And, presto, all of a sudden there was the Isle of Desserts high and dry surrounded by an ocean of oozy mud while the river, narrowed to a mere brook, rushed in its channel some fifty feet distant. And there you are. At least, I suppose that is why he winked. You could not have reached the Isle of Desserts with a boat or with snow-shoes or with stilts or with anything except an airplane.
And then she saw those recent months, when her mother had bloomed with happiness; she saw her struggling with her beloved desserts, cheerfully unconscious of any failure in them; she saw her, living like a lady, as she had said, with every anxiety kept from her. There had been times when her thin face had been almost illuminated with her new content and satisfaction.
The colonic waste in vegetarians is not so toxic. Desserts should be used sparingly and seldom. They are not a necessity, but a habit, and if they are consumed daily they are a bad habit. For the sake of the unborn child, avoid all stimulants and narcotics. Alcoholics and coffee should not be used. And it is best to avoid strong spices and rich gravies.
She has a sweet tooth, you know, and it's so hard for her not to make desserts." "Pish! Tush! I don't reckon her tooth's any sweeter than mine. I've a powerful taste for trash myself, and always had since the time I overate ripe honey-shucks when I was six months old; but the taste don't make me throw away good money.

"At 1.30 we stopped again for feed and water, and when we went on our mess sat down to the following lunch, which I think does credit to our catering powers. R.B.S. Emergency Soup. Cold Roast Fowl, with Stuffing. Bully Beef, with Mustard. Whiskied Biscuits. Desserts Variés. Chocolate. Ginger. Bonbons. Oranges. German Beer. Cigars. Cigarettes.
The lunches here are beginning to go right against me! That sago pudding today and Gallup knowing how I hate starchy desserts!" "For the sake of the cause, Miss Emelene, too!" "Gallup would have to hold our rooms at half rate." "Of course, Mrs. Smith. I'll arrange all that." "I I can't go over until evening, with three trunks to pack." "Just fine, Mrs. Smith.
This is why Clarence Colfax found himself that evening on a hospital steamer of the Sanitary Commission, bound north for St. Louis. Supper at Bellegarde was not the simple meal it had been for a year past at Colonel Carvel's house in town. Mrs. Colfax was proud of her table, proud of her fried chickens and corn fritters and her desserts.
Care should be exercised in planning meals in which cheese is employed as a substitute for meat. As cheese dishes are inclined to be somewhat "heavy," they should be offset by crisp, watery vegetables, water cress, celery, lettuce, fruit salads and light desserts, preferably fresh or cooked fruit. Another point, too, is to be considered.
Henceforth they should buy all their desserts of "Madame Millernine," and there was a spatter of French phrases all over the place. "It was a wonder!" they declared, "this idea of creating a little of Paris here in old Chicago. A touch of genius really just like that astonishing Milly Ridge to have thought of the one thing and the cakes were so good," etc., etc.
