Chuck, Tina and I just checked out a somewhat new coffee shop out in Victor called Cole & Parks.

The coffee was alright... but the real prize winner was their Dough Eggs. You get a clear egg container with your choice of 12 scoops of cookie dough. You take it home, you refridgerate, you have fresh baked cookies whenever you want. What a great idea. I liked the oatmeal butterscotch.

  2. Actually Cole & Parks has nothing to do with Montana Mills. The owner is a client of ours and did this on her own.

  4. Barry... yes.. I got confused...the newspaper article I quickly read hanging on the wall while I was there COMPARED the Cole and Parks owners to the Montana Mills owners. Thanks!

    "Gene and Suzy O’Donovan gave up successful careers in accounting nearly a decade ago to start Montana Mills Bread Co., which grew from a single-store operation in Pittsford into a chain that was acquired by Krispy Kreme Doughnuts Inc.

    Now a former Frontier Telephone executive and her husband are following a similar path with the upscale Cole & Parks Bakery Café & Coffee Co., which opened in Victor, Ontario County, last month."

  7. I'd rather eat the cookie dough instead of make the cookies. Have you seen the new Dairy Queen Blizzard with brownie batter and brownie bits in it? *drool*

  10. I have been reading your blog for a while now and enjoy it very much. Interestingly, my husband grew up in Rochester and his dad was a chemist for Kodak. Also, have an ex-boyfriend also from Rochester (whose dad was also a Kodak chemist). Your reference to the coffee shop in Pittsford made me click the link...voila, the coffee shop is less than a mile away from ex-boyfriend's current house, on the same road (Main Street Fishers). Freaky.
