INKSTAND

Oh, my God! How can I never have tried one of these before? I was in the Metropolitan Market on Quenn Anne and was about to pick up a ham and cheese croissant, or a no-bake oatmeal cookie. Look, I know it’s a competetor but really, it was on my way. I’m not that loyal. The italian slipper is reason enough.
This is a confection in the “puff pastry” family that has the consistency of a croissant but is, i believe, much sweeter and dusted with powdered sugar. The bast part? The part that got me, totally unexpected? The delectable pear filling! Oh, my Christ, was it good! The worst part about it is that it was $2.49. That’s ridiculously steep in my book but I’ll be damned if this isn’t something I will treat myself to on a regualr basis.
