Something Sweet

Could it be that I have actually blogged for a few days in a row (even if one of my posts was lacking and pathetic- thanks for pointing that fact out).  I told you that I would step up to the challenge.  So much goes on that it is hard to find the time.  I guess that things won't slow down until the summer, and no this is not me complaining!  I love the busy feeling.  I figured that I would let my inner fat girl come out and play- MISTAKE!  She can not be trusted!  I had an event yesterday and served some sweets!!! Once upon a time I did not have a sweet tooth.  I definitely have a sweet tooth now... I love chocolate and most desserts in general.  I am trying to exercise portion control... Here is a plate of the treats:
They are a few of my favorite treats at the J-O-B.  Our catering staff knows that I am a Foodie and usually know my favorite!  The fruit tart cups are the BEST!!!  The filling is sooo good and the crust is flaky!  The cookie is a coconut macaroon with raspberry filling!  It is great!!! Simply perfect! 

I was chatting with my wonderful older big headed brother this morning and he told me that he would be going to one of my favorite places- New Orleans!!!  As a foodie- New Orleans has some of the best cuisine around!  It makes the inner fat girl squeal with glee!!  I told my brother to catch a cab and go to Dooky Chase!  I found out about DC from a friend.  I knew that she was a beautiful Creole woman from NOLA and asked her for some suggestions!  This is one recommendation that I am so glad that I took.  The area is a little sketchy but the food more than make ups for it!  I was hoping to go to NOLA over the summer and eat again but someone, I won't name any names (ahem KMM!!!) wasn't able to attend, so the trip was postponed!

And because Tonight is the Season Premiere of Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice, I am thinking that maybe I should get into the kitchen and cook...  I will keep you posted!

Have a Yummy Day
