Imagine that you’ve decided to have a totally high fat “decadent” dessert buffet without any health constraints..what would you have? I’ve been presented with this scenario as “prep” for a radiological gall bladder scan- given a “script” for a decadent dessert sesssion- or pizza, etc. bet 10-11PM Sunday night. Having had some symptoms, and discovered that I’m housing small multiple gall stones (Steve hubby is calling me Eileen & the family stones”) my MD was a tinsy reassuring by giving me stats re the large # of women over 45 with this condition doing well..
Back to the desserts. I’ve decided that whipped creme is my fav-with almost anything – strawberries, or solo. Topping a warm chocolate brownie and rice pudding mmm! And of course there’s all the yummy Ben & Jerry’s & Hagen Daz.. and then Steve reminded me about connoles and chocolate creme pie, cocnut custard pie, flan…
What are your dessert fantasies?
I love fruit pies especially ones that use almond paste in the crust. There is a bakery in Roslyn on Long Island that makes them; my favorite is plum and peach. There is also a bakery in Rockville Centre that makes pistachio whipped cream tarts and other outrageous desserts; it is Roe’s Casa Dolce. I do not like ice cream or anything with dairy but there are some amazing non-dairy substitutes used as the base including coconut, rice and cashews. I am not big on the soy based stuff. My favorite is ‘Organic Nectars’ raw agave gelato, a dream for someone like me who has sworn off sugar, dairy and white flour! My gall bladder is much happier that way. Good luck with you stones!
yum! Is it Dianna’s?
I heard that abstinence is the safest way to go…not working for me…Tiramisu is truly my best pick-me-up:), but I love dark chocolate and Carvel’s soft chocolate icecream on a cone- just like a kid. Did you know that licking an icecream cone can be an effective antidepressant?
XXs,

i luv that too 🙂
