Just dessert

All celiacs have been disappointed when they encounter a restaurant or or office party or social gathering where there is absolutely NOTHING gluten-free to eat. On the flip side, we're also pleasantly surprised from time to time, and that's what happened this morning.

My daughter and I arrived at the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia about an hour before it opened, so we went across the street to Sister Cities Park. The Milk & Honey cafe had been recommended by academy staff for grabbing a coffee (for me) and a beverage for Bel. Unbeknownst to us, there were gluten-free cheesecake brownies for sale at the counter. (Happy dance!)




I hesitated briefly, due to the unnecessary calories and early hour, before going for it. It was for blog research, after all, but well worth the $3 price. Thick, rich and moist, it was delicious. Bel wasn't interested and requested fruit instead (smart girl), so I was left to finish the whole thing.

The coffee was tasty too!
