Today one of my coworkers turned 50, and my buddy London made this cake for the occasion. It's called a hazelnut crunch cake with honeyed kumquats. So I have now eaten kumquats! And man, if you want to try them? Try them in this cake! Slices of heaven, I am telling you. That frosting? It has mascarpone and brandy in it. Man, oh man. That was one of the best cakes I have ever had.Not much else has been happening around here. Work, home, sleep, work, exercise, home, sleep. So boring! But this weekend should get a little more interesting. You know, with my SECOND FAVORITE HOLIDAY and all (Halloween will always be first).
