“Who wants some macaroni?” - Zeke, holding up a box of macarons.

“...Macaroni? MACARONI?! VOUS MOQUEZ DE MOI QU'EST-CE QUE VOUS VOULEZ DIRE PAR 'MACARONIS' N'APPORTEZ PAS CETTE RACAILLE ITAANLIENNE DANS LE PÉRIMÈTER DE—” - Levi

Translation: “Macaroni?! Are you mocking me?! What do you mean by 'macaroni'?! Don't bring that Italian scum near—”

I am aware that Levi is NOT canonically French, but I still enjoy the headcanon as I find it funny. I apologize if the translation is incorrect, this was taken from a Twitter meme.

this week, i had coffee with an old acquaintance at the local shop owned by buffy the vampire slayer's stunt double. we talked about how the life expectancy of his four year old has gone from forty-two to fifty-four because of new treatments and it was good to see the light in his eyes when he told me

my mom turned seventy-three on wednesday. we ate barbacoa tacos at their kitchen table and caught up on family news

all the trails were closed yesterday for bridge maintenance so i cleaned my floors and fixed a bunch of food instead of rambling

last night i dreamt that i worked in a noodle shop in japan and everyone was glad i was there

i have a load of laundry in the dryer. i'm going to pile the hot towels on the bed on top of boba as soon as they are done. she circles around and makes a little cave inside and it's one of her favorite things

i'm not sure what i am going to do this weekend, but there are a lot of options and i am happy to let serendipity reign

Watching so much fairy-related media lately made me want to get back to Butterbean's Cafe, but since its original run was plagued by episodes being aired way out of order, I've decided to follow the production order of the episodes, except for when there's a continuity issue. For example, The Grand Opening, while obviously the first episode, is episode 7 according to the production code. And their delivery truck isn't introduced until episode 5, even though it's seen in the second half of the very second episode.

Common Bond Bakery & Bistro

For my very first blog I'd like to showcase a charming café that has become very near and dear to my daughter and I. Common Bond Bakery & Bistro has so much character and is a welcoming café that gives you Parisian vibes. The café Kami and I frequent is located in Spring, TX. Besides the welcoming vibe, the café offers delicious handmade pastries, hot expressos, flavorful brunch dishes, and signature drinks. While they have a large array of brunch dishes this place doesn't fall short on savory lunch items. 

The Nashville hot shrimp are my absolute favorite. They are crispy, bite-sized, packed with flavor, and have just the right amount of heat. If you don't like seafood they have a version of the Nashville hot chicken sandwich as well. The pork belly deviled eggs are divine, they are a creamy blend of salty richness with a hint of spice. The usual potluck deviled eggs have nothing on this palette pleaser. The chipotle mac and cheese bites cause an explosive party in your mouth. Your taste buds will cheer and dance from these deep-fried bites of cheesy goodness with a kick! My daughter swears by the sourdough gruyere and Swiss grilled cheese, which is their elevated take on the classic sandwich. It's melty-creamy richness stuffed between two slices of buttery crispy heaven. Kami also loves the BBQ chicken flatbread, which is always juicy, tender, and seasoned to perfection. 

Don't forget that this is a bakery so while you are tasting the succulent brunch and savory lunch dishes don't forget about the pastries. Common Bond has the most flaky, light, and buttery croissants you'll ever taste. Along with an array of puff pastries, cakes, cookies, Danish, and scones (just to name a few), there is definitely something for everyone and skipping out on the pastries would mean you truly missed a treat. 

The real star of the show is the French macarons. These delicate cookie-like confections have a slightly crispy exterior and a soft, sweet, light, and airy interior that literally melts in your mouth. All of the flavors are amazing, however, my personal favorite is the lavender creme (just trust me and try it lol). Common Bond is a must-try brunch spot and is on the top of my list of places to try while in Houston. There are several locations but the one listed below is my favorite. Check them out and let me know what you think!

I know it's essentially just a cartoon and i'm definitely overthinking this but everytime I watch pomeon xy I find it crazy that serena, bonnie, clement are basically French cause the kalos region is based on France. And then there's Ash basically just being a tourist and rocking up and accidentally finding a family (and his future wifey) in a foreign country/region 🥺
