My Mom

This is my mom.

Can you guess...

where I got...

...my love for desserts!!!!

The picture at the top is of my mom and I at ChikaLicious in New York. In front of us you can see three desserts: a fromage blanc cheese cake (hard to see on the bright white plate), a warm chocolate tart with pink peppercorn ice cream and red wine sauce, and the third I can't remember, but it was chikalicious!

The next picture is my mom enjoying her cafe' con panna in Florence, and the last is of her trying to put an entire morning bun in her mouth at Tartine.

My mom is an awesome cook and we often work side-by-side in the kitchen. She does the savory stuff and I do the sweet. So while my mom doesn't cook too many sweets, she does love to eat them with me. We have had countless wonderful outings together that revolve around trying new bakeries or re-visiting our old favorites. She's the best mom ever.
