Tabitha'a new favorite food

Friday night Nancy and I visited a new Italian restaurant that just
opened up near us. Very good food, and plenty of it. We brought a
couple pieces of tiramasu home with us for dessert. When we opened up
the tiramasu Tabitha of course joined us. It turns out we have now
discovered her favorite food.

Instead of taking dainty little tastes, that fluffy little tiny kitten
started inhaling the desert like she was a vacuum cleaner or
something. I really believe that she got more of my dessert than I
did! Once she finished off most of my dessert she went over to help
Nancy with hers. She got more of the dessert than either of us did.

Tabitha is the *only* kitten I've ever experienced that enjoys sweets.

Tygra has an unusual craving for molasses cookies and comes running whenever
she smells any in the house.

Actually, I always thought there was some chocolate in it... but I'm
not sure. If there is, though, it probably shouldn't be a kitty indulgence,
unfortunately! I can't stand almond paste or almond extract, so I am one
of those bizarre humans who does not like tiramisu, in spite of whatever
other wonderful things might be in it. I'm just not sure what those things
are.

This reminds me of a fabulous dessert I used to make. It's made with
pound cake, chocolate, espresso, and rum. You slice the pound cake and
soak each slice in the rum and espresso, then put the slices together
in a cake pan with something in between each slice (can't remember
what - something sweet and buttery, I'm sure ). Then you pour melted,
sweetened chocolate over the whole thing, and chill in the refrigerator
overnight. When it's ready, the chocolate covering has hardened and breaks
off into thin "plates" of chocolate. Inside it's a juicy mix of cake,
espresso and rum. If there's any interest, I'll go look for the recipe.

It's basically either cake or layers of lady-finger cookies, with almond
paste between the layers, and sprinkled lightly with chocolate powder.
It's often soaked in rum or brandy as well, but this restaurant doesn't
do that. Since chocolate isn't good for kitties I took the chocolate off
the top before I allowed Tabitha to help me.

Sounds delicious -- and fattening. I don't cook so just enjoy
thinking about it. Thanks. MLB

I had a cat that LOVED pastry. Anykind. Tiny Tabitha won't be very tiny if
she keeps eating Timirisu!

I've known a couple of cats who liked sweets. Tawny once ate an entire
frosted spice cake that my daughter had made with her little play baking
kit. It was about four or five inches in diameter, and about an inch
high. When Rudy was a kitten, he almost followed a Hostess Ding Dong
down my daughter's throat.
