I waited several whole days, I'll have you know! *grin* Okay, okay, so that might be because our DSL was down for several whole days, but still. ;)

I'm getting married myself next month; maybe we'll whip up some of these lovely concoctions to celebrate. Congratulations and great review--I like the little warning about how the recipes may not be so good for the waistline.
Alas...why aren't all the luscious things health food? :)

I simply *live* for your cookbook reviews! (Reply to this comment)

Only problem is...I'm trying to lose a little weight right now, and reading your dessert descriptions was almost torture. ;)

Congrats, Heather, on your wedding! Hope you and hubby have many more wonderful times cooking together....

A wonderful review, as always.

It's no wonder you get such bad cramps with all the saturated fat you eat~! The Omega 3's won't have a chance of helping you until you balance your intake of Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids (6's are vegetable oil and such based products) AND you cut out as much saturated fat as you can. I would advice you look for a healthier cookbook!

Thank you!

I'm sitting here listening to Waits' "Black Rider" and it's all your fault, you know. I'm addicted. ;)

What, you don't think I eat like this all the time, do you? :) I couldn't have lost 30 pounds eating fatty food all the time. I think I deserve to splurge for the wedding festivities! (Actually, I only regained 2 pounds, despite stuffed lobster and truffles...)

Sounds like some rich offerings! (Reply to this comment)

For the present (with swimsuit season approaching), I think I'll stick with frozen desserts from the grocery. I just don't need the temptation!

Congratulations on your new marriage!
