The past couple of months while on the road, I’ve done some damage to my digestive system. Meaning to say, that I’ve made bad choices – in terms of eating.

I grew up eating harissa and thought nothing of it. In fact, I hated the texture and taste. Until recently I am finding this grain sold in most grocery stores and on menus in restaurants.

Once in a while, I stop dead in my tracks over a dessert recipe. Now I am not one who eats much dessert but when I see one as delish as this recipe, I cut out a meal and simply indulge. 🙂 Not a good way to be you might say, but we are all entitled to a cheat day – in terms of food that is.
