  1. Looks yummy!!! I’d love with vanilla ice cream. Perfect for this time of year. Did Nora enjoy?

    1. She did. Could barely eat her dinner she was so excited about desert. It was probably good that we took it to my friend that just had the baby, because I might have eaten it all that first night!
