Strawberry Banana Cream Pie(s)

Made these for hubby's birthday yesterday. Got the recipe from here. Instead of making one big pie, I got mini Dufour shells (chocolate) from Surfas. I made the custard, sliced up bananas and strawberries, and assembled it with my frosting kit (piping the custard and cream rather than spooning). They were super yummy and people liked being able to eat more than one...

Lunch(?) at Eclipse Chocolat

I had to drive to San Diego on an errand and it just so happens that my current favorite chocolate place is there: Eclipse Chocolat. This is the s'mores platter. Chili chocolate brownie, espresso brownie. Both topped with a housemade marshmallow on top. Served with lavendar sea salt and blood orange olive oil fondue (in the cup). My brain totally exploded. I took most of it to go along with a couple orders of "dry soda", truffles, and an aztec cinnamon roll. If you ever have a chance to be in SD, I recommend you make a stop. If you live in LA I know you can get their amazing sea salt caramel collection at Curious Palate (that is if I haven't already been there and wiped them out).
