Hi! My name is Melissa, aka The Healthy Cupcake, and welcome to my blog =)
I am a 25 year old Jersey girl who now resides in San Diego lives in southern New Jersey with my boyfriend, Shane.
I'm the proud mommy of two kitty cats, Daisy and Princess.
I LOVE all things cupcake.
I love to bake and someday soon want to take a cake decorating class. I read books and practice, but I think the hands on experience of a class would really improve my skills.
When cooking, I like to take recipes and improvise. Sometimes it turns out delicious, other times I resort to eating a back up dinner. Either way, I am having fun learning my way around the kitchen.

I am obsessed with peanut butter, sweet potatoes, ketchup, ice cream sandwiches and salads the size of my head.
I love running and seriously get runner's high every time I cross a finish line. I am not fast, but I'm working on it ;)
I am a vegetarian, do not drink milk, and in general limit my dairy consumption.
I started The Healthy Cupcake for a few reasons:
- I had read healthy living blogs for a few months and wanted to join in on the conversation
- share my passion for running and an active lifestyle
- keep track of recipes and have the courage to try new ones
- share my adventures in San Diego
- document 2011; I can tell it's gonna be a good one :)
Thanks for reading!
