Brutal Break-Up? Bounce Back @ Bon Bon
“Breaking up is hard to do.” If I had a nickel for every time I heard that proverb, I’d have about 75 cents. But I’m finally putting an end to this nonsense. Damsels, repeat after me: BREAKING UP IS FUN TO DO. Why? It provides us with a perfectly legitimate excuse to binge on chocolate. Validation for extreme overindulgence doesn’t come around often; we should celebrate it while it lasts!
Don’t bother trekking to the North End for your fix. Bon Bon (197A Mass Ave) is a tiny, magical wonderland of candies, cookies, chocolates, gelato, and organic tea. The Italian owner traveled the world in search of unique flavors, and returned with a collection of secret recipes that is now worth thousands. Plus, this place is filled with men as tasty as the treats; maybe it’s coincidental, or maybe they know it’s a haven for freshly single babes. Either way, their presence is fine by me.
To sum it up: why wallow in self-pity when you can wallow in dessert?
i MISS gelato SOOOOOO much and why’s that place gotta be 8 hours away?
next time i’m in Beantown I am totally going.
That just looks amazing. I’m tempted to hop on a plane and fly to Boston just for that. I’m sure my cousins wouldn’t mind putting me up for a couple days… ^_^
We have a gelato place right by me. It’s so damn good. I frequent this place mostly in the summer after I drank lots of wine at my favorite restaurant.
Forget the brutal break-up, eat chocolate, cookie dough (my fave), brownies and hot chocolate as often as you can. I do.
oooh that sounds delish!
wow… i just broke up with my boyfriend. i need to go to this place! another good thing about breaking up. moms taking you on sympathy shopping sprees
