I have a serious issue when it comes to cheesecake. When I see one, or more than one, I must eat them. It’s imperative. I’m exaggerating a bit about the urgency, but the craving can by quite persuasive. When I found myself standing face to face with Mr. Leslie’s Cheesecakes at Afterglow Market at Rotary Park in Lansing, MI, I knew I was about to overindulge.
Mr. Leslie is a kind, charming, gracious guy. His cheesecakes, though, are alluring, tempting, and quite provoking. Each flavor he pulled from his cooler – pink lemonade, cinnamon roll, strawberry shortcake, red velvet – seemed to be persuading me to buy them. So, I listened. And I did. Each one. Mr. Leslie kindly, charmingly, and graciously bagged them all. |THIS.
