For someone who has been trying to cut sugar out of her diet, I’ve done a swell job. Darn you, sweet tooth! Foiled in Edinburgh on every corner. . . but it’s sooo worth it.

Dear Cath,
I thought this would be a good post to squeeze in right before Thanksgiving — get your taste buds prepped for feasting. Hope you have a fun short work week! Are you Black Friday shopping? I’ve always been such a weenie when it comes to that stuff — and too much in a Peking Duck haze to want to shop (good thing I have your prezie already).
I’ll be back in wifi land by Friday evening. Skype date?
xoxoxox,
Lar
Isn’t it so funny that you got the sweet tooth? I mean, all those photos look amazing, but I’ll take cheese and fries over that any day (as I’m writing this, I’m eating a egg and cheese biscuit, oy).
Also, I’ve been to 3 out of the six places you’ve mentioned! Next time I’m in Edinburgh visiting you, you’ll have to take me to Love Crumbs and Wedgewood and tell Sara I can help be a taste tester for her creations.
For the record, I will not be black friday shopping, but I will be Small Business Saturday shopping that following day!
Can wait to hear all about your Thanksgiving trip. Skype me as soon as you get back!!!
xoxo, Cath
oh my goodness that all looks so amazing! i haven’t had any breakfast yet.and now you have my tummy growling for SUGAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don’t even like sweets, and I’m so totally craving some now. The hot chocolate looks so decadent and real chocolate-y. I’ve been wanting some REAL, thick hot chocolate for a very long time now, and Starbucks just doesn’t cut it!
