cream

I can't fathom how hard it was to spend more than 30 seconds scraping away the cream filling without just giving up and eating the whole cookie in one bite. I don't have that kind of patience.

Panna cotta is like super rich, fancy grown up pudding and it is ridiculously delicious and versatile. I could eat panna cotta with every meal and not complain. Though with that much cream I would no doubt come to regret it. And oh the rainbow of possibility!

Swans are so graceful and elegant and pretty (from a distance, let's not talk about the up-close and personal). Pastry cream is possibly one of the most delicious inventions on the planet; you could top a pizza with it and I'd dive right in. I'd like to see these floating on a little stream of champagne and it would be a perfect tableau.

We've got a sort of fake Spring going on here in Seattle. But it's really still winter and really still cold and there really still aren't any strawberries to be had. Come on berry season!

It's been a long time since I had strawberry milk, and while I don't remember it with particular fondness, There is something appealing about a strawberry flavored cookie with a creamy sweet filling. I'd almost even prefer it if it was a little artificial tasting.

This looks like the ideal breakfast when I had one too many the night before and I refuse to get out of bed for another couple more hours. If my husband would humor me and bring me berries and cream I might even agree to empty the litter box!

Another step towards a life lived with nothing but Hello Kitty products everywhere.

I want to see the stack of heart shaped cream they cut out of each cookie. It's like sticky confetti! Mmmmmm I could go for a sleeve of Oreos about now.

We have several trays like this in my home. Trays that are PERFECT for a romantic breakfast in bed. Have I ever found a lovely romantic breakfast in my bed? No. I have not. Though there was that one time I was really sick and got soup in bed. I guess that counts.

I will never get tired of these amazing videos. All the desserts! Get in my mouth!

This looks so soft and pillowy I want to sleep on it. Of course whipped cream isn't the best thing ever for your hair, but once you wash it I bet all the fat will make your tresses pretty soft. To eat or sleep, eat or sleep... tough questions.

After a couple of these you'll be on a mad sugar high, face stained by sprinkles and drunk to boot! Just like being a kid again!

Well now I don't think that piggy is a very nice judgment! Enjoy your ice cream ring free of prejudice!
