I will admit to one dessert after one specific meal.
Occasionlly, I'll make a "breakfast for dinner" meal.

It's always a baked potato, 3 fried eggs over easy and still juicy and two
pieces of buttered toast. I'll add some sausage links if I have them. If I'm
really in a cooking mood, I'll cook a stack of thin pancakes too. (All of
that is the ultimate dish). Even if I skip the pancakes, I'll put a little
bit of maple syrup next to the sausage links.

Anyway, of my 2 pieces of buttered toast, I cut them all into quarters. Two
quarters, I will spread some grape or strawberry jam on them. Once I eat
the rest, this tiny sweet jam snack really does seem to finish off the meal
in a good way. This is the only time I eat dessert.
