Here are a few shots from this morning in the Back Bay. And, here's a link to our resource page on What You Need to Know in A Boston Snow Emergency. We have been updating that page as we recieve new information.
The wind freed most of the trees of their snow cover, but this little group was wearing the white.
Massachusetts Avenue looking south towards Commonwealth Avenue.
Massachusetts Avenue looking north to the Harvard (Mass Ave.) Bridge.
This car is ready to go…until the next plow passes.
But, lots of other cars are waiting to be freed.
This type of scene greeted many homeowners this mornng.
A rare evergreen in a Back Bay yard.

Like crocuses popping their heads though the snow, these sturdy survivers continue to expand their leaves as they spend the winter along a wall in a Back Bay front yard.

Of course, Flour Bakery + Cafe has sandwiches … I knew that! But after focusing on the bakery side for so long, I hadn’t … well … tried one. Alright, settle down, settle down!
In my defense, your honor, you should know that I’ve always been fascinated by bakeries. As a child I can remember opening the bakery shop door and being overwhelmed by an "aroma wall" of freshly baked bread. It was intoxicating! And, along with cases full of pastries and other goodies, it was an experience that has come to define “bakery” for me.
So, when Flour Back Bay opened last week, Penny, Poppy, and I walked over to check out the new location and treat ourselves to the Double Chocolate Cookies and a couple of hunks of the addictive Boston Cream Pie (with echoes of tiramisu).
Maybe it was because we were looking around at the new digs or that it was lunch time, but suddenly I noticed … sandwiches.
The Roasted Lamb (top photo) with tomato chutney, greens, goat cheese and, of course, bread! The combination was superb – highlighted by the thinly sliced morsels of tender meat.
We added the Roasted Chicken sandwich that featured avocado, greens, and jicama which added the right amount of moisture and crunch.
Okay, I’m convinced! Flour is more than an alluring bakery and I’m looking forward to tasting all of the sandwich offerings. The real challenge will be matching the pastry with each one. This could take awhile.
The newest location or Flour4 as it has been nicknamed is here:
