One of the reasons I love my neighborhood is the Royal Bagel Bakery, which is a ten to fifteen minute walk, depending on weather. They do special pastries for holidays, everything from hamantashen for Purim to Christmas stolen and struffuli to sphgatelle for St. Jospeh's Day. For Easter, they do panatonne

Made for St. Joseph's Day and Easter, these clamshell-shaped pastries are flaky on the outside and tasty cream-cheese goodness on the inside.

I'm sharing these with [livejournal.com profile] sanj and [livejournal.com profile] ellen_fremedon -- better than a basket full of chocolate, no?

Shameless? Me?

I don't think they'd survive being express mailed to Oklahoma -- though I did once take struffuli to Dallas for Christmas. Sticky fun for everyone.

Man, and there's no way I can get to Maryland tonight. 'Cause, y'know, that would just be troublesome all 'round. Sigh. Eat some for me, would you? I need to find a bakery around here that does the nifty stuff.
