One of the many joys of being a food writer is getting sweet assignments. Today’s was one of the sweetest! Leandro and I went to Bon Bons Chocolatier in Huntington Village to see how they confect their delicious treats. It smells like heaven and was the perfect place to spend a rainy weekend morning. So cozy and alive with happy things!
Next birthday perhaps?
The details are for Edible Long Island/Manhattan/Brooklyn/East End combined winter issue which should hit the streets around November 15, but I had to share a couple of pictures with you.
A lesson in dipping!
Mary Alice Meinersman — co-owner with her daughter Susannah — of Bon Bons Chocolatier was kind enough to give my son a quick lesson in dipping chocolate.
Pretty!
It was a delicious morning and I am looking forward to writing the piece!
The takeaway!
Hot, Cheap & Easy 
Yeah, I’ll say your perks are pretty sweet. Pun intended. 😉
Nice one! Thanks for the visit!
Wow – I think you lucked out there …and on a rainy day 😉
I actually scheduled according to the weather report and the footie fixtures. Today, indoor chocolatizing, African lunch and Leandro made pesto with the last of the summer basil for dinner. tomorrow morning, train into Manhattan to watch Chelsea in a pub with like-minded individuals and then a visit to The High Line (raised park and entertainment strip on an old Elevated train platform) in the sun!
Cool!
