No School? Let's Go See the CAKE BOSS!

What do you do when you have a day off of school?  How about leave the house at 6:00 a.m., meet some friends, and drive to Hoboken, New Jersey to see the Cake Boss!!  Definately one of the bonuses of living on the east coast!!

The drive from our home in south-eastern Pennsylvania to Hoboken, New Jersey is just a short two hour drive.  It couldn't have been a more beautiful morning.  The trees are teasing us with their beautiful yellows, reds and golds.  Sometimes it even feels like it's raining yellow leaves.  The fall weather this week has been spectacular!

Here's a few pictures of our Family Field Trip to Carlos Bakery! 





Just for the record, I think we broke it when we walked out of Buddy's shop with a mere $80 worth of pastries.  We bought an authentic New York Crumb Cake, another kind of cake, Bob's favorite Napoleans, Italian lobster tails, chocolate cannolis, and just plain overkill of every other kind of pastry and cookie that we couldn't resist.  (This is, after all, the one, the only Carlo's Bakery!!)

Hey, when you drive 100 miles to get to THE bakery, you better have something to show for it!!  (Let me just say.....the crumb cake was TO DIE FOR!!)
