By the time we met, in 1974, she was more grandmotherly, a tough shell with a warmth and devotion bubbling beneath. She was suffering quietly from a broken heart--the death of my grandfather 10 years earlier--listening to classical music on the radio and dunking Stella D'oros in Taster's Choice coffee.
I respect this--the choice to hunker down with sweets and pack it on; after all, at age 70 have we not earned it? But I will not be getting fat on Stella D'oros. At a staff meeting the other day, my bosses plied us with various croissants from my local fave Almondine bakery. As I nibbled on a chocolate almond one, I thought: this is what I'd like to get fat on.

This is great, Jerusha. You're a great writer! I want to get fat on pie -- all kinds of pie, but particularly meringue/cream pies. Throw in some fried chicken and devilled eggs if we're in a hurry! YUM!
You can never start eating anything Stella Doro...I have a theory that they put drugs in them like coke used to in the 1800's. The one time I bought a bag of stella doro "biscotti" I are the whole thing. They aren't good, so it must be drugs!
