Jean in Newcastle Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I did the same! I thought "The Lion, the Witch and The Wardrobe" mentions Turkish Delight. . . Deserts - Hmmm. "One Day in the Desert" by Jean Craighead George. She also wrote "One day in the Arctic Tundra", "One day in the Tropical Rain Forest", "One day in the Woods", "One day in the Prairie" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Margo out of lurking Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Rats, I mis-read as I was skimming and thought this was going to be a lit thread about desSerts. Oh my gosh! I thought the EXACT same thing, except I didn't figure it out until I read and re-read your thread. And then I was thinking, I know BooKs, teA, and maybe other things, but what are desSerts? :lol::lol::lol: I either need to go to bed (but wait, there's Amazing Race tonight!) or drink a lot more coffee.
