I just made a new dessert = I am so happy!

I was sitting around having eaten leftover ratatouille,which incidently turned out marvelously (oh organic ingredients taste so good!), thanks Stephen, and was lamenting that we ate all the cookies and we have no butter for baking cakes or anything.

But we had those damn plums from last week's box which we have been avoiding by hiding in the vegetable drawer. And then it hit me: make a plum pie with out the crust! I added a bit of raspberry jam, a few strawberries, sprinkled with a brown sugar/olive butter/flour mixture, baked at 190 C for about 10 min: et viola:

It has all the good taste of a pie, without the fatty crust. Must make again!

Tonight I'm studying for the Driving Theory test which I'll be taking on Thursday...will she fail, or will she pass? Brrooomm, brroooom....

Elisabeth on the road? LOOK OUT, yo.

Also, plum surprise! Looks good.

I think I'll have chips for dinner, out of spite. You kids are too healthy these days, yo.

I'm faking the health thing. For lunch yesterday I had cheese slice sandwiches.

...And that extreme close up of the desert looks suspicously like something I left in Canary wharf the other day...

Honey---your puke was filled with baked beans and scrambled eggs, and was orange.

What a marvelous idea! Plum pie without the crust! Love it! Was it yummy?

Can't say I'm excited about you guys going to South Carolina, BTW! Sure, it's a great place (love it- been there for vacation many moons ago) but I was kinda sorta selfishly hoping you'd be able to attend our wedding! LOL I know, I know...he's your brother :) (Congrats, BTW to the bride and groom).

Stephen, is my blog really that boring? You haven't left any comments in ages ;p Anyhoooz, E, g'luck on the driving test! Freaks me out that you'll be driving on the other side of the road though! :) Luv ya both! heehee..me xoxo

Oy! It's not boring, it's just that i'm pretty stressed out re: work. I've been doing far too many shifts & it's been advised that I cut back a bit (which I am). Give me his weekend to chill out and I'll be on my game again.

PS - How irritating is it to read a blog about someone with everything going RIGHT in their life??? ;)

Hey :) Hope work's going okay now. Work stress sucks--which is why it's nice being your own boss ;p BTW, Tarah (remember Tarah and Dennis from our Liberal Arts program at Abbott?) was at my bridal shower in Toronto. She was asking how you're doing. She's half-way done her Ph.D now. Amazing where our paths lead us... *sigh* The John Abbott College days seem so far away...and we were so young! lol

Anyhoooz, let us know how E does on her driving theory test!

Oh! One more thing! E, I've found a product that is Vegetarian Society approved and carefully scrutinized for their impact on the environment. The company's name is Montagne Jeunesse and they've got some good stuff. Don't think they carry lip balms and cosmetics like that, but they do carry skin care, hair care, foot/leg care, body stuff and bath/shower stuff.

Holy Cow! I'd forgotten all about them. Glad to hear they're still together, little miss matchmaker. Alo glad to see that she continues to be absolutely way more smarter than me.
