Oy. Dominique Ansel, inventor (perpetrator?) of the Cronut is unveiling (unleashing?) his Next Big Thing tomorrow--the shot glass-shaped cookie, filled with organic (of course) artisnal (mais certainment) vanilla-infused (why not?) milk.

I haven't walked over there today--I imagine they are already lining up. Only the first 100 people will be served, apparently...

"The milk, which comes from Swede Farm in upstate New York, is organic and cold-infused with vanilla beans for 24 hours"

I feel like anybody could make those.

They have to be leak-proof.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

As someone who lucked out on getting a Cronut during a trip last month to NYC, I have to say it was quite good.

Hey Dottie! Did your colleagues enjoy the cake even though your cat decided to sit on it? ~GuyfromGermany

Well--not indefinitely. How long are you going to nurse a shot of artisnal, organic, vanilla-infused milk??

It does seem like a mini-muffin pan and some cookie-dough are all one would need.

Or you could get a sleeping bag and camp out on Spring Street for the next 11 days until you make your way to the front of the line and enjoy the privilege of buying 2 of the 'genuine' version.

I mean, cookie bowls already exist.

Sweet and rated 'somewhat easy'--just like I like 'em!

What's wrong with having a separate glass of milk with your cookies? Also, what if I like drinking my milk AFTER eating the cookies?

That's nothing...

There's a new donut shop in WeHo that's stuffing beignets with fried chicken. Stuffing. Beignets. With fried chicken. It's called Glazed Donut Bistro, and it's about to change everything, starting with your New England shrimp roll (which now comes in a Long John, instead of a bun).
Here's a look at every line-blurring donut on the menu...

Le Spirit Lounge, a great vegetarian restaurant that sadly recently closed but was just outside Montreal's gay village had something basically exactly like this (with less pretension--the place thrived on being kitsch) over ten years back.
