I have been devouring fellow baker’s blogs, websites, cookbooks, and magazines searching for the perfect chocolate dessert to serve at tomorrow’s Valentine’s Dinner.

What a task this is! Dessert is the final impression. The last taste that these romantic diners will have in their mouths before they go home to do who knows what. :) It has to be rich, intense, memorable, beautiful, clean and worthy of being the conclusion to an amazing meal. Now do you understand why I am having such a hard time committing?

What a wonderful mess I am in. I love scheming over what to create and trying to visualize its final outcome. I am basking in this dilemma to be perfectly honest. I am reveling in the fact that I have a blank canvas that is eager to be filled with whatever I deem worthy.

One never knows where inspiration will strike. You must always keep your eyes open and mind alert – both of which are quite challenging when one is in her last trimester of her second pregnancy.

It’s getting late. Valentines Day is fast approaching and dessert still must be determined.

I will keep you posted.
