Half Italian, Half Polish

Just finished a delicious dinner at Buca di Beppo with the family and my darling fiance. We shared fried mozzarella, baked rigatoni, bread in olive oil, and tiramisu. It was soooooo amazingly delicious! I'm not usually a fan of Italian food...despite the fact that I'm half Italian myself...but this dinner just hit the spot.

In fact, I totally stuffed my face. I hate that expression...but this time, it's true! I was really hungry when we ordered and then that warm, gooey, cheesy, spicy smell just did me in...I must've eaten a pound of pasta just on my own!

I could never diet. I just love all the worst foods, the ones full of oil and starch and sugar! My roommates could tell you that I have a horrible weakness for candy...I've even been called a "hoarder"...which I think is unfair, since I only keep one bag of Tootsie Roll Pops hidden in the back of my desk drawer!

As far as sweet desserts are concerned, however, my very favourite is creme brulee. There just isn't anything better than that crisp, burnt crust of sugar that just disappears on your tongue...except maybe the creamy, thick, sweet custard underneath :)

Obviously I just had dinner. I can't get my mind off food...do you have a favourite meal or dessert???
