Let's just hope that this doesn't turn into an off topic free for all.

I like pumpkin pie.

Ever had a salted caramel French macaron? It will melt your face off.

You should use nylon thread for the leather - it will hold up and no need to double.

Has anyone ever tried a turnip ?

How many times do I have to tell you people? Unicorns were hunted to extinction in the 1740s!

I'm fortunate enough to have an amazing baker for a wife. So I enjoy them probably a little more often than I should. If you don't have that luxury and there aren't any French bakeries up in Canadia, then I guess you'll have to go mail order. I can't imagine that they would travel well though. Sorry, bro.
