The Wembly


I came up with a quick, delicious and maybe even a little healthy (although not too much) dessert tonight, which I would like to call a Wembly (my Friday night dining club knows this etymology!):

In a small bowl pour in half of a single serving cup of organic apple sauce. Then, a single layer of pralines. Next, pour the rest of the apple sauce over the pralines. Top off with granola (I absolutely prefer Kashi Mountain Medley Granola Cereal) and spread on a thin layer of cream cheese fruit dip. Crumble over a little bit of lemon short bread cookie and there you go! It's a very flavorful dessert with many fun layers of taste.

Tommie & Jasper's Small Screen Debut!

I rented The Ultimate DVD Doggie Sitter from Netflix last week to see if my dogs, Tommie & Jasper would have any reaction. The results were better than expected! The video is full of squeaky toy sounds, barking and music. They were definitely drawn to the TV by the squeaking sounds. They settled in front of the TV and got themselves comfortable, even though their bed and designated couch were only a few feet away. Tommie started cleaning Jasper's ears and eyes, as he usually does. This time, however, he cleaned Jasper to appropriately-themed music from the DVD, and I captured the event on my cell phone's video camera--enjoy the clip!

Nacho à la Esquimaux

Click for a close-up!

Here's a fun way to enjoy ice cream with your fingers! Nacho à la Esquimaux is simply your favorite flavours of ice cream on top of Cinnamon Sun Chips smothered with fudge or butterscotch sauce. This sweet variety of Sun Chip gives you a tangibly decadent dessert! As pictured, I've used Hershey's Double Chocolate Sundae Syrup and Hard Shell toppings, along with pralines, sprinkles and reduced fat whipped cream...topped off with a maraschino cherry! Deep deep down in the center is the secret ingredient that makes this dessert extra enjoyable, sweet and special. Of course, we must all find our own secret ingredient :-)
