Rhubarb Dessert

by sugargeek on September 7, 2009

When I was a kid, we had lots of rhubarb around the house. I don’t know whether it was planted there purposely, or whether it was just a weed. Being resourceful and sort of hippy-ish, my parents would gather it and cook it into foods. Let me tell you, you have to add a lot of sugar and stuff to make rhubarb really taste good. We had rhubarb tapioca, rhubarb pie, and rhubarb cobbler, to name a few. You have to enjoy a tart flavor to eat a lot of rhubarb.

Here is a beautiful rhubarb dessert that certainly looks sweet! Do you like rhubarb?

August 15 is National Creamsicle Day, and to celebrate the refreshing vanilla-orange frozen taste sensation, here’s a cool photo of an ice cream cup. Makes me want to grab a spoon!

Dove Chocolate (and free chocolate Fridays!)

by sugargeek on July 10, 2009

Everybody knows I love chocolate, and one of my favorite flavor combinations is chocolate with peanut butter. Recently, in a moment of weakness, I grabbed a bag of these Dove Promises. They are silky chocolate, filled with creamy and slightly salty peanut butter (smooth, not grainy). All I can say is YUM!!! I managed to stop my enjoyment long enough to snap a photo mid-munch. You’re welcome. :-)
