I have some friends who have an annual dessert party before the holidays really get into full throttle. A rivalry developed between the host and another guest for the best chocolate cake. It was clear who the winner was when I arrived - it wasn't me, of course. I tried concocting a lemon souffle one year and arrived at 10 PM! But not this year. I just brought an appetite and willing spirit. The offerings ranged from gingerbread, cheesecake, coconut macaroons, peanut butter cookies, drunken fruit compote to chocolate pudding and broccoli bars! Bravo Nadine and George for another successful evening.
