1. I hate flan and love my job.
Effectively, I have a job NOT eating flan, which is pretty much your job too.

9. Baklava...drool. And a baklava story.
We had a kid staying with us for several months who had not had much exposure to many ethnic foods at all.

As a VERY special treat, all the kids got a piece of baklava in their lunch.

This precious child came back and pronounced that there had been a NAIL in her dessert.

"A nail?" we asked.

"Well, a small nail. More like a tack really. Here, I saved it. It's funny looking."

(Turned out it was a clove.)

14. wrong there: Tiramisu is the God Overlord of all desserts, Flan is second followed by
just about anything chocolate. Baklava makes my teeth hurt

17. And then there's cannoli. So good it's like..."Leave the gun. Take the Cannoli."
Obscure Godfather quote.

6. My friend Margarita makes the best flan - creamy and smooth, not at all like the
JellO-like flan that you buy in stores. And she makes 2 kinds, one regular and one coffee-flavored.
