hoboken ..

while in new york we took the train to hoboken ..

why would we go to hoboken you ask .. 

because that is where carlo's bake shop is ..

cake boss !!!

this was on ellie's list when we went to new york for the marathon ..

we didn't quite make it there then so it was top priority this time ..

we had to stand in line for 47 minutes .. 

jeff was the official time keeper so i am certain of the minutes ..

when someone walks out they let more people into the store itself ..

there is a "bouncer of sorts" .. he motions you to come in and then hands you a number ..

i was excited once we made it into the bake shop ..

thinking that things will start to move much faster ..

not really ..

they were on #5 when we got inside .. we were #20 .. 

after waiting another 51 minutes we walked out with 

turkey cupcakes, chocolate dipped cannoli's and sugar drop cookies ..

cash carried the bag for a bit .. after the 3rd high swing in the air i took the bag back ..

poor turkeys .. 

they were worth the wait if you ask the kids and i ..

not so much if you ask jeff .. 

more importantly .. ellie got to scratch that off her bucket list !
