[bicentennial_baby]

So tonight, Sniffa took me for my first trip to Mike's Pastry in Boston's North End...Pastry Heaven :9

I got cannollis, and chocolate covered cream puffs...Mike got cannollis, marzipan, cookies... :9

[bicentennial_baby]

[Nicole]

I think I just gained 20 lbs. though. :scared:

[bicentennial_baby]

[Wapsie B]

God those cannollis look so decadent.

[bicentennial_baby]

5. They are....oh my yes...

[Wapsie B]

17. Oh god talk dirty some more.

[graywarrior]

10. OMG, I miss that place!

[bicentennial_baby]

13. It blew my mind....

seriously :wow:

[graywarrior]

16. That's its job.

[peacefreak]

11. Oh yeah, baby.

Done that. Heaven packed in a blue & white box, tied with string.

[bicentennial_baby]

14. Heehee, indeed

:9

[GOPisEvil]

12. Mmmm...I want some cannoli...

Too bad the Italian market is closed. Maybe I'll hold out 'til tomorrow. ;)

[bicentennial_baby]

19. If you were here...

I'd share mine :)

[GOPisEvil]

21. Must. Not. Make.

Hide. The. Cannoli. Joke.

:evilgrin:

That's the cool thing about buying desserts with a group of people. Everyone can buy something different and share. :)

[bicentennial_baby]

23. That's what we did....The place is insane!

We had to double park, as it was Saturday night in the North End, so I went in first, and then when I was done, Sniffa went in while I sat with the car...The place is like the stock market...People yelling, passing food and money...wild :crazy:

[GOPisEvil]

24. That's so different and sounds so cool!

The place I go to is much more sedate. Damned yuppies. :D

If you watch cooking shows on PBS, it's owned by Damian Mandola. I think he co-founded Carraba's. :shrug:

[bicentennial_baby]

25. Yeah, I know that name

:)

This place is nuts, but it's so f'n good and fun, in a way...I'm no longer a Mike's Pastry virgin, hehe :P

:pals:

[GOPisEvil]

26. Damn that matcom!

He really doesn't love me. He didn't take me there! Although, we broke his Krispy Kreme cherry while I was there. :D

[bicentennial_baby]

28. He didn't?

:wow:

Baby, you come see *me*, and we will go to Mike's Pastry....promise :D

I've become quite the foodie, since I moved in with these two crazy kats... :D

Sniffa and I go shopping every Sunday for fresh meat and produce, and we cook wacky meals every night...Sooo yummy, and so much better than takeout and/or frozen crap :)

[GOPisEvil]

30. Now that sounds like a deal!

Ever since I started watching the food network, I've gotten adventurous in the kitchen. Rarely has anything come out awful.

I brown bag it most days at the office. I like to make my cow-irkers jealous. }(

[WCGreen]

18. Leave the Gun.....

Take the Cannoli....

[bicentennial_baby]

20. Haha....indeed

Oh Cannoli...yummy yum yum :9

[WCGreen]

22. And it's cream filled as well...

[nickshepDEM]

27. Whats a cannolli?

just kidding. :)

[bicentennial_baby]

29. Eh, shaadap you....

So I can't spell *every* word....too late to edit. :spank:

[Kat45]

31. President Clinton got a cannolli at Mike's when he was in Boston.

Do you think he shared it? :-)

Say "hi" to the Sniffas for me. :hi:

[bicentennial_baby]

33. I wouldn't...

:D

And I will :hi:

[NewWaveChick1981]

32. Oh, yeah! Got some goodies from Mike's when I was in Boston

a couple of weeks ago. :9 Damn, it was good! Got a chocolate cannoli and some cookies after we ate at La Dolce Vita. Man, that was so freaking good... :bounce: :toast: :party:

You lucky dog... :D (It's probably a good thing I don't live near there.... I'd be at Mike's way too much! :yoiks: )

[bicentennial_baby]

34. Yay! Good for you!

:bounce:

I'd go there more oftne, but I don't know if my bp can handle the traffic :o

:pals:

[Mrs.Matcom]

35. Try Modern Bakery next

It is right down the street, not as crazy and I prefer their cannolli's over Mike's. We have a little place out here called Ray & Dick's Bakery, and you want to die for Italian Rum cake? This is the place!! I go there every so often to get an Italian Bakery fix...yummo!! :hi:

[bicentennial_baby]

36. Have you been watching Rachel Ray?

:o Yummo?!

:P

And hey, why didn't Matcom take GOPisEvil to Mike's? He's very sad... :(

:hi:

[Mrs.Matcom]

37. LOL!!!

Yes I do watch Rachel Ray from time to time, and threw that yummo in to see who else would catch it, and of course you would because you are smart!!

The day David was up it was raining and we did the duck tours and headed over to King's bowling alley for the meet up. We didn't have time to explore the North end that day, Next day we were too hung and too tired to make it back into the city. I will take him in next time he comes up and we will go to some of the great restaurants in there too. Feed him well and get him liquored up :D
