• Oh baby! Vanilla and banana ice creams, softened and mixed with pecans. Sliced bananas, whipped cream, caramel sauce. At Mimi's Restaurant in Tucson today. Original size? Warning, may cause sudden rush to go out for dessert...

Bananas Foster

At lunch today in Tucson, I could not resist ordering dessert for a change... UPDATE JULY 2010 - Horror of horrors, I discovered that Mimi's Cafe has discontinued Bananas Foster pie from the dessert menu! I was so so sorry to learn this when I happily sat down at this same restaurat a month ago and was tryig to place an order for it. Let me tell you, the new dessert offerings are rather small and boring. Well rats, now I only have one reason to go to Mimi's Cafe now, and that is their fresh strawberry lemondade. I hope I have not jinxed that item from the menu offerings too.

    I will have to make a desktop out of this for fun once-in-a-while. This was very extraordinary - not heavy at all. I had to laugh - my friend also thought of the idea to take a photo before I sampled right when I did. But she said it first, and then we both reached for our cameras, ha ha!

    Thanks for your visit to my photos, and for asking about my new job. It's going OK, but nothing to write home about. I'm happy to have a job though, so I won't complain! :-)
    I'll be on vacation next week, and can't wait. Take care!!!
