If you didn’t infer from my last post, or you missed the one about my sister, you don’t know I’m on vacation.
So, yeah, VACATION.
I know I feel bummed when some of my favorite bloggers disappear for too long (they probably work, or have actual, real-life stuff to do), so I figured I’d make it clear that I haven’t given up on Fatty McCupcakes! Don’t you love how I’m assuming I might be one of someone’s favorites? Oy!
I’ve been having a blast, and I’ve been experiencing all that I can. It’s all fodder for new blog posts, of course. Most importantly, though, I’ve put the iPhone and iPad somewhat away and I’ve just lived, watched, breathed, and engaged. It’s been refreshing as all hell.
I’m still vacationing, so I don’t anticipate an actual post until I get back and sleep for a whole day (jet lag is worse as you get older, I swear)!
Hopefully some vacation pictures will keep my loyal followers satiated enough until I get back. Don’t give up on me, guys! I love you all.
Goodbye land, goodbye sanity, goodbye lunch. Flying gets you to cool places, but it’s nerve-wracking as fuck.
What you do after traveling for 9 hours and you’re ravenously hungry, and you’re alone in a big city-for the first time (more on my newfound independence soon). Room service, baby!
Obviously, I tracked down a cupcakery while in Philadelphia. It’s like my fat gut has a built-in honing device for baked goods.
Some resident of the City of Brotherly Love loved their city so much, they felt the need to tag an iconic landmark. Way to go, asshat! It’s why we can’t have nice things *hangs head in disgrace*.
If I could make one suggestion/comment/bit of feedback to whoever planned the structure housing the Liberty Bell, it’s that the natural light coming from behind the bell makes it really hard to capture the famous crack. Oh, you’re just supposed to reverently view and move on? Gotcha…*slowly puts selfie stick back in bag*
Residents of the East Coast are different people entirely. I had never seen anything like this before. Apparently, I’M the weird one for not being familiar with edible curved manhood. BTW it is NOT like Bologna at all.
After a nice little jaunt through Delaware, we made it to Ocean City, MD. We promptly put our feet in the surf. Because ocean.
We drove all the way to Maryland to eat at a Jamaican-themed restaurant, complete with real palm trees and jerk chicken-everything, just so I can show people this picture and say I went somewhere exotic.
Yes, the views are priceless, but our $300 a night hotel room is…well…upon getting a towel, the towel rack promptly fell off the wall. Classy. I simply cannot wait to write my Yelp and Trip Advisor reviews.
Our piggy toes are obviously genetic. You’re welcome.

I love these shots π And there’s a food with “fatty” in front of it π
Thank you! Yup, that’s me, Fatty McCupcakes π
Love it. I’ve got a 28 hour flight next week and I have no doubt, I’ll be saving up the material for blogs!! Enjoy your holiday.
Oh, honey – ring bologna is just the beginning. You didn’t have any head cheese? Or at least chipped ham? (OK, that’s on the other side of the state….but you weren’t far from where “pot pie” doesn’t look like pie at ALL – it’s not Marie Callender’s, it’s more of a dough casserole….
Haha no head cheese! What’s that? Do I want to know?!
NO YOU ABSOLUTELY DO NOT WANT TO KNOW. Wait – yes you do. Basically, organ meat chopped/diced and set in clear jello….I KID YOU NOT. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_cheese Pennsyltuckey delicacy right there yo
Oh hell no!!!!!! Are you from PA?
Yep sure am. Not the city but I’ve been around the farms a bit π
So you’re from or that’s where you are located now? My sister lives outside of Reading, but NOT in Reading, as I learned no one wants to be from Reading…
I actually lived in Reading for three months…it was one of the first high schools with a metal detector. IF THAT TELLS YOU ANYTHING.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! So it wasn’t just my sister’s personal opinion! How can a town be so bad among so much beauty?! It’s SO green there!
PA is pretty between the cities. Reading used to have some amazing outlets back in the day, too…they just don’t have bargain hunting like THAT any more.
They have some outlets close to Reading. Are you still in PA?
Nope. I moved to the Midwest a few years ago….still root for the Eagles though!
My dad is a diehard Eagles fan!
I love Eagles fans. We’re not afraid to boo our own team when we suck! And we throw things. I like throwing things at stuff that sucks.
Hahahahahaha too funny!
