How much

should a Biscotti cost?
Today we went to a downtown in the evening. There was a banner with 'art walk' on it. We saw only one white tent. Looks like everyone packed up. I dont know if you have ever seen coffee shops when there's art walks or parades going on outside. But today I saw the scene a'after'. All the baked goods were gone and there was just a plate of biscotti for 2.25 each. I figured that it must be the hungry visitors from the art walk.
We were lured in with the mentions of a Pumpkin spice latte and had to go for gingerbread latte, thanks to the friendly visitors.
One thing he did have was a cool thing called Square, a credit card reader. It had the looks of a thing which could do more than that.

She said that as she would shape the dough, it would spring back to its original shape. That makes me appreciate the complexity of dishes and the act of cooking. My neighbor impressed with my interest in he sweet, shared some Mohanthal with us. It is truly a sweet from heaven. I was reminded of a sweet from my marriage. Another neighbor quipped about the satisfactoin of eating when very hungry and not as much when you eat on time everyday, which resonated in the following lines of Charles Bukowski in  Wandering in the cage. "the best thing about near-starvation and hunger is that when you finally eat it is such a beautiful and delicious and magical thing. people who eat 3 meals a day throughout life have never really tasted food… "
