My day started off at the social-site-with-faces, where a friend posted a status about loving all her friends. She is a sweet woman, and a wonderful cook, and I miss her SO MUCH because she had a catering business here, but she went and moved to Virginia leaving me prostrate with grief and no, I don’t mean like the male gland, ok?? Anyway, she posted that and I felt obliged to respond:
Friend: I LOVE YOU ALL!!! โฅ
Me: I โฅ you so much that when I see a tres leches cake, I yell at it and call it an impostor.
Friend: HAHAHAAA! Lord, how I miss you!!!!! โฅ
Me: I think I am banned from several bakeries, too.
So now I want a slice or five of tres leches cake, and she made the best, and I am grieving because FINALLY I have an appetite and I can’t have the bestest cake evah.
Look at it. Just look at it!!! I think I gained two pounds and a cavity just looking. Oh, how I miss you, my friend.
And you too, Narima ๐

The ONLY dessert I would pass tres leches for is creme brulee. And sometimes it’s a toss-up ๐

A good creme brรปlรฉe can be had in many places…a good tres leches cake is harder to find (at least in my neighborhood).

WTFITS????
Don’t you people remember the warm, wholesome goodness of a chocolate brownie with chocolate chips and ice cream with a spritz of whipped cream on top?
It’s like I don’t even know you people!
