Weekend Wind-Down #77 - Blythecon Edition

BLYTHE 7035

In the middle of BLYTHECON, Missy and I took a break from the convention and headed a couple of doors down from the YOUNG BLOOD GALLERY to our favorite place to snack, THE ATLANTA CUPCAKE FACTORY. They had a bunch of Halloween-themed cupcakes on display, so we could not resist. The spicy Mexican chocolate cupcakes helped warm us up a bit in the chilly autumn air...

We also took time to delve into the basement of the antique store next door, hoping to find a deal on some long forgotten treasure...
