Small Batches of Demented Joy
Zach's mom is visiting, and we introduced her to one of the very best things about the neighborhood where we live: Pazzo Gelato.
They have an incredible array of flavors—about 20 different ones on any given day, so we never know what we'll find.
Tonight I had Mint Chip and Venezuelan Chocolate (pedestrian, I know). Zach had Tiramisu and Buttered Brown Sugar with Cinnamon. Zach's mom had Avocado (really!) and Almond Rum. (Two nights ago she had Avocado and Limoncello, which might sound strange but made her toes curl.)
The scooper tonight knew how much she grooved on the Avocado, which was running low. After we paid and were standing around kibitzing and enjoying our gelato, he surreptitiously scooped the rest into a takeout container and gave it to her as a gift.
Honestly, if you visit LA, you really must go.
And if you visit us in LA, we'll be sure to take you!
