We're having a potluck at work today, and so I would like to add one thing to my favorite desserts: Coconut cream pie! Oh and chocolate covered strawberries. I think I won't get on the scale tomorrow.

Oh yes! I, too, love cherries and bell peppers and brownies, Sami!

Julie, my dad once allegedly bought (or picked?) enough raspberries to fill the crisper drawer in the fridge so he would for once feel like he had as many as he wanted! Also, my grandfather (dad's dad) has a raspberry patch in his back yard that is huge and prolific. We have a photo of Emily holding a berry in each hand in the middle of the brambles.

Birgit, I adore sugar snap peas and mushrooms too. Didn't think of them when I posted. Goat cheese, fresh basil, and pine nuts sound scrumptious. Your animals are really cool choices...but....banana slugs??? Why?

[Birgit]

I just think they are so ugly they are cool ;-)
