new french patisserie in town
seems an impossible challenge
to make the right choice
yet an impossible challenge
to choose wrong.

“but compared with the task of selecting a piece of french pastry held by an impatient waiter,
a move in chess is like reaching for a salary check in its demand on the contemplative faculties.”

A different one every day so that you will have knowledge of the taste of all of them and volunteer to help others facing the same dilemma of which to choose. Don’t think of it as indulgence, think of it as public service to others!!!
