HIs favorite dessert is cooling on the counter (for the record: apple) while he rides a taxi back from the airport. Craig’s been gone for two and a half months shooting his movie and tonight he returns. If the blog goes neglected for the next 48 hours, you’ll understand why: we have to hunt down the perfect vanilla ice cream to go with the first slice. Wish us luck….

Brooklyn restaurant for you to try: Bedouin Tent on Atlantic Ave in Boreum Hill.While visiting Brooklyn from CO, I found out my sister who lives in Brooklyn reads your blog also…
Thanks Adam! I’m going to try my hand at it, I’m not all that great at baking..all that measuring and stuff throws me off lol
Hey Wonders—it’s Martha Stewart’s recipe, with a Barefoot Contessa flourish: I added orange zest to the mix in the middle. Everything else is Martha and it’s a GREAT recipe.Adam

ciao bella vanilla and laboratorio del gelato are my votes for the best vanilla you can find in New York.
