Yum... do you mean tiramisu... the Italian dessert? I love that stuff. When we were in Italy last spring I ate it almost everyday for two weeks! However it is difficult to find here in WI.
BTW, I did NOT stop at McDonalds today on my way to the grocery store to buy a pantry full of healthy food. I did NOT have french fries or a fried chicken sandwhich... just in case you heard that rumor.
Virginia, darling... stilton is cheese. You're not British, are you.
It's somewhat like blue cheese, but not quite so... you know... blue. It's a little milder. It's divine.
It IS difficult to find, but you must have it out there somewhere. But if you don't have it, don't fret. You easterners have the BEST life, and missing out on stilton is minor. Did you know that you live in heaven, you lucky girl you?
No, Den... red wine at 4:am would be just too much of a sleeper.
I just read all you confessions, felt hungry and ate a handful of Pringles! You guys are making my mouth water with all the talk of Bbq,Burger King, McD's, etc. Guess I better go chew on some celery! Yum?!

Ok so I did not eat Greek food yesterday for dinner (a yummy pita filled with chicken, onions, and a yougurt sauce & a side order of fries) nor did I eat 2 slices of Pizza Hut today along with 2 breadsticks. Nope, definately not me.
I went to a drive in on Sunday night and was parked next to a car full of gluttons. While watching the movies I saw these four people scarfing down cheeseburgers, popcorn, chips, cadbury's chocolate pumpkins, two bags of skinny chips, corn on the cob, diet colas and water. Every time there was an intermission they traipsed back to the concession stand. It was disgraceful!
I was so distracted but their consuming I almost forgot to watch the movies
Peanut butter Oreos??? Ohmigod...I hope they never come to my supermarket...of course I could NEVER eat such a delectable...um...disgusting food...but just might have to purchase them...for the kids, of course!
I must admit you got me stumped on the butter tarts, ellis...but they sound like something that I wouldn't dream of consuming! (much)
I can firmly say, however, that a deep fried pickle will never cross these lips!
I saw this chick, in Maine...she seemed to be in every restaurant we went to...she thought she was so smug, eating chowder all the time...I wanted to tell her, "Hey, fatty! There's enough butter and cream in those chowders to sink a battleship! So don't smirk cuz you're only having soup!"
Ruthless was seen in my kitchen snacking on dried cranberries and peanuts! She claims they were from the Health Food Store and therefore were OK! She is sooooo stupid!
I have been restricted to tea and toast diet for 2 days which seems harmless enough except for the fact that I am supposed to be low-carbing it grr
Ellis- that drive-in was in Port Elmsley(sp?). I was in Smith Falls on the wekend and we drove to the drive in to check it out and since they were playing 3 movies for $6.00 we decided to stay.
It was fun, felt like I was in High School again double dating with DH and our two friends (who are engaged to be married this fall).
Ate too much junk too!
Cadbury pumpkins...I guess they are a special thing that comes out only at Halloween. They are wrapped in pumpkin tinfoil and are about the size of those football shaped chocolates that come out at christmas and easter. They are chocolate and have whipped carmel cream filling inside. They are not bad but have an odd texture. Err...not that I have ever eaten one...
