Temple celebrates the crossroads of laminated pastry and dessert.Â

Trial and error led Christina Wood to an important conclusion: Cruffins need hats. Generally speaking, this novelty mashup of a croissant and a muffin lacks the gravitas inherent to other laminated-dough confections. But at Temple Pastries, Wood and her bakers coil finicky croissant dough around tiny columns of pecan paste. These muffin-shaped creations get baked, cooled, and topped with maple bavarois and finally a housemade coin of milk chocolate and chopped pecan. A weekend-only special, they taste like fancy teatime and maintain the decorum of a chess piece or behatted royal wedding guest.
it s not how we want it to end. thank you so much, christina wood of the california highway patrol. thank you for joining us. we ll go right now to the press conference and find out what we can officially right now from the san bernardino police officials, including the chief. it keeps being delayed. i keep thinking we re going into this, we re not. there you can see the cameras and the microphones are set there for all the various organizations who are covering this. of course, this is one of those stories that has grabbed the nation s attention. this is not a local story. it s become a pattern. mark? it s a pattern now. it s an absolute pattern and one that s been accelerating for reasons that are complicated, except the fact that congress refuses to do anything about it. here s a way how it s local. have you noticed the conservatives are all saying, we re going to pray for the victims. we re all going to pray for the victims. that s not really their role. step two after
and so, you know, it s part of their whole operation. like i say, terrorists in paris want to do it and even wants to film it with a cell phone, maybe for later propaganda, that s a little different twist on it, but they do want to see their work and the chaos they ve ro t wrought on people. we return right now to wait for the police update. right now we re joined on the phone by officer christina wood with the california highway patrol. give us a sense of the police action we re watching now on television. yes, thank you for having me. you know, first as part of the california highway patrol, we want to send our condolences and our heartfelt just, as you can tell, we re still active in this and still fluid and kind of all thinking in here. our hearts go out to the victims and their families, first and foremost. this is a very scary situation
