Record Store Day Tomorrow!

04.15.11

Tomorrow, April 16, is Record Store Day. This is a great way to get out and support local, independent business. Tee & Cakes has donated some gift cards and tees to Absolute Vinyl… 4474 North Broadway, Boulder, CO 80304. Event starts at 11 a.m.

Tee & Cakes is big on music and love us some vinyl. I take a lot of vinyl I get from local record stores and convert the records to MP3 to play in the shop. We have a huge collection of music on the shop iPod and you never know what you will hear when you walk in.

CONTEST: 1st person to guess the record that I’m spinning above for a free 12oz bag of Novo Coffee or 1/2 dozen cupcakes*. Email me at Brian @ teeandcakes

Check out Albums on the Hill and Bart’s Music Shack while you’re out and about.

* Tim, you are excluded. It’s your record.

Munchkin Masquerade Coloring Contest: Winner Gets a Dozen Cupcakes!

10.26.10

Sorry, this one is for the Munchkins only…

This year we have partnered with one the Masquerade’s main sponsors, Clementine Art Studio to provide green-friendly crayon “rocks” to use for our coloring contest. Yep, the sweet shop is not giving away cupcakes or candy. I think there will still be plenty to go around from all the other great local businesses…

Tee & Cakes will be posted by Into the Wind on Pearl, where we will be giving out the Crayons and the official Coloring Contest Sheets. We are rewarding only one creative kid artist who can wow us with their talents and skills in the coloring of our cupcake logo (see below)

What: Downtown Boulder’s Munchkin Masquerade
Where: The Pearl Street Mall
When: Sunday, October 31, 2 – 5 p.m.

Each Halloween Downtown Boulder is invaded by 2,000+ tiny ghosts & goblins, dinosaurs & dragons, fairies & princes, super heroes and animals of every size trick-or-treating along Pearl Street’s pedestrian mall and the East and West Ends.

Downtown Boulder has partnered with Clementine Art this year to promote a Green Halloween Thanks to Clementine Art’s generous sponsors, many of our participating merchants will be providing healthier and greener snacks for your kids!

Story Contest Winner!

06.17.10

Woohoo! The Tee & Cakes literature board has arrived a decision. And it was a tough one. There were many adventures to follow and many compelling stories told. This one however, was written by 9 year old Astrid Patten and really made us all laugh, all the while we were hanging on to her words to reach the next adventure in the story. As the winner she will receive 12 free cupcakes!

Wait till you find out what a Nagataur is! And the Ovenworld… whoa! Crazy.

CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED. RESULTS POSTED SOON…

Deadline: June 1, 2o10 (sounds far away, but it’s not really)
Guidelines: 500-1000 word story that includes all 3 “things”
Submission: info at teeandcakes .com (subject: Cookie Tale)
Prize: Tee & Cakes Literature Panel will review the best story for a prize of one dozen (12) cupcakes.
