Our friend Matt points us to the extremely tasty hex conduction hour blog, where a friend of his is working through the recipes in Isa Chandra Moscowitz’s “Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World.”
We’re up for any blog that offers post-punk puns alongside pics of “golden vanilla cupcakes with vegan fluffy buttercream frosting and chocolate buttercream frosting.”
I’ve been trying to post this for some time now, but I keep drooling on my keyboard.
A lot has happened on the ol’ internets while you were busy looking at pics of that High School Musical girl.

With summer drawing to a hot, completely un-autumny conclusion, I’d like to share with you things you should have taken with you to the places you should have gone. Bye, bye, ‘cation!

Editors Note: h diddy is world renown for finding the most effed-up shit on the internet, so after what seemed like an endless recruitment battle, we bring her expertise to ES. Oh, and she’s El’s roommate. Welcome to h diddy world.
Hi All- after being kidnapped this weekend and tortured (by eating delicious pancakes, steak, pasta salad and hamburgers, washed down with copious amounts of beer) until I agreed to FINALLY do a blog post, I gave in and here it is. Just remember my name is h diddy, I play bocce and can freestyle like it’s a job that I’m not very good at.
One of my co-workers has a bag of these hanging in her cube: I guess you know you’ve really made it in the hip hop world when you finally get your own line of chips.

Straight out of the British tabloids, it’s reported that Martha “hideous old crone, former jailbird” Stewart is trying to steal Nigella “sexy and interesting” Lawson’s husband, a rich, art collector.
It is also noted that Nigella carries mustard around with her where ever she goes.
ES will surely keep you up to date on this development.
