Do you have a sweet tooth, Ruth or do you enjoy more savory or salty things?
Hannah wrote: "Do you have a sweet tooth, Ruth or do you enjoy more savory or salty things?"I do have a sweet tooth- but
not for candy. Chocolate is a
good group- vegetable.
I also have a hankering for
savory.
Salty, not really.
How about you?
OOOO, yes!! Chocolate's been proven to have lots of health benefits!! Every once in a while we get a Sipsby tea subscription box. This month they gave us a loose leaf tea where the only ingredient was chocolate!Salty dark chocolate is my favorite!
Are you a pumpkin spice sort of gal? You seem like the person who would like warm spices.

Now Dorry, I'm gonna ask you the same thing. Do you like sweets or are you more of a savory or salty type person?
Hannah wrote: "OOOO, yes!! Chocolate's been proven to have lots of health benefits!! Every once in a while we get a Sipsby tea subscription box. This month they gave us a loose leaf tea where the only ingredient ..."Yes, I do like warm spices.
I enjoyed pumpkin spice sooo
that I grew tired of it.
That was several years ago.
For Christmas, we had a spice
cake with white chocolate
frosting. Oh my heavenly
Bliss!
DDOORROOTTHHYY!!!!!!!!!! 😩

There's just something comforting about warm spices, isn't there?

Emma wrote: "WAKE UP!!! PLEEAASSEE! I WANT TO KNOW THE ANSWER!!! 😓"Ah, well, I guess she's going to keep you in suspense until morning. I asked her to do the honors since I announced the question, so I won't deprive her of that now. You'll just have to suffer. 😉
