The 155 Cupcake-O-Gram: A sugar-coated message to Olympia

Well, you catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar, so those brainy ladies over at MomsRising figured they'd catch more support from their legislators with cupcakes...155 of them. And we know the way to really get your message out there is to make sure those cupcakes are Royale, so we hooked 'em up.


See? Early learning is fun! Don't kill our funding.

This morning at our Capitol Hill café, we hosted a horde of tots and their handlers at our Sprinkle Bar. The agenda of this meeting of the Moms: get the message out to our legislators that early learning must be a priority for Washington state, and that we can't balance the budget at the expense of our own children. The vehicle: CUPCAKES!


There's genius in them there cakes! Let us nurture it.

It takes a brilliant communications mind with a true insider's perspective of the Evergreen State's political underbelly to finesse a message this sweetly.

Turns out, there was a huge turn out, and the 155 Cupcake-O-Gram surpassed its mark. 181 cupcakes are on their way to Olympia tomorrow! The wee ones may not be able to vote, but it looks like these kiddos already have the political game down pat. Well played, kiddos. Well played indeed.

Oh yeah - this isn't the first time we've teamed up with Moms (aka Hot Mamas). Remember that massive march for health care last May? Yup, mothers were leading the way on that one, too. Moms rule.

Onward MARCH!

Now is the time, people, to have our voices heard! Join us this Saturday as we march in the name of Health Care for all in 2009 with Mothers Leading the Way. It just so happens that Jody Hall, Glorious Leader of this here cupcake establishment, is a new mother (hot mama) AND a health care reform activist. Double Whammy!



We'll be marching along with all KINDS of superfriend do-gooders from Pratt Park to Westlake Center. Washington CAN, Washington Bus, Equal Rights Washington, and countless others will be there...some don't even have the word Washington in their names! The whole shebang kicks off at 12:30 and ends with a rally at Westlake...where Jody and her baby boy Truman will take the stage with Patty Murray. Yup. Because even babies know we need public health care. That's how basic this is!

We are closer than ever to a public health care option in these United States. Let our lawmakers know we want, nay NEED it, by getting on out marching in the sun (no promises) with us this Saturday!

WHAT: March for Health Care for all in 2009
WHEN: Saturday May 30 @ 12:30
WHERE: Starting at Pratt Park and ending with a rally at Westlake Center
