Almost too late to take a photo of my cheesecake

We had a few friends around for a simple meal a few days ago. We bought pizzas as it was the easiest way to feed seven when we don’t have much room here. We set up a trestle in the patio which is now screened off from the street. Everyone helped themselves to the pizzas then found a place round the trestle. It worked quite well. I did make an apricot cheesecake as dessert. I had another piece tonight and just managed to stop and take a snap of it after one mouthful. I came very close to eating it before getting a photo. I have to be honest and say Vince decorated the top. I don't enjoy the fiddly bits. Tomorrow we have an hour’s drive to get to the first endurance ride for the season. We’ll be taking photos of the competitors and returning on Saturday afternoon. I'll catch up with you all after that.

I like cheesecake and yours looks delicious. I am waiting that the biscuit cools down, I am preparing a hazelnut Swiss Roll filled with whipped cream.

@JudyEv Also my Swiss Roll has gone, well it's Sunday I will bake something today. I am tempted to make an Italian Rum Babà. It is the one in the picture.

@LadyDuck Oh goodness, that looks really delicious. I would go with a main course and just have two of them.

Poor Vince gets dragooned into all kinds of things. Pretty loves cheesecake but I don't like it. *shrug* I hope you both have a good time. See you later.

@JudyEv I LOVE pecan pie the best of anything. I also like strawberry shortcake but Pretty won't eat it so I've stopped making it. (Too much of a good thing is still too much. )

@oahuwriter I'm sorry your podiatrist passed away. I think I remember you saying that. But it's good that, for the moment, you don't have to go until you feel you need to.

@JudyEv No. I had an infection, which first started me going to my podietrist. Then, doctor w As correcting ingrown toenail. He changed his office hours, that didn't work for me when pandemic hit. I stopped going almost all of last year. Then, I hurt my toe, didn't look good, so I wanted to make a podietrist appointment, but upon checking, his hours online, "permanently closed" is what I found. I found my podietrist passed. Found my new podietrist, she again trying to correct my ingrown toenail. Upon discussion, I decided, since we toes not giving me grief, so upon need to I'll make appointment, now.

I have to admit cheesecake does not last long around our house either. I also prefer mine plain, except when I want blueberries on top, of course. lol

I'm not really fussed about blueberries but I like strawberries. There is some apricot nectar in the cheesecake and the topping has the rest of the nectar.

@JudyEv I don't mind strawberries either. Both are good actually. Not sure I'd like apricot, but who knows? I do occasionally like to get one of those variety cheesecake trays and there are few that I don't like.

Sometimes, if you are hungry and the food looks good, it is easy to forget to.
