Meredith, no bread? I can't live without bread. Gotta have my bread.

Orchid, no scones or biscuits? Ah! I love them both.

My biggest weakness is bread. I could live on it. Couldn't do the low carb diet everyone was on.



Well, Laurel, I never was really into biscuits...partially because I never made them and also find them abit heavy.

I like certain types of scones...if they have less butter/shortening or whatever less "ingredients" that makes some scones heavy in texture and taste. There's a lovely recipe...I made several times that used yogurt, orange juice/peel and candied ginger on top.

I actually only like desserts with abit of butter not lots of butter...tastes too heavy for my palate. Remember I was raised on Asian food for the lst 20 yrs. of life...so my dislike for heavy buttery or super cheesy recipes, is not surprising.

I used to like cheesecakes but no longer like alot of them unless they have a more "sophisticated" light texture. Mousse-like cakes I love and creme brulees, yes!
