I need dessert after every meal. Like, even after salty snacks.
It's a problem. Because I want to be a Beach Babe..Not sure that's going to happen, but a girl can dream. I've been really good though lately, if you don't count the huge bowl of popcorn we had last night while watching The Hangover in Italian - dubbing still cracks me up - and the even huger bowl of cherries the day before. Cherries are good for you though right? Maybe not a pound by yourself, but hey, at least it wasn't a whole tray of pretzel brownies.
But this week I found out how to have my cake and it eat too - healthy banana splits! The exclamation point is important because they're so good! Creamy, crunchy, sweet and fun! Yay!
