This title has a number of hidden meanings.
First and foremost it refers to the fact that this post should have gone up a very long time ago. You'll see what I mean by the rainy dreary day captured in the pictures, as well as the winter caps and coats that also make appearances.
Another would be the fact that
Billy's and I (and Nicole) were supposed to meet quite a long time ago.
Almost a year to be exact.
And finally, I was accompanied on my visit by fellow blogger and all around great gal (and new MOMMY to be!) Miss Sofia Zimmerman. She chronicles her life as a savvy foody in Brooklyn,
here, on Brooklyn Baba.
Billy's is adorable with a kitchy old-school feel and atmosphere that's reminiscent of both
Magnolia and
Babycakes Bakeries. Two former Cuppie Tour stops. The taste -- we both opted for vanilla on vanilla cuppies -- very similar to Magnolia and
Buttercup Bakeshop. I believe I'd heard that Billy's is also owned by one of the founders of Magnolia (as is Buttercup). Does anyone know if that's true?
Anyway, here are a couple shots of the shop:
And one of my fellow cupcake lover:
Sofia says another good choice, although a bit on the sweeter side, is the banana cupcake. I brought home the red velvet and carrot cake to try as well and both were D-LISH!!!!!!!!!!
