New Year dinners

Don't think I've ever had one of those

Now those i'll eat Deb. ^_^

Devil Dogs! those things sucked up all the spit and each time eating was a risk of suffocation! cheap thrills!

Never liked sweet things....I was addicted to potato chips...wait...did I type was? Oh, well! Mac & cheese for tonight with stewed tomatoes....

sweet and salty all mixed together is the best Ike and Mike's sweet and salty popcorn......wow.......

Just put a big spoon of ice cream on any Hostess/Drake's/Little Suzee....

Nirvana...

Chocolate covered potato chips :-)

my weakness...chocolate covered peanuts. My belly can no longer handle them so now it's M & M's. ^_^

Ohhh..... STOP !!! Potato chips dipped in chocolate-heaven-nirvana.

I will cuddle up in a blanket with my food fantasies, thank-you-very-much.

(And weep quietly.)

Jen Tatykake was bought by a Georgia company for 34 mil last year. They kept the Philly based factory open so no one last their jobs, Hopefully that will continue.

Out to eat tonight with friends!

I made little rib eye steaks and angel hair pasta with a jarred roasted garlic Parmesan sauce.

Menu du noir:
French Chicken Thighs in Cilantro Sauce (Thank you, Jacques Pepin!)
Scalloped potatoes
Broccoli florets
Chocolate-Oatmeal cookies for dessert.
(and...ahem...they all became ready at the same time -- not always so when I cook!)

Cilantro sauce sounds good

Good job Don! I still have not mastered that feat


mmmmm Devil Dogs.....absolute fav

but my guilty pleasure is ice cream, I will NEVER turn it down....so glad to have 2 awesome ice cream stores near us that have homemade ice cream, one is closed for the season the other open year round and is a college kid hang out but they have their own dairy and you can go get fresh milk there and they sell the pints buy 2 get 1 free

It's never too cold to eat ice cream!

Top quality ice cream = nectar of the gods

Agreed....that's one sweet thing I like....

You need to taste Onewish's Humming Bird Cake!!

Nothing like home made baked goods(of course) Lady in my church makes this AWESOME peanut butter and jelly cake...even made it gluten free once for our Pastor and me!!!! sooooooo good!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not a big fan of cake...I do have a recipe for a Brazilian chocolate cake I like because it's not too sweet....

Not a fan of cake!!!!????What!!!????

I much prefer pies and pastries.

I like unfrosted cake

Why bother?!! ^_^

I don't like anything that is sickening sweet like Shoo Fly Pie most tiramisu is to sweet for me except this one cake that a lady from church brought to our Christmas brunch, it was a tiramisu cake from Giant Food Stores...man was that good!!! I only had a itty bitty bit cause of the gluten but WOW

I like carrot cake.

Cinnamon coffee cake
And cheese cake

And jelly donuts --but I haven't had a decent honest to goodness jelly donut since ........well when I'd walk home from church on Sundays back in Brooklyn......

I'd use the $ mom gave me for the church basket.........got that jelly donut and a comic book. Archie or Superman........then I'd confess it the next week. Them were the days!

there is an Italian bakery about 1/2 hour from here they have THE BEST cheese cake, we brought it to a party and it went really fast then our friend said to us "waiting for everyone to leave so I can lick the plate"

Oh yes - I do love a good cheesecake. Must be creamy, not heavy. Like coffee cake too.

Pecan pie is very sweet due to all the corn syrup, but I can't resist a tiny slice whenever the oportunity arises.

I made a chocolate pecan pie and made a corn syrup substitute so it was more all natural....came out really good

Torture me whydontcha ;)

Jen, are you the one that brought that unbelievable tray of home made cookies to one of the swaps that I hosted. There's always so much going on that I can't keep track of everything that happens on that day. I know you brought something that everyone was raving about.

I saw on a TV reality show (chef Roble ??) a pecan pie that was 1/2 sweet potato (bottom) and the top was either pecan or choco pecan. sounded delicious.

No, none of those sweets have tempted me...however, I'm going out to lunch with some friends....so, maybe dessert today!

robin,
maybe you are the 'bread' type
banana bread
zuccini bread
date nut bread
pumpkin bread

not a 'sweet' in a traditional sense -- but a dessert for sure.

Rosie, you're right....banana bread is a favorite...I did have dessert today with lunch....but it was ice cream with chocolate sauce....better than the lunch I had!

Ice cream always manages to makebthings better

Several bakeries around Boston area sell a Ricotta cheesecake pie. You have to tell them if you want powdered sugar on top or not. It's always a hit. Fortunately for us, the bakeries that have EVERYTHING are in the South End. Not having it around is the best defense.
