A Wonderland of Pinks & Chocolates

I love when the pink trees pop! this time of year. Plums and peaches--so many now just ornamental--show off their pretty pinks that glow against the misty storm clouds of February. Last weekend the sun was out full and bright so

Just can't get enough.

A highlight was my first venture into Faletti's with the most magical dessert section and all local/seasonal take out food section. It's like Whole Foods done right.
What's better than mini cupcake wonders?

That big fat chocolate chip cookie, that's what!

They create unbelievable sculpture cakes-this is one of the simple ones...
