Sweetest Thing



明天,就是鍋貼的生日。雖然,她”應該”還沒有辦法吃蛋糕,(照例: 她看到我們在吃東西,還是會哭哭啼啼的跑過來想要分一口),我總希望她的第一個生日有個美味的蛋糕(一群大人拿小孩子當藉口找美食吃)。沒有創意腦袋裡轉阿轉的,想到的是前陣子去過的Romolo’s的cassata蛋糕。

撥了通電話,接的人用帶著義大利口音的回話,詢問是否有cassata可以購買?老兄在電話那頭聳肩回答到: My grandma is away for a trip and won’t come back in two weeks.想必店奶奶應該是回義大利省親去。我不死心的問是否有可以買到其他義大利蛋糕的方法,老兄倒是用邊開玩笑的語氣: It’s not as good as ours and I shouldn’t say that. 很親切的推薦附近的另外一家義大利糕餅店。

想想,在美國兩年,最看不過去的不是那些”美”化的中菜日食,而是看起來五顏六色像是從打翻畫盤的卡通片中滾出來的蛋糕。雖然我沒有蛋糕胃,咬一口,嚐到漫口的甜膩。懷念起上次巴黎行窩在Paul店門前,掙扎著該不該花3歐元去買個macaroon

到Campbell新開的Satura日式蛋糕。咬下充滿熬過糖漿的藍莓,輕鬆且豐富Parfait,腦袋裡想起的是U2的sweetest things。 在充滿陽光的加州午後,有種回到年輕時光的錯覺。不知何時開始培養起吃甜食的興趣,唯一苦惱的,應該是那圈緊巴著我不放的Mr. Belly吧。

Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4
year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She put the shell to her ear and screamed.
There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!
