do you always have a desert (pudding) after your evening meal every night?
i do, when i was a child, we never had pudding on a regular basis, infact the only time i can recall getting puddings were around the christmas period. my friends (or at least alot of my friends) always had something sweet after their evening meal and i feel it's something i missed out on (not a huge thing but there you go lol).
now i am a mother, and i always give my son something sweet for after he has eaten his evening meal, i feel it gives him something to look forward to after having to eat what he has been given (if he does not eat proper cooked food, he does not get desert!).
how about you guys?

I used to get desert when I was a kid, and it varied. Most of the time we got apple or rhubarb crumble. The only time we had Christmas pudding (I assume that is what you were talking about) was at Christmas. While the boys were young, we had desserts but when they got older, they were not that interested in desserts and neither were we. When we go out, we hardly ever order the desserts.

i know what you mean entirely about getting out of the habbit of eating deserts, before my son came along, i really didn't bother with them as an adult, they aren't that important to me.
and no i didn't mean actual christmas pudding (ew horrid stuff lol) i mean things like jelly, ice cram, crumbles ect, but it was generally only around party time that me and my family had them.

it's a great way to get them to eat, especially if you tell them what they can have when they are finished :)
i don't always go for fattening deserts either, my son loves anything cold (like icepops, they are just flavoured water basically) or home made fruit salads (my son loves most fruits, the more colourful the better!)

I love dessert after dinner but I don't have it each night. Now I'm during a little diet, so I can't eat sweet things, but sometimes, when I'm not during the diet, I like to eat desserts.
