To Each His Own

I was talking with a friend of mine the other day about my daughter's new obsession with Twilight. As we talked about which of the characters she was "crushing" on, my friend jokingly asked me which actors I liked. I hesitated, and my daughter piped up, "Don't you like that Wolverine guy?" My friend wrinkled her nose and said, "Ugh, Hugh Jackman? You like Hugh Jackman?" I laughed, but later I thought about it. My first thought was, Hell yeah, Hugh Jackman! Who wouldn't like Wolverine?! But my next thought was how different people's preferences are. It's kind of amazing, when you think about it. And hey, even the Romans knew "De gustibus non est disputandum"...there's no accounting for taste.

Just like me, you like what you like, and you know it when you see it. I like to think I can predict what other people are going to like, but it doesn't always work that way. Sometimes I get it right, and sometimes...well, not so much. Because of this, I go back to the drawing board quite frequently, and try to keep new designs coming all the time. (I also get rid of some of the old ones that don't seem that popular.)

I've just added a bunch of new tag and label designs to the site, including some new cupcake designs to go with this popular new flavor. Let me know what you think of the tags, and please, always feel free to let me know what YOU like! Leave a comment below or send me an email. Are there other products or designs you'd like to see? A wedding or party theme I've missed completely? Do YOU hate Hugh Jackman as much as my friend does?! :0) Let me know! (I won't hold it against you!)
