I am firmly convinced that they have the best cupcakes in DC (sorry, Georgetown Cupcakes), along with delicious zucchini bread and delightfully refreshing iced herbal teas.
The shop is also located conveniently along my route into work, and always has parking outside, so when I am not metro-bus-ing, I often stop there for an iced coffee to get myself through the tribulations of Route 66.
My favorite thing about Baked and Wired, besides the barista who wears a tutu, the pink bike outside the door, the cute little matchboxes and stickers, the community blackboard, and the delightful cupcake display, is that they often display local artists on their walls.
The current exhibition features the work of Maggie Mae Musgrave, who does fun, graffiti-esque, poppy paintings of eclectic subjects such as crawdads and kittens.
My favorite piece, that I'm seriously considering purchasing, is this great cityscape of DC:
D'ya C me, by Maggie Mae Musgrave
I know it's kind of crazy and overwhelming, but it's bright, and fun, and could look kinda chic in the right spot, dontcha think?
