brunch at le gamin - audrey & m and got croque-mesdames, and i got their pain perdu

(french toast). the croque was really good, despite the heavy richness of the béchamel.

but my french toast was a disappointment from what i remember them to be - made

crispy with baguette, not this thick slab of mushy brioche. oh well, you win some, you

lose some!

later in the afternoon, we went to get some coffee and dessert :

we ended up at blue stove bakery, with a hot coffee & an iced, and their last slice

of key lime pie - which was pretty good, but too sweet for my taste. next key lime

pie craving attack, i'll know to head to pequeña, and order apple pie here instead.
