A minha mãe é doida por cupcakes. Tem vários livros sobre o assunto e está sempre a fazer experiências: doces, salgados, com mais ou menos creme. Visto serem os cupcakes os bolos nacionais americanos, e estando eu já tão sugestionada pela obsessão da minha mãe, é natural que tenha andado à caça dos melhores cupcakes de Nova Iorque.
My mother is crazy about cupcakes. She has several books on the subject and is always trying new things: sweet, salty, with more frosting, with less frosting. Due to the fact that cupcakes are USA's national cakes, and because I was already so affected by my mum's latest obsession, I went hunting for NYC's best cupcakes.
A Magnolia Bakery é tão famosa que até tem direito a artigo na wikipedia... Por mera coincidência, acabámos por ir às duas (abriu este ano outra em Columbus Avenue). De tudo o que lá vi, só trocaria as cortinas de renda por umas de algodão às risquinhas azuis claras e brancas.
Magnolia Bakery is so famous that it has its own wikipedia article... We happenned to go to both Magnolias (this year a new bakery opened in Columbus Avenue). From everything I saw over there I'd only chance the lace curtains by cotton ones... I'd pick a light blue and white striped fabric.
I like the idea of fueling up on cupcakes before going fabric shopping!
You're right about the disposable thing... so much stuff is made to be used only once, and then thrown away.... too much.
oh... I so agree with you on the rubbish here in the U.S. The "disposable" habit is horrendous.
By the way - your shop looks great!
