Dostoevsky vs. “Big Candy”


I really should have linked to Tommy’s write up of BonBonBars on Macerating Shallots sooner, not just because it’s fun to read and quite flattering, but like a song rolling around in my head, I’ve found myself thinking and smiling about two ideas from it during my weekends in the kitchen. The first is that my “confections are to a normal sugar fix what Dostoevsky is to Danielle Steele” and second is the phrase “Big Candy.” And here’s my confession: combined, this has kind of morphed into an image that’s really hard to get out of my head… of me — see my li’l pic to the right! — as a quality-confection makin’ Fyodor Dostoevsky (his pic) going up against the nefarious forces of “Big Candy” (cartoonish stock villians mostly). Danielle Steele hasn’t entered the picture yet, but now I suspect it’s just a matter of time… Obviously, my mind has a way of wandering as I enrobe my candy bars.

Anyway, go check out Tommy’s post!
