My alter ego


I've always thought tiramisu is so damn hard, but i've made it, taste aside, it is possible, it took walking down the aisle of woolsworth @ townhall looking for sponge fingers, it finally took a woolsworth guy telling me what mascarpone is, it took the liquorland dude telling me which fortified wine is good enough, it took using tissue to filter the coffee, it took speaking to the lady at the deli, asking 'are you greek or italian' and then her telling me 'i'm greek but my brother in law is italian and he uses brandy, marsala is not good'. And so now, my new mission in life: 

Making the perfect tiramisu.
