Getting the Last Word

Seafood is also low in calories, and I'm going to allow myself more than a nibble. I'm going to enjoy an entire dinner.


Something fishy seems to be going on in here.

As all of this is virtual food, count me in for a large helping please! No calories - mmm, delicious!

You'll eat your hollow calories and enjoy them young lady! You can fret about the extra weight next year.

Now where are my chocolate covered licorice medallions?

You can have my share of chocolate covered liquorice/licorice medallions - ugh!

Why thank you! That's very kind of you.
Can I offer you some blueberry crumble as a gesture of appreciation?

I'll accept the blueberries, thank you, but you may keep the crumble!

Mmm...crumble....bliss...

I prefer savoury items - don't have a sweet tooth.

That makes one of us. I am in danger around sweets (or rather they are in danger).

Have you thought of joining Chocaholics Anonymous?

I'm not a big sugar consumer, largely indifferent to candy. Every once in a while, I crave dark chocolate, but it has to be the good stuff, if it's waxy forget it. A friend brought back Belgian chocolates once, they were Devine. My other fav is toffee. It's rich, at least to me, so a couple pieces and I'm done.

But Sturgis, your blueberry crumble sounds super dooper to me, my taste in desserts tends to crumb cake, rice or bread pudding, and creme brûlée. I almost forgot, there is a German cheese cake (my grandmother used to call shmear case, I don't think it's appropriate German) but I think it's wonderful whatever you call it.

Ah, cheese cake - now that is something I do like! Ages since I had any - my mouth is watering at the thought of it.

Been a while (at least a few months) since I last consumed a cheesecake.

Don't tempt me - I could eat one right now!

I eat them far too fast. They supposedly are 8-10 servings I can never seem to manage more than 4. (perhaps I need to slice them thinner?)

Oh no! One tiny sliver of cheesecake is more than enough for me - or I'd suffer from a sugar rush!!!

I did that the other night. Apparently I need to reevaluate my idea of a 'serving' of certain things. (however chocolate has an addictive nature to it which makes it difficult to stop eating)

If I was addicted to anything edible it would be salt!

Never got into salt. Garlic is an entirely different matter (as are chocolate and about 100 other items).

At any rate, I need to depart and throw together something which will resemble dinner.

Back later...

Mmmm - garlic - love it.

Nearly 10pm here - see you tomorrow!
