Desserts




I love dessert. I say this again and again. All kinds of desserts: cakes and cookies and donuts and pies and ice cream and tortes and fruit and custards and … The list is never ending. There is not a dessert that I won't eat.

With liking so many desserts is, well, my waistline. I can eat way more desserts than my body is happy with. All in moderation is the name of the game. To that end, Husband keeps me in line and makes satisfying AND healthy* desserts.

* Healthy is no added additives or preservatives. There is fat and sugar in our desserts. We do not believe in low-fat additives of fakeness. Let's just be clear on that! :-)

So, Husband made pies. Strawberry during strawberry season which was late-June. And Blueberry during blueberry season which was July. Both were sweetened with agave nectar. Both had homemade pastry tops with organic butter and unbleached organic flour. The blueberry pie even had a touch of spelt flour tossed in.

Both pies were delicious and satisfying. Give me my desserts. Even when they are healthy options.
