I love dessert. I even love eating it at odd times. What is one of your favorite desserts?
Right now, I'm stuck in the thought of Spring/Summer. I'm hoping the nice weather sticks around. Right now, all I can think about is Strawberry Shortcake. I haven't had it in such a long time. And now the craving for it is so strong!

Believe it or not I am not a huge dessert fan.
I do like cakes sometimes, usually vanilla with chocolate frosting or something like thhat. I also really like chocolate covered strawberries. Yum! Oh I also really like chocolate covered oranges. Never thought I'd like those, but I so do now.

I love desserts.lol Chocolate covered strawberries are so yummy! I only like cake if I'm in the mood for it. I definitely prefer chocolate frosting to vanilla frosting.

I have many favorite desserts. I love creme brulee, brownies, peanut butter cookies, oatmeal cookies, ice cream sundaes, etc.. Right now I'm hungry for brownies so I'm thinking about making some.
