TINY MANGO PIES! But first, some other things.

It's been awhile, no? A lot's been going on. I went back home to visit, and had a final dinner at Susur. And while I am sad his Toronto location is closing (Lee isn't the same, kids), I am excited to see what he opens in NYC.

The Toronto weekend was incredibly fun. I heart being happy like that.

What else? Oh, I'm riding a lot. On my bike. AND ON A HORSE. That's right, Jen, Allison and I started horseback riding lessons yesterday. We all spent hours on horseback as children, but - well, we're children no more. Loving it. LOVE.

And on to the pies.

Because we can't help but fall in love with awesome, tiny food, Jen and I decided to steal this idea from NotMartha and make tiny pies in 4oz jars this afternoon. Jen took the first 3 pictures, and I took the rest.

I give you: Wee Mango Pies

Soma Chocolate - Recommendations, Please

On Friday, I will find my fine self in the Distillery District of Toronto, as I shall be a-Birthday dining at Perigee. But that got me thinking...what other lovely things are in down there? What other, lovely, tasty things made of chocolate? Oh, right, Soma!

So I need your recommendations on products. Please keep in mind that I like dark chocolate, the kind that sits at 70% cacao content, and I'm not too fond of whole nuts.

Okay, GO!
