This weekend I stopped in an amazing little shop in what I hope will be my new neighborhood (after the last house deal fell through, I'm afraid to count my chickens until we have the keys in hand). Roslindale Village seems to be a warm little enclave within Boston, and I can't wait to get to know the community. Anyway, back to my point.... at Joanne Rossman , puveyer of the unnecessary and irresistible, I bought an Easter egg diorama made completely of sugar. I had one of these as a kid, and remember well all the time I spent staring into it, torn by my urges to covet this magical world or just eat the damn thing. It's really kind of torture for a kid - giving them a fragile object made of sugar and then telling them they can't eat it.
A little broke off when I took the photos, and I must say it was quite tasty. Now who shall I bequeath this torturous gift upon?
thanks for the heads up about this shop. i will head out to roslindale asap to check it out.
ReplyDeleteI've read really good reviews on some of the restaurants there as well, but have yet to try them out.
