When Curio Confections, the U-District bakery that is easily my very favorite in the entire city, announced that it was closing several months ago, I almost cried. Their adorable tartlets, drool-inducing pies and oh-my-god-this-is-the-best-thing-I’ve-ever-put-in-my-mouth chocolate chip cookies were always worth the extra gym time that that kind of indulgence requires.
So when Maria Friedman, the incredibly sweet (har har) proprietor, announced that Curio Confections was reopening this weekend, I audibly cheered. (My pancreas may have wept a little).
If you haven’t been to Curio Confections, you need to go. Now. If you have gone, you already know you need to go back. But in case you didn’t know about the special opening celebrations they are hosting this weekend, here are some more reasons to head down this Saturday, July 24th with FREE COOKIES!
