Cheese, beautiful cheese, This is the most spectacular, mouth watering dessert my mouth has experienced in a long while. Baked sweet Ricotta pudding with a dark chocolate sauce and baked raspberries. My partner found the recipe in July's gourmet magazine and added his twist. In the Gourmet mag recipe the pudding is served with roasted grapes.

Knowing my love of all things chocolate he created his own topping using shaved dark chocolate and raspberries he baked in butter, sugar and [...]

After the programs, we all headed over to Courthouse Coffee and joined T [...]

While waiting for our order at this very busy coffee house, chatted with AJ columnist Susan Rushton whom Bruce brought up to s [...]
