Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's basically how you make cream puffs or eclairs, no?

I think so, Jesse! I should try that sometime.

Because books.

I had them at a restaurant called Artisanal in NYC a couple years ago and fell in love. S. has made them a couple times really well, but I thought they were sort of a pain to make.

Maybe he's just a bitchy cook!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Does someone want to come here and make me some?

The gougeres at Artisinal were the best thing about my job at United Way (in the building upstairs).

I have no idea what these are, but holy god, they sound good.

I am Dana in this. Except that now they've been explained. But I was thinking, these sound awesome; how have I never had nor heard of them?? I marked the recipe and Steph's pumpkin bread recipe.

We made four pies today - pumpkin, cherry, apple-bourbon, and a hybrid cherry apple-bourbon pie with leftover filling. All but the pumpkin have delicious streusel on top. The hybrid pie was taste-tested tonight and is yum.

I really need to get off my ass and bake a pie. Argh.

You worked above Artisanal? Lucky girl.

apple-bourbon pie??? holy yum!!!

I think you can make gougeres in a fussier but prettier way with a pastry bag, maybe? I am all about dropping them randomly sized with a spoon! Still always delicious!

I went there surprisingly little, considering. I mean, considering how I feel about cheese! But it's pricy and I didn't really like most of my coworkers.
