Yay for Passover!! Gluten free pound cake and macaroons on sale in the grocery! Woo hoo!

When will the holiday bounty end? Wait, Passover is sunset of March 29 to nightfall of 5 April / 6 April? (Sez wikipedia.) So the grocery store display is the same "weeks in advance" as for Easter. Ok, then.

Head full. Must rush to work. Eep.

Another item from the Asian market downtown. I find the packaging fascinating as i ponder snow in Thailand. I'm also wondering what the connection is between the happy snow beings and the cookies, but Toucan Sam pops to mind. I suspect it's best not to ponder marketing mascots too much.

These are sweet-savory, with most of the flavoring in the glaze. I know the sweet struck me more than the savory.
