So there's nothing really to 'report' on as it were...I'm part-way into the semester, again, and like some of my classes and can't stand others...Who really keeps up with the readings?? I mean, it's boring as all get out, and when you feel like the backside of a horse class readings are the last thing on your list...Or at least their the last things on my list. Whichever works for you.
Tonight I'm going to make Tiramisu, the gluten free version, and I am going to devour it like there's no tomorrow...Or at least like if I don't then my siblings and my roommate, the cookie monster (no joke), will eat it all first. Which is an entirely likely scenario let me tell you!!
Have I mentioned that I love Tiramisu?? No, well then let me take this moment to inform you of the wonders of this particular Italian cake. It's soft, moist, and creamy. It melts in your mouth and then leaves you with the delightful flavor of espresso afterwords. It's cheesy and, in my opinion this is the best part, it isn't incredibly sweet. The sweetness of the cake doesn't overwhelm you. It's a muted flavor that's kind of like oh, this is a custard-ish dish covered in cocoa and oh yeah, it's sweet too. Not that cloyingly annoying crap that is so sweet you can feel you teeth rotting. Yuck!! Ik! No, *shakes head* not like that. The Italians like to be subtle in their flavors, unless it's tomato (lol), and so the sugar content of this is a companion to the many flavors of the dish, not the main attraction. It is a light desert that is a wonderful way to finish (any) meal...At least in my opinion, which is why I'm going to make it! Mwahahahaha!!!!!!
Oh yeah, I went there...Look at me now!
