Carlo's bakery - Cake Boss

Yes! I finally got to visit Carlo's Bakery. As expected the lines were huge and it was stuffy inside the bakery. I wish I could take a bite out of each and every cute pastry :)

I tried the nutella cream puff (i think that is what its called) and an Eclair. The filling inside tasted more like vanilla pudding, but I'm not sure if that is how it is supposed to be. They were delicious regardless.

Here is some eye candy for those who would like to feel hungry. ^-^

Sweet Tooth

Hey girl did you know you can have french pastry out of France?

Whoa!!!

Whoa look macarons!

Whoa!!!!

Yes i know....silly... but that was my experession when I randomly discovered this cutsey bakery. It was my first time experiencing macarons and they were delicious. vman and I got a six pack and the flavors were rose, lavender, nutella, passion fruit, raspberry with chocolate ganache, salt caramel. They were tinier than what I was expecting, but the flavors got me so excited that I went straight to having the deliciousness..

My favorites were lavender and salt caramel and vman liked the salt caramel and nutella the most. I would definitely love to try the real deal in France. But this experience made me realize that I need to tap into the bakery scene and get my sweet tooth out for grazing :P

I lovee the pic of the self portrait of this really great artist. Can you guess who the artist is??

Here are pics of the beauties that we munched on:

Reboot...

So Virginia experience went by in a haze. Work experience was good in the sense that I got to understand different personalities including mine. I fell in love with my family in a new way (good way, a way that should have been from the start). It was nice getting to know an old friend and meeting new ones and having so many nice experiences with food.

I was quite apprehensive restarting a new life again when I got back, but He has been merciful to me and things are flowing well so far. I have had a lot of free time after Virginia which allowed me to reconnect with myself in new levels and be happy with who I am.

I am finally ready to restart where I left of this blog and write about my passion for food.

Of course thanks to my two fans for encouraging me to restart... love ya!
