just looking at this picture of these croissants makes me hungry. williams-sonoma ships out this mix of plain and chocolate croissants (15 of each) for a whopping $72. yes, i think that’s really expensive, but man, i want them anyway! i absolutely love chocolate croissants.. i totally inherited my mom’s love for both sweets and [...]

history classes must have been my most hated subject growing up. i always did alright but i hated memorizing (b.c.) dates and (dead) people and (no longer existing) places – 9th grade honors western civilization was the worst. i have not once brought up mesopotamian economy and class structure as any sort of conversation starter.
