But what I actually wanted to say is that if you haven't yet tried the GCB vanilla cake, you must. It's like the world's best doughnut, only it's cake. If you get there pretty early, like around 11:30, sometimes it's also still just a teensy bit warm and melty in the middle. *sigh* I agree about the cranberry-pistachio shortbread . . . the texture is amazing; most large-scale-produced shortbread is doughy, missing the whole point.

I still haven't gotten the consistency right after 2 tries, but crap they taste amazing.

GCB is Grand Central Bakery and is, sadly for you, confined to Portland and Seattle. You should just start a list of Things To Eat for your next visit. Also, I apologize for often writing my blog in a geographically biased manner. I shall henceforth remember that not everyone lives down the street from me (though you all should, I think).
