True to my word, I have been keeping my resolution for this year, going extremely well. I have managed to really ace it, even if I say so myself.  Berries are the bane of my house and irrespective of whatever season it is, they refuse to hear out my excuse of not buying berries out of season. So - I am stuck with berries for sure! Apart from that, there is a bit of fight going on with my use of unrefined sugar. Since I am still in the stage of experimenting, I do not have the formula worked out pat. Until then, I am sure of the revolt. The little one is surprisingly less fussy than the grown up dude - the husband!

But of course, I am going to keep trying. Among the various experiments, this one was a huge success. So much so that, for a non-dessert eating family, this cheesecake almost got over, the same day I made it (in fact less than 2 hours). Only one slice was left, that the cook (err..that's me, in case you dint get it!) got to enjoy the next day in peace. We are not a cheesecake family (yeah - the rare breed! I know!) and the ones I have made have been strictly for friends. The Cheesecake icecream was a different story altogether. Anyways, this one found love from us, from the first bite.  The first wary spoon was soon followed by gluttony and satisfied smiles. I have no reason to complain.
