We went to Georgetown a couple of weekends ago, and someone had told me about this cupcake place. We went and there was a line outside, as we heard there usually was. We waited for awhile, but then they ran out. So yesterday, we got there half an hour before they opened to make sure we got some.

Georgetown, South Carolina is the 3rd oldest city in the state although some historians claim that American history began here in 1526 with the earliest settlement in North America by Europeans with African slaves. It is believed that in that year the Spanish, under Lucas Vásquez de Ayllón, founded a colony called San Miguel de Guadalupe. Fever epidemic and a revolt of the slaves put an end to that first settlement.

Home of Dr. George Starke. From my historian friend, Christine Kinlaw Best:
"Dr. Starke was the first African American physician to practice here in Sanford, coming here in 1927. He practiced in Sanford for 50 years & when he retired in 1977, the City gave him a massive retirement party in the Civic Center. Sadly, he passed away the next year in 1978. He was loved by the entire community. His home is at: 611 S. Locust Ave. It's a big two-story white house in Georgetown."

This, my friends, was the infamous game wen Billy Packer referred to Allen Iverson as a "tough monkey" on live TV. Of course, we didn't know about this until after the game - when we met up with two friends who had been watching the game in a run down bar in a run down section of Landover, MD.

I used to walk passed this little pharmacy when I lived in Georgetown. Not sure if I ever went in, but I found the old style "apothecary" look so charming.
