Casey’s Cupcakes

Casey’s Cupcakes was the winner of the wildly popular and highly competitive “Cupcake Wars” on the Food Network channel.  The prize was $10,000 and the opportunity to showcase Casey’s Cupcakes at a special event – which was the 50th anniversary of the Hollywood Walk of Fame. I really loved how she was cute and creative on the show and she really owned this prize, yet I couldn’t believe when my friend told me that her shop in Mission Inn at Riverside.

Hence, this weekend, I went there, when I first walked I noticed the pink balloons that were placed outside on the patio and the big flag that was written the “Cupcake Wars Winner”.  As I walked in, the store was small, but they had many things to offer such as coffee mugs, T-shirts, accessories, and aprons etc. The first thing I saw is the huge variety of specialty cupcakes; each one looked delicious, that I cannot wait to eat them. The store was pink, very pink, which I cannot stop looking over the place. I stood in the queue to order, so I ordered one of each flavor they have.  The flavors were the popular Rockin’ Red Velvet, Sassy Strawberry, Decadent Dark Chocolate, Luscious Lemon, Lavender, and Razzmatazz Raspberry. When I choose a cupcake, they’ll pack up the cupcake in a small black and pink box. Also,the cupcakes prices were at $3.50 a piece. In addition, they offer drinks to order if you want to have a drink and cupcake in the shop.

When I came home I started to eat the cupcakes, but the minute I bit one, I couldn’t stop. The cupcake actually had something I had never eaten before, it was delicious. Also, the icing was tasty as well. In short, I tried a lot of cupcakes in USA and other countries, but like Casey’s Cupcakes I did not try.

I definitely recommend visiting this place if you get the chance, and I will absolutely go back to buy more cupcakes =)  

Tradition and Culture with globalization

  Hi everyone =)

Today  I do not know what to writ about.......,but I think a lot and deiced to writ about the foundation of human life which is Tradition  and Culture with  globalization.

   Traditions and cultures are foundation of human knowledge, behaviors, believes that rely upon the abilirty for symbolic thought such as words,gestures, and numbers. In fact, it's shared attitudes, values and practices that represent a group of people. For many year, people were bound to their ethics. However, after globalization, some people began to change their thoughts and beliefs. Moreover, moving from one culture to another may affect the individual. sometimes they drift into the new culture and society; therefore, they act and dress like the culture that they moved into. On the other hand, others stay the same as they were in their countries. in my point of view, staying between these two views is the best way to adapt.

     Being between two cultures can be difficult for some people and easy for other. The traditions and believes will not be absent from any person in his or her life. Many Arabic people travel to other countries in order to study or work or live. some of them embrace the new culture, but others don"t and the majority of them are in between. For example, Men and women from Saudi Arabia usually wear traditional clothes which is thoub for men and abyah for women. to adapt into new culture they wearing international styles. furthermore, people from Asia generally have names that are hard to remember or hard to pronounce, so when they move to another country they change their names to an easy on or to shorten it. Moreover, person's believes are person's status and identity. sometimes when a person is in a certain situation, his or her core beliefs appears suddenly and control the situation. losing the core beliefs it's not a good idea because it will make the person like a stranger to his own culture.

   In short, the best way to a adapt in a new community is staying between two views. There are many ways to adapt without changing anything from person beliefs.
