gamers Give Back. All proceeds from the tournament and sale will benefit the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh. Take a look at the prizes and items for sale if you’re planning on coming, there’s lots of good deals on holiday presents there. And if you can’t make it, consider donating directly to the hospital by buying something from their wish list.
When: Saturday, December 1st, 2007 from 5-8 pm
Where: CyberConxion @ 1710 Murray Ave in Squirrel Hill
