Eating a chocolate Hostess cupcake with white filling in the middle and the little white squiggle on top takes me back to being 10 years old. Those two packaged cupcakes have soothed my ravaged soul on many a day...<br /><br />When I used to work at the Federal Courts, when I had a bad day, I had a best friend who would stop by my desk, put them before me and give me a smile...it always made me feel better.<br />I will NOT accept any substitutes...I ONLY want HOSTESS. I am with you! I will be going out and stocking up! Freezing them!!! Let's save Hostess!Donna B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07015770616281528620noreply@blogger.com
