The random question I drew out of my card deck today was: What is your favorite dessert?
Spoiler alert: It’s not ice cream. I am honestly not much of a sweets person at all. I just don’t have a sweet tooth. If I pick something to snack on it’s almost always salty or even sour. I love food and I love to try new things, but sweets are on the bottom of my favorites list.
I think my favorite dessert would be a beautiful, ripe, fresh peach. All by itself. I know. It’s weird.
If I am in a dessert mood, I always go for the option with fruit. I really don’t like frosting at all and you can keep the chocolate caramel overload. If I were to pick a more traditional kind of dessert, then something baked with fruit like plums or cherries, or key lime pie, or coffee ice cream.
The embroidered ice cream cones are from my Skillshare class: Sewing Sweet Treats. Those are much more my kind of treat.
My best birthday was eating a perfectly ripe apricot and peach from the farmers market in Lubbock, TX when Natalie was in the hospital. I LOVE apricots, but the ones shipped to MN have no flavor. Last year when I was going to do road trip summer, I planned to go to CA when the apricots and peaches were ripe. I didn’t make it last summer, but one day it will happen.
