National Dessert Day

I don't know when it happened exactly. When dessert became the most important part of

the meal. But at one moment I was suddenly bored with a jar of peas, and wanted my Cheerios.

I'm sure it got to the point of me only getting the dessert if I finished my main meal. Which, if you think about it, is the point of dessert. A treat for finishing off flesh & vegetables. Congratulations, you've finished of the food your body needs, not kill your body with a dose of battery acid and sugar. It's life Ying  & Yang.

What is your favorite dessert? Pie? Cake? Cookies? Ice Cream?

If there was a gun to my head and I was forced to choose I would choose Cookies. I love me some cookies. My favorite is a cookie called Monster. It's a combination of Oatmeal, Peanut Butter, Chocolate Chips and M&Ms. It takes forever and a day to make them, but it's so worth it. I came to the conclusion one day, that it was just easier to to leave it as cookie dough. Throw a couple of spoonfuls in a microwave safe bowl and nuke it for a few minutes. I've made it a few times and brought them to work with me, and every time, people stopped liking me, and started loving my cookies.
