That nectarine blossom and honey gelato sounds very interesting. Too bad I live about a zillion miles from New York!
I should say, all the gelato flavors sound interesting. I don’t suppose anyone could convince Bluebell to try an English Pear or Vanilla and Anise ice cream?
I want the macarons! But it all sounds good.
Me, too! I just got a recipe for violet macarons. I’m not big on sweets, but there is something just decadent and fun about those little crunchy-chewy colorful cookie puffs.
For some reason “taking to the streets in a branded fragrance truck” made me laugh. I want to try to work that into a conversation: “I’d love to stay and chat, but I have to go now. I’m taking to the streets in a branded fragrance truck.”
The whole Harajuku Lovers thing made me laugh — branded fragrance truck is just bonus
