Thanks for all your conversations, views comments, faves and watches! Hope I haven't missed anyone individually. I totally appreciate each and every one of you! If that's possible...hmmm I don't know...
Yesterday I posted one of the pics my daughter in law took while we were at my aunt's picking berries last summer! I know I've got some more from that day too but I can't seem to find them in this mess after the 5 floods and all. Just don't seem to have the wherewithall to start sorting it out AGAIN! Anyway, it was a great day - not too hot for berry picking and not raining which in and of itself is a miracle in the Lower Mainland of BC!
Then one of my watched friends - Andréia Solha
[link] (sorry I haven't figured out how to do all that fancy stuff here yet!) - check out her amazing site - mentioned raspberries again.
Then what do you know! I took out the last bag of frozen raspberries, nuked them for a minute, put on some milk, sugar and maple syrup (a Canadian speciality - lol!) and what a lovely desert! I highly recommend it!
Anyway, it made me feel quite a bit better than I did earlier today!
Yum, raspberries! My second favourite berry after blueberries!
What's yours? And what's your favourite reasonably low-cal desert?
(What the heck, we may as well have a conversation here!)
Hummm...that Canadian specialty you mentioned made me drool, could gladly include it into my eat anything diet!!
Oops, the Canadian specialty I mentioned meant just maple syrup! I just put it in quotes because though it's considered such a big deal here, I know it's made all over the place. I have great fondness for it, put it on a lot of things and will drink it from the bottle on occasion! But then I do that with sweetened condenced milk too! Lol! [I don't eat sugar directly on its own though!] Dang it's ridiculous that though it's made right here we have to pay $7-8 CDN for a 375 ml bottle. That's the reason why so many Canadians use fake maple syrup or some other dumb thing.
Maple cyrup with condensed milk?
Not maple syrup and condensed milk at the same time! but now that I think of it - that would be great on yogurt or something! I love that milk on strawberries as they do it in Japan! You should have seen the size of those strawbs - like a plum! And they tasted great too! Not fake at all!
I went to the library today and I had to stop for something to eat so I had pakoras and chutney! Yum! Then a bowl of sesame seeds with soy sauce! Yesterday, I went to to get some food and to Flight Centre and I had to get something too! I had a large chicken donaire with tzadziki and hot saice! Yum! How about you?
This evening for dessert I'm having the same as yesterday, small yellow guavas with frozen blueberries, milk and white death! I'm mean white sugar. Yum!
Why is it that nobody discovered a decent replacement for white death?. Most are pathetic imitations!
I like brown death too!
Nice you are having a heat wave. It's stunningly cold here for Vancouver.
