Blueberry cobbler

Dutch Baby

flapjacks

gingersnap pie crust for gelato icecream pie

ice milk (Anyone remember that? Less sweet and I think less fat than ice cream in the 50's).

Edit: Just looked it up. Apparently it was less fat but could have same sugar.

Kings cake (to celebrate three kings day)

marshmallows, milk shake

Badger, I just looked it up - less fat but same sugar. Apparenly now sold as low-fat ice cream. But now I don't like so much sugar. Sice you're in WI, do you remember when the dairy industry insisted that margarin could not be sold with color added to imitate real butter? It came in a plastic pouch with a food color pellet to mix in. Kids loved squishing it around.

oatmeal cookies, Oreos

Quince and Apple Pudding

Badger, maybe she associated it with wartime deprivations and rationing. I think It was a defensive measure by the dairy industry to stifle competition. Yellow margarin was always available to us just over the border in Illinois (much later than wartime of course).

Whoopie pies

Badger, this cracks me up. I think I'll run out and find some Irish butter. Margarine was always allowed as long as it was white, which is pretty disgustinging. I haven't been back in years except for a highscool reunion and to show my kids. The countryside was soooo beautiful and lush and green!

Oops! I followed red velvet cake wit a w dessert. I just love that word "velvet". so here's a t word:

tiramisu

Sara, let me know how you like it. I haven't had Irish butter but can get delicious local product so why buy something imported from afar. 'Twould be like bringing coals to Newcastle.

It's funny how this game sticks in your mind. I was cooking supper and thought ooh for R-Rice Krispies treat!

OK we're on V - vanilla ice cream, vanilla ice milk ;-), vanilla cream pie
