Well, apparently I didn’t scratch the “cheesecake itch” the first time.
And, since I aim to please – I simply couldn’t leave it alone.
Things MUST be perfect in regards to the food coming out of my kitchen. Anything less is utterly unacceptable.
We asked for honest feedback: “It was a great dessert. So good! I loved it. But, I still feel like I need a cheesecake.”

She was kind, courteous, and never asked for anything else.

I chose to treat her once again.
I hope this scratches the itch, Laura. Otherwise, I’m always up for an excuse to create in the kitchen!
