Chuckro wanted to come up with a party idea for my birthday that could be safely done under current circumstances. His idea? Bakery crawl! It's like a pub crawl, only without the public drunkenness, and possible to do with a child in tow and without removing masks inside.
Several friends met up with us, and we took a three hour walk (extremely well-bundled, because it was a high of like 22 degrees today), stopping at a number of different dessert places/bakeries/coffee shops. We'd send one person in to buy one or two things, and then split them so everyone got one or two bites, then headed off to the next place.
So I ended up getting a bite each of: dulce du leche babka, cheesecake horn, chocolate cantucci, golden monkey bread, chocolate cake truffle, chocolate whoopie pie, red velvet cupcake, pecan bar, and escargot à la cannelle (also called a cinnamon snail). It was a delightful way to spend an afternoon, see friends, but stay 95% outside and mostly masked. Chuckro has good ideas.
