Dessert-Mania

This is the fourth month that I am sticking to my "two desserts per month" resolution. In previous months, I made some unwise dessert choices, such as something completely non-memorable at Red Robin and birthday cake from Costco.

For April, my goal was to choose two desserts that were A-plus quality. I succeeded.

DESSERT #1 - Early in the month, in Florida, with those crazy speech kidz - Chili's restaurant. Upon T-funny's recommendation, I ate a chocolate chip cookie bar (warm and mushy) with ice-cream, caramel syrup, and chocolate syrup. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

DESSERT #2 - Tonight, Traci and I were home with Jonas (Kevin was at a dance and Nick was sleeping at a friend's house). To try to convince him that spending a night with mom and dad was NOT the worst thing in the world, we gave Jonas some options to do something special with us, and he chose Coldstone Creamery. Going in, my mind-set was in the right place: Only get something if it is pretty much guaranteed to be absolutely fabulous. As I was looking at the choices of ice-cream, I pretty much decided that I would not order anything, until I saw it - a new flavor that I had never experienced in ice-cream, but one of my favorite foods in the world - cake batter ice-cream. Who knew it existed? I was not disappointed. It was better than I had hoped it would be.

Happy. Happy. Happy.
