Lovely spam! Wonderful spam! (SHUT UP!)
Everytime mentions Spam I think of the Monty Python sketch. I should upload it. It's so very silly!

I wonder if you could replace the chocolate syrup with chocolate liqueur, AC? Not as much, of course....

I think I just might make one right now!
And I just did! It was quite good!
I improvised a smoothie. Here's what I did:
1/4 Cup Milk 1/2 Banana, Peeled (of course). 2 thick slices of cantalope, halved. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg Sugar to taste.
In a blender, combine all of the above until smooth. Serve in a tall glass.
Serves 1.
I should I give it a name? Any ideas?

ohhhhh.... chocolate fondue. I can have that with the right chocolate... Are strawberries still in season? I think so, but It's coming close to the end. I'd say by the end of the month.

All of those recipies sound amazingly good!
I've had a recent craving for some chocolate fondue. It's about time I got out the old pot again. Maybe when I have a friend over we'll splurge on some fruits and chocolate.

The best flavor of ice cream I've ever had was a cherry cheescake with cheesecake chunks I made on someone's challenge. I still have the recipe somewhere. I love Cherry Cheesecake, too, Arrianna! Any of the cheesecake flavors are the best. I'm also very fond of Pistacio Almond, French Vanilla and Strawberry. I'm more of a sherbert/sorbet/gellato person, though.
