Happy birthday for whichever day this month you're celebrating. <br /><br />Petrea ~ I can't believe yours is just around the corner again. They are already selling hot cross buns in supermarkets here. Could they not at least have the respect to wait until they've finished exploiting Valentine's Day?<br /><br />I consider my zero-calorie eye candy a valuable community service, dear Alexa! <br /><br />Cafe ~ oh, you're a naughty puppy dog. ;)<br /><br />Genie ~ so, did you flip a coin to decide who had the larger piece? I love the way Adam describes it as 'treat yourself to the baby as your dessert's dessert.' <br /><br />Susan ~ that's what I thought about the name when I first heard it, too. Sounds like it has an appropriate double meaning. As for our get together, I was going to mint match, but since you love my new dress, so much ... I might trade the gumboots for glass slippers, though, in case Hugh's around. Just temporarily. ;)Shell Sherreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00477843748741838608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815983123229218451.post-89455417850625431302013-02-03T15:05:15.857+10:002013-02-03T15:05:15.857+10:00I've never heard of this pastry either.

I am looking forward to glamming it up in mint with you in Paris! <br /><br />Or will you be wearing your slate dress? It's divine!

I could not see it very well but he was almost moaning as he devoured the whole thing. I asked him what it was and where he had found it...<br /><br />Holly and I at least shared one and proceeded to do the same. It would never have made it back to the apartment!<br /><br />Adam has a very nice job eating all the pastries in Paris! I love his site and have used his lists for my pastry hunt.<br /><br />Bises,<br />GenieGenie -- Paris and Beyondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12758801373365481655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815983123229218451.post-5673516394145177962013-02-03T05:42:19.578+10:002013-02-03T05:42:19.578+10:00That doesn't look like a nuns habit to me.

It looks much too delectable and tempting, so it's a good thing I don't have a plate of them before me right now :)<br /><br />But to share a five-tiered stand of them with everyone would be delightful.
