I wish I could bake with you, Miss H! Why haven't you come to visit yet?

I'll be moving into my new place at the end of next week. You should come stay with me for a weekend. Please?

please open a bakery with me! it's the only thing that would make me happy right now i think.

where is your new place? is it very far from where you are now? i do need to visit you.

p.s. is this place near you? http://www.ripsneakers.com/monks/ i want to go there if/when i come

I would LOVE to open a bakery with you!

My new place is at 4th and Catharine Sts (I'm at 20th and Pine right now, so it's 16 blocks over + maybe 6 or 8 blocks south). A good stretch of 4th St. is "Fabric Row" which is where all the good fabric stores are in the city. I'm excited about that as I bought a new sewing machine! Once I get up and running, give me your measurements and I'll make you a cute dress or shirt!

Monk's is really close to where I am at the moment, probably 5 blocks! Philly is a really easy city to get around cheaply (walking, Philly Phlash bus, etc.), so we could visit Monk's no problem even after I move.

I think my new neighborhood will be really nice. It was called New Sweden when it was first settled by the Swedes and then the Brits took it over and called it Southwark and they finally decided on Queen Village which is what it's called today. I'll find all the good stuff before you come visit so we'll have plenty to do!

I REALLY WANT YOU TO VISIT. I don't know if you knew that...

banana chocolate chip bread? why does that sound like one of those flavor combinations that are so utterly confusing and so very pleasing all at once?

and may i suggest these? nutella is bliss.

[bemyjoeyramone]

[hollymayberry]

oh...my...god...

i am on my way to purchase nutella and cream cheese to make those right now. brownies? look more like solid squares of fudgy heavenliness
