What's for dessert?

Tiramisu! Cute, huh? Don't know how it taste yet.

Cute, yes.
Tiramisu? No.

Just.... close your eyes and think of Italy :)

i just had the most delish cherry streudel evah

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..

Cherry struedel.

My grand-daughter (8 yrs) checked a cook book out of the school library,
and spent yesterday going thru their cupboards looking ingredients so she could "cook" something.

Mom took her shopping today, and Abby spent the afternoon cutting, mixing
and melting, hand-dipping each piece of fruit all by herself.
She called and was so excited it was hard to understand anything she said.

I've never seen tiramisu look like that. How was it?

Of course you've never seen it like that; it was Taiwanese made. :lol: What I meant is that the Chinese will reinvent anything they know. :p: Just don't try the cheese cake. I didn't like it. :headshake I meant to take a pix of a slice but forgot, and we ate the whole thing. :p: It tasted okay, but I didn't love it. They had other flavors that I thought was really yummy.

Oh yeah, a Korean bakery made tiramisu also. Not so great.

Ahh ok, well that explains it. I'm Italian and I was like...:eyebrow:. Looks good though.

fruit for dessert :D

What kind of fucking alien is that egg going to hatch into? That may cause more nightmares that the needle into eyeball iotd!

That looks like Durian, no problem with your eyeball but hell on your nose.:whofart:

EDIT: Nope, it's Rambutan.

I have some Durian chips in the cupboard.
They taste very creamy.

The fruit inside looks a little like lychee.

Lychees are the fruit of teh debbil. Jus' sayin'.

I like 'em ;p

I likethem fresh, but I prefer tinned lychees. They're very much a childhood taste for me.

I've had lychee in Vietnamese restaurants, although I remember them being called "long-ahn," or is that a different fruit?

I adore lychees, but they are SO expensive.
One of my colleagues started buying them by the box from a local market trader, but by the time payday came around they were out of season.
I will have to get in with her next year - we could get a better price for 2 boxes a week.

I can eat them until I make myself unwell (not that that is an aim!) and there are very few fruits I can say that about.

They just need googly eyes.

But won't those pass through intact? Like sweetcorn?
Could give me a bit of a wobble if I forget.

They're too cute to eat.

Lychee and longans are two different fruits although they may seem similar without their skins. I personally like longans better. But heck, they're both expensive. I'll eat whatever someone gives me. :D Anyways, I left some rambutans left for my sister, and she forgot to eat them. She just dragged them out of the fridge. They look even scarier now, so I thought I'd share with y'all. :lol: By the way, these fruits taste fine from the can if y'all want to see how they taste like. I buy the can ones to make fruit cocktails. Very yummy. :)

And this is how longans look like.
