I went to the store and bought two chocochip cookies and two pineapple turnover bars from the Mex pastry counter!

The Mexicans make all kinds of wonderful cakes, cookies and pastries with a twist! Example? The choco cookies are more like a dense cake than a crispy cookie.

Same with the turnovers......

They are buttery, flaky in texture with a filling of pineapple preserves.

I sat down to have one the other day and about two seconds after I took the first bite I had a cat in my lap licking to buttery glaze off the top, then biting into the pineapple.....About two minutes later I had pastry flakes all over my shirt, pants and floor.

four miniutes later I had a cat grooming himself at my feet and he way passed out 7 minutes later.

The Edster loves cake crumbs and some sweets, but I had never seen him gorge himself on anything like that before.

I have another turnover that I plan on eating with some hot chocolate.

Oops, I Plan on SHARING it!
