    Brownie sundae.

    Preferably with an ice cream type such as Reese's Peanut Butter Cup.

    Or an ice cream type that features lots of chocolate and something else interesting (almonds, etc.) and then hot peanut butter topping.

    Ideally from Lizzie's in Waltham, MA.

    Know of a good place to get baklava? I can't seem to find any good baklava that isn't runny and soggy.

    The Greek Bakeries on West Broadway are best. http://www.foodvancouver.com/restaur...restaurant=228

    Greek fest is another good bet. I get my fix at my local Greek restaurant... his mama makes it!

    The Drive (Commercial Drive) is the best for Gelato... not only good ice-cream but you get compliments from both the Italians and the lesbians when you walk down the street! Nothing like "the Drive" to lift your spirits eh?

    Oh especially if there's a soccer game on! I love the energy.... sigh... I miss my old neighbourhood sometimes.

    I like cheesecake and blonde brownies and such, but my favorite....

    Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Mint Cookie, out of the pint-tub, with plastic spoons and three good friends and a spot on the grass under senior row. It doesn't get much better than a spring day at Bryn Mawr with some of my favorite people. *sigh* I miss that.

    Second vote for the cheesecake! It's best with some kind of fruit topping, or tons o' chocolate/carmel/ooey gooey yuminess on top.

    The strawberry sundaes you can get from my work. Especially when you can sweet-talk the adorable female (usually) who makes it for you. Mmmmm, half a pound of strawberries, vanilla ice-cream, strawberry sauce, marshmallows, warm chocolate brownies and maltesers (the last three only if the boss ain't there, though).....<drools>

    EDIT: Not that I would even contemplate trying to sweet talk anyone for my own benefit.

    Erm, it's a bit difficult to describe. A round malt honeycomb crunchy bit, covered in cholcolate is as close as I can get to a proper description.You guys probably have them, but with a different name.

    I don't get it. Why have three friends when you only have the single-serving size of B&J (despite what the packaging might claim)? :)

    Mmmm, Half-Baked, Phish Food, or Chocolate Fudge Brownie.

    A tub of Ben & Jerry's "Chubby Hubby"* and a cup of coffee...


    ...or a simple creme brulee with a cordial glass of Bailey's and Godiva chocolate liqueur (nice floating drink).

    Just because you have the right, that doesn't mean it is right.
