Your style lends itself to allow the participants to have an enjoyable time and at the same time leave with some new and simple ideas and insights. Your story telling struck a cord with me because in the work I do in our organization, the need for this ability is essential. Drawing on simple analogies or your own experiences in life can often times crystallize the abstract for yourself and others."- Charlie Hendershott, Organization Development Specialist, Dofasco Inc.
"The most advantageous thing about the workshop is being able to assist others with how to cope with change. Working in manufacturing obviously means things change quite often; layoffs, downsizing, processes, etc. Guiding people through these changes can be challenging but using the right tools and motivational tactics, I find can not only assist people through change but also, if need be, accelerate the change.

"I would like to again thank you for an excellent workshop on coaching, that you delivered to our International Sales Directors Meeting in Paris, France, last week. The day's workshop started at a basic level and then progressed in such a way as to bring added value to even those more advanced, coaching savvy, country Directors. You very effectively brought some of the developing country Managers up to speed on the concept of coaching and yet still enhanced the coaching skills of the more experienced in the group. Although the room left much to be desired, you never lost the group. You managed to keep a very diverse audience involved in your material and participating in the development of their new-found or somewhat established coaching skills. They certainly left the meeting with a clear and solid path to follow in implementing the skills learned and/or new ideas gained. Jim, as I mentioned in my opening remarks, 'any increase in managerial effectiveness translates directly to the bottom line'. Your coaching skills workshop has definitely increased the managerial effectiveness of our Sales Managers and Directors from around the world. Our shareholders will therefore appreciate your program when our year end results are posted next year. Thanks again for a great program."- George Gilraine, General Manager, Nordisk Pharmaceutical Ltd.
"A very inspiring session!"- Jill Jose, Project Manager, Acontec, Doha, Qatar
"Good background materials to backup points that hammered home the principles being discussed."- John Stuart, Chief Engineer, EnWin Utilities
"Excellent job! Your non-verbal skills accent the passion you have for your works."- Ron Skidmore, Instrumentation Supervisor, Newmont Mining Corporation
"My life has become very focused since your workshop in Orangeville for the Forestry Technicians at Hydro One. I have moved on after reflecting on all of the tragedy in my life in the past year (the loss of a relationship and the death of numerous young, close friends in tragic separate incidents). Even my parents pondering divorce (after 43 years) is not disrupting my focus. I went and spent 4 days with my parents after their announcement, said what I had to say and listened to their points of view. It was sad walking away from the situation, but on the way home I just thought 'this cannot affect where I am supposed to be'. I spoke my thoughts and listened and said to myself. That is all I can do.The chips will have to fall where they may. Prior to your workshop, I would have let it consume me. Thanks for the help."- Mark, Hydro One
"Educational, entertaining - great value for all employees, not just management. Jim is an expert in what he knows and delivers."- Allen Richert, Profressor/Coordinator Business Marketing, Confederation College
"Jim Clemmer's talent in demystifying the complexities of effective management are evident not only in his down-to-earth books but also in his speaking ability. He is dynamic, well organized, uses interesting visual aids and inspires a commitment to action among his audience."- Al Cormier, Executive Vice President, Canadian Urban Transit Association

Celebrate the Jewish New Year HUMANISTICALLY with Kol Hadash
Registration for meaningful secular Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur services is now open. We are happy to announce that Erev Rosh Hashanah service on Wednesday evening, September 24th, will be co-lead by adults and children, with song-leading by Ben Brussell, and apples and honey for all. Erev Yom Kippur service will be held on Friday evening, October 3rd, and will be co-led by our members and guest poet and Judaic scholar Marcia Falk. Kol Nidre and other music will be provided by the San Francisco-Munich Trio (Rebecca Rust, cello; Chris Salocks, piano; and Friedrich Edelmann, bassoon). Song-leading will be provided by Ben Brussell. Pre-registration is required -- download our registration form HERE. Download our poster HERE.
Kol Hadash Family Havurah to start this fall!
All families who are raising Jewish secular humanist children and grandchildren are invited to attend and help develop community. With our rich Jewish culture and shared values, and our wonderful children and grandchildren, we will grow a warm, nurturing and imaginative group for friendship, learning and growth. If you would like to be notified of our first meeting and future meetings, please Email us.
We Kol Hadash humanists claim Judaism as our own.
- Do you appreciate saying what you mean, and meaning what you say at Jewish services?
- Do you appreciate a community where your intermarried and nontraditional family is welcome to belong?
- Is being among like-minded humanists a relief and a pleasure to you?
Then perhaps we are YOUR community too. Are you the one-in-five Jewish Americans who is not a believer, as described in the latest Pew Research Center's study? We are proud to observe Judaism in a manner that makes sense to us. We understand Judaism in the context of human history, and we renew our culture in the context of humanism. Please join us! Check out our services and events on our calendar page, and support us with your membership.
Interested in Humanistic Judaism but don't live close enough to Kol Hadash?
If you join Kol Hadash, we can connect you with members in your area, or help you start a Kol Hadash havurah for members who live near you.
For those of you who live in other areas of Northern California who are interested in starting a humanistic congregation, we encourage you to join the (national) Society for Humanistic Judaism, as you will receive technical assistance and support in nurturing the growth of your new community.

text: It is fall and rainy, wet days are expected. We definitely need an umbrella to keep us sheltered and dry. So in tune with the fall theme, there is the lovely pair of Umbrella shoes. These beautiful white shoes come attached with red and white striped little umbrellas on each shoe. I don't know if they will protect the shoes from all the rain, but they certainly look unique. If footwear is your weakness, you will definitely want to add these to your collection.

The DMX-24-2000S also contains S-PWM patented technology, which increases the visual refresh rate and supports a 16-bit gray scale control on the output channels. Simply put, this decoder allows for higher color resolution and enables high speed iris cameras to seamlessly capture video in real time, without flicker.
This is "the missing link." You may have been looking for this!
What it does, in plain English, is it takes the DMX output from any standard DMX console or controller, and decodes the signal so you can drive 4-wire LED Red-Green-Blue lights. Such as LED wall washers, LED strip lighting or LED Modules.
- Output is 24 channels, typically 8 sets of Red, Green and Blue.
- Converts standard DMX signal to PWM output suitable for driving 5, 12, and 24 VDC LED lighting.
- Channels 1-12 and 13-24 are powered by separate voltage inputs, allowing strands of two different voltages to be addressed simultaneously.
- DIP switches on the side allow you to set the decoder's lowest address so it uses the address you desire from your DMX program. Each decoder has a DMX device address you can set.
- 9 preset test functions - enabled when DIP switch 10 is set ON.
- 3 amp per channel maximum sustained power; 24 channels; 5, 12, or 24 VDC output. Recommended maximum worst-case (all 24 channels on full brightness, sustained) is 3 amp x 12 volts x 24 channels = 864 watts at 12 VDC or 1728 watts at 24 VDC. Use amplifiers for additional power, if necessary.
- 0 to 110°F recommended operating range.
- 2,000 Hz output.
- 1 year warranty.
- Applications
Drives conventional 4-wire Red-Green-Blue LED lighting using DMX signals. This is for any application requiring conversion of DMX to PWM signals for driving LEDs. Provides 8 X 3 = 24 channels of output, suitable for 8 Red-Green-Blue devices or 24 different white channels, for example.
Because the output is high frequency (2,000 Hertz,) and utilizes S-PWM technology, we recommend this fast decoder for any lighting that may be featured on camera.

Please contact Luisa with any questions at lmorenilla [at] hmcpl [dot] org.
This program is part of our "Help Yourself to Health Initiative." Please read more about the initiative below.
Huntsville - Madison County Public Library's "Help Yourself to Health" Initiative
Did you know that people ask more questions about their cell phone plan then they ask their doctor? That's about to change with Huntsville Madison County Library's Help Yourself to Health initiative. This program provides access to valuable health information for the community.
"Health literacy plays a pivotal role in the lives and well being of our community. It's important that the Library is there to provide the information." said Laurel Best, Executive Director of Huntsville Madison County Public Library.
Help Yourself to Health is a year-long project that features special events, educational forums, community outreach programs and access to Medline Plus Health Library, a non commercial information source. All events and forums are free to the public.
"We want to empower people with health knowledge." Rosalind Lett, Associate Director of Public Services at the Huntsville Madison County Public Library, commented on the initiative. "So when people talk to their healthcare professionals they can ask the right questions."
The Help Yourself to Health Initiative has been made possible by a grant from National Library of Medicine.

The Burton Men's AK Guide Gloves protect your hands during big-mountain hucks and hairy resort storms. Waterproof breathable Gore-Tex shells send crappy weather packing, while Primaloft insulation packs warmth around your paws. Neoprene stretch panels and Burton's Pistol Grip pre-curved fit increase dexterity for strapping in, opening your backcountry pack, or adjusting your goggles or helmet.
- Gore-Tex X-Trafit membrane provides guaranteed waterproof breathable, windproof protection
- Heavy duty leather palms grip shovel handles and board surfaces like crazy
- Brushed microfiber linings trap warmth and wick moisture

- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I LOVE THESE GLOVES, THEY ARE THE BEST GLOVES I HAVE EVER OWNED!!! They are thin, warm, comfortable, have great dexterity, and they are GORE-TEX! The leather fits well (and comes with nikwax), and it conforms to my hands so its nice and warm. The Gore-Tex X-Trafit allows for sticky grip when grabbing and great breathability when it gets warm. They are thin as well and surprisingly warm, with the Primaloft. I have owned countless gloves, but these are hands down the best I have ever owned!
Nice gloves

The fit well and keep my hands dry and warm

- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
I have used these gloves for 20+ days, still feels like new.
It does what Burton said it would do, it wicks away moisture(if you have sweaty palms like I do), keeps those digits warm from the icy wind temps, and the Gore-Tex material keeps it rugged and strong.
These gloves also keep your fingers very dexterous. I was able to go in and out of my backpack when out snowboarding, strap into my board and operate a little gopro camera.
GET IT. You wont be disappointed, I sure wasn't.

Just got em in the mail, and they are beefier than ever! I will ride in nothing less than the AK Guide. This is my fourth pair of AK Guides (lost my pair from last year or I would have kept riding them). I tend to run cold, so I appreciate the Primaloft insulation coupled with 3L Goretex and Leather for wind protection and heat retention.
Updates for this year include full back-of-the-hand leather, and an extra layer of leather on the trigger-finger area for protection from your edges.
One thing to note, sizing has gotten bigger. My previous pairs were XLs, which turned out to be too big this year. Larges now fit like XL.
Haven't used this pair yet, but if I come across any glaring defects I'll update my review.
THE BEST period.
Member since
Just purchased these as an encore to my previous AK Guides. They lasted 3 seasons of abuse which is incredibly long for my gloves. The AK Guide features my three necessities in gloves: Goretex, leather and insulation.
The Guides keep your hands bone-dry, and the poly material on the back of the hands allow your hands to breathe unlike all-leather gloves.
I strongly suggest applying the supplied Nikwax to all the leather. Though the Goretex membrane will block water from getting to your hands, if the leather is left untreated it will soak up water, get heavy, and suck warmth out of your hands.
Sizing is standard Burton. I had to get the XLs as I do in every Burton glove.
BEST Gloves out there

Got these gloves for my hubby after my brother used them last year. These are by far the most durable gloves around. The leathers grip is awesome and keeps those digits toasty warm! I highly recommend these for backcountry temps
Lead the pack !

Primoloft's lightweight core structure suspends millions of air particles in a microfiber mesh. these air particles repel water by trapping in heat. Basically its the mother load of warmth and light as a feather.

Great glove!!! First class , As good as it gets except they are not as warm as you think they might be , so be sure to wear some merino wool undergloves on the colder days.

Nice Gloves

Ok so just got these in the mail. Have not ridden with them yet. AS far as fit goes...They do run small. I am a Medium in gloves and got a large and they fit perfect. Super comfy and feel like they are going to be warm. I will post an update after i ride with them but so far I am very pleased with the fit and feel.
Quality glove - worth the price
Alan M
Member since
The burton Guide gloves are everything you'd expect out of a top of the line snowboard glove. The insulation keeps the temperature regulated well, while wicking moisture. The Leather is soft and seems very durable and will probably last a few years of abuse. The gloves come with leather waterproofing for the leather, don't forget to put it on, also buy some from backcountry.com while you're at it. It's less than $10 and will last years.
Just like normal Burton gloves, the fit is small. I normally wear a size Large glove and I fit into the Burton XL's perfectly. If in doubt, go a size up with these.
My hands were a little on the cold side when the temp dipped to -15c. These aren't warm and toasty, but they'll do the job for most conditions.
The gloves fit well under the cuff and are a breeze to take on and off through the day. I ski with 2 kids, so I'm always taking my gloves off to help them.
Hate cold wet hands? Buy this glove!
Eastern Split

If high quality backcountry performance is what you are looking for in a glove than look no further. These gloves are warm and very well constructed. This year they extended the neoprene cuff which is great. Nothing worse than getting snow in your gloves. These were a huge upgrade to the Burton Baker gloves I owned last season which in my opinion were the most useless gloves ever created. I was sad to learn that this will be the last year that FYI Design would be creating the [ak] line for Burton. Hopefully the quality doesn't fall from its current high standard. BTW these gloves have a MSRP of $99 bucks not $114 like listed here. If you want to purchase these, I would suggest emailing the folks at Backcountry and have them correct the issue. If you hate cold, wet hands buy, buy these gloves.

The headline fixation in the fledgling administration of Gov. Mike Pence has been his 10 percent income tax cut. It is what Chief of Staff Bill Smith calls, "the shiny object" and one that Senate Appropriations Chairman Luke Kenley partially restored on Thursday at 3.3 percent after it didn't make the House Republican budget.
The narrative after 80 days is an administration that has groped for a voice and a gravitas on the issues. Pence said at one point, "We have to do a better job of getting our message out."
But after spending several days deep in the gubernatorial warrens on the Statehouse second floor, what emerges is an array of numbers that when pieced together in what is now an incomplete jigsaw puzzle, a different story line emerges.
Pence's nine agenda bills are, for the most part, progressing. There was a staff review of some 2,200 bills that emerged prior to this long session, one the Pence team had just seven weeks to prepare. According to Senior Policy Director Marilee J. Springer, there have been 95 meetings on individual pieces of legislation over eight weeks. There have been 138 meetings between the new governor and legislators.
And among the nine Pence "agenda bills" only one, a bill for treatment of compulsive gambling, is dead. The governor's second priority, SB465 – the Indiana Works Councils – passed the Senate 49-0 and the House 94-0. Most others have passed by wide majorities.
If you want to find animation from Pence, a conversation about his agenda invariably leads to a large chart on an easel just south of his desk. "The thick blue lines are the six goals," Pence said, pointing to the chart. "Those are the six goals of the next four years in this administration. There isn't a week that goes by that we don't meet with our economic development team, meet with our legislative team, and ask, 'Where are we when it comes to increasing private sector employment?'"
"We've been very, very serious about this," Pence continued. "I tell you, there is wisdom in the multitude. As I traveled around the state last year, one of the most responsive lines, in crowds large and small, in cities and small towns, was when I said to people that while this is Indiana's moment, this is the time to go from reform to results."
"From reform to results," Pence repeated after a pause. "Almost every head in the room would be nodding. You got the sense that Hoosiers know we went through a season where there was a lot of course correction, a lot of hard choices made, whether in fiscal reform, economic reform or education reform. But there's a real hunger now for seeing the outcomes and the natural consequences of those bold policies come into effect. That's where we've been, in the policies we've been advancing, all of it is in the outcomes."
And there will be metrics. Employment? It will be measured by the Indiana Business Reseach Center. Improving math and reading skills? ISTEP and IREAD3.
"There will be third-party measurables," Pence promised.
For this new administration, the headline measurable may come down to Gov. Pence's 10 percent income tax cut. "The late Russell Kirk used to say, 'Politics is the art of the possible,'" Pence responded after he was asked whether he'd accept a fraction of that 10 percent. "Look, I was a legislator for 12 years. As we move forward, we are going to continue to advocate strongly for what we think is going to get this economy moving again, get Hoosiers back to work."
"Let me say," Pence continued, "I'm looking for opportunities to find common ground. As these negotiations move forward, I am confident we're going to have productive dialogue, and I am confident in the end we're going to come together and produce the kind of budget that's fiscally responsible, funds our priorities and gives Hoosiers the tax break they deserve."
Reacting to the Senate budget on Thursday, Pence said, "We have been clear about our expectations for this budget: It must be honestly balanced, hold the line on spending, fund our priorities, provide tax relief for working families, small businesses and family farms, and maintain the state's fiscal strength. The budget announced by Senate leadership provides a framework for achieving all of these objectives."
OMB Director Chris Atkins told me the next budget forecast – coming on April 16 – will need to reaffirm last December's forecast. "The budget we put together was based on December's numbers, and we showed that it clearly works," Atkins said.
Pence believes his 12 years in Congress will help him win over the Indiana Legislature. "People often ask me about the difference, what it's like to transition from a legislator to an executive," the governor explained. "I say I hope having been the one will make me better at the other."

Crepe Platform Pump with Flatback Crystals Style ANELSON2 2 2
Beautiful!!! I bought these shoes to wear for my wedding on July 6, 2013. The shoes are more beautiful in person. The color looks a little champagne like in a dull light but once you step outside it is a pretty ivory/cream color. Just what the doctor ordered!!! You can't go wrong with this shoe. The heel is high but I walked on my tile floor in them, danced a little and I still was fine. :) I took a picture of the shoe inside my home and outside. April 17, 2013
Great deal! I'm extremely satisfied with the shoes! They're exactly what I wanted. The pumps look a bit exaggerated but that's what I expected anyway. The color is not as "white/ivory" as it seems on the picture, but rather a warm shade of off-white. I got it shipped to Europe and it arrived exactly 3 days after it was shipped :) Can't wait to walk on them on the big day!! February 6, 2013

Cricket Web's 2013/14 Premier League Tipping Champion
- As featured in The Independent.
"as much a news event as an actual footballer, a worthy stop-start centre forward, but an all-time hyper-galactico when it comes to doing funny things with cars and hats, a player whose signing proves once again that the Premier League is still undoubtedly the best in the world when it comes to doing things with cars and hats."
- Barney Ronay on Mario Balotelli
Everyone wants to change the world, noone wants to change himself.
There's more chance of Nathan Hauritz taking 10 in the match than 330 being racked up tomorrow.

Vimes tells it how it is:
Cant see it happening.
330 is 3.5 runs per over, with the bowlers picked that's going to be a terrific batting performance I think.
It does depend on who gets the runs, if it's Ponting, Clarke, Haddin for Australia is going to be more likely then a Hussey or Katich ton.
NO is my answer.

Import vs Link
We can import or link the external style sheets in our global style sheet, a sub section style sheet could be linked on any specified page where we need to use it or we can choose to import it instead of linking it, it is confusing what we really should use to call an external style sheet.
Placing Comments in CSS
Comments are the text we place in style sheet to help us read the style sheet in future and we do not want the browser to read it or render it, so we place it in special way to hide it from browsers, adding comment is good way to arrange the code and to make some one else understand the code.
Font-Family and Style in CSS
Using the font-family to have backup if browser doesn't support the primary font and styling the font.
Three column fixed website layout
Three column layout for the websites is common now a days most of the blogs uses three column layout which places additional contents side by side to the main contents of the website or it is used to place advertisements or quick links besides the articles. Achieving this layout is easy, you can use this example to create your own three column layout for any website.
Styling iFrames in CSS
iFrames are also known as inline frames and now a days there is no use for such tags but still there may be a condition where you have to use inline frames. CSS allows us to dress the iframe some bit to make it look better. But still it is not a good tag to be used in this generation of websites.
All Caps with CSS
Text-Transform command is used to capitalize the text in any other case to upper case, headers are place where capitalization is frequently used in websites. And to assure that your header is displayed uniformly throughout the site without having to worry about actually writing in all caps, use CSS.
Formatting Text in CSS
Text format and colors makes webpage theme nice and clean, we can keep single theme on whole page or web by utilizing it.
Styling the Table in CSS
Styling the table and cells using CSS, changing the border color applying padding and choosing font color as well as font alignment in the table.
Transparent Image in CSS
How to make image transparent in current and previous versions of browser and creating hover effect with it.
Focus Property in CSS
Changing the style of fields when user interact with them like sign up forms fields which changes the color of back ground when user click to type text in it.
Call an External Style Sheet
Usually we define the styles in separate style sheet with extension of .CSS but to attach them with HTML document we need to call the style sheet using link or import method, both are used for calling the external stylesheet and attach it to HTML document after which HTML document can use it as it is coded in same file.
Odd or Even Rows
CSS3 introduced us several new selectors and arguments one of them is add and even argument which let us define style for even rows or odd rows and we can define both for same tag as well, in result we have to code so much lesser to achieve the style we need.
Different Border style on each side
CSS allow us to place four style on four sides of the border around any element just like the colors.
Reset CSS
if we do not define certain properties in CSS browser applies default values to those properties to avoid such circumstances we use to define the reset.css which is good to start over with CSS styling, by doing so we reset the several properties of dozens of tags, you can download a copy of reset.css here.
Layers on Layer in CSS
Placing layers over layers using z-index, it is useful to overlap layers of image and other elements to make better effects.
Link Box or Vertical Menu
Using CSS anchor styling to style the simple text link and form a vertical menu or the button for form.
Simple CSS Gallery
Developing a simple image gallery with hover effects using CSS, gallery is good to display image as it looks cool and save alot of bandwidth as will.
Outline around the element
Outline can be style just like the border and outline can be used with border to create more better effect.
Change Mouse Cursor in CSS
We can choose cursor to be changed on hovering any kind of element, or prevent changing it on some situations.
CSS syntax for newbies
How to read the CSS for newbies. CSS uses group styling as well as shorthand or nested styling.
Four Colors on Four sides Border
We can choose color for each side of the border to make it look better and customize it as we want in CSS3.
Difference Between ID and CLASS in CSS
Difference between the Class and ID which are custom selectors to define styles but have some restrictions.
Fancy Tables in CSS
Here are some handy CSS tips to create nice and color full table using CSS.
Mouse Cursor Styles in CSS
CSS allows us to change the cursor style on certain events, we can use more than one dozen styles to switch to on hovering.
Adding Quotations using CSS
A very handy tip to add quotations inside another quotation by using lang selector with q selector
Adding Auto Bullets Before Headings
Putting bullets before h1 headings automatically using CSS content property with :before selector
Extracting Attributes of Selectors using CSS
Extracting the attribute from selectors like extracting the anchor's href from text
Pure CSS Horizontal Menu
Pure Horizontal CSS menu with hovering and active menu effect.
Some tricks with First Child property of CSS

Using CSS Selectors

Menu Planning: How Do You Decide on Dessert?
Dessert — the final piece of a meal. The last note that seals a good dinner with a taste of something sweet. That's how I think of it, at least. It's a last grace note for guests to linger over, perhaps followed by a cup of coffee or a digestivo. So I look for desserts that complement the meal that went before them, not too heavy and not too sweet. What about you? How do you decide what to have for dessert? Do you choose a recipe you've been just dying to try? What are the primary considerations for you, when making a dessert?
Like I said above, I always look for something that ties a dessert back in with the rest of the meal. So, for a recent menu of Indian-inspired meatballs, rice, and spinach, I looked for a dessert that was at least inspired by tropical and Indian flavors. I created a quick coconut milk pudding from a little gelatin, honey, and coconut milk, and dropped in slices of banana. It was very light and not too sweet, and a good final note on what was a heavy and spicy meal.
That's just one instance of the way I personally like to plan menus and to fit dessert into the meal.
What about you? How do you plan dessert into your meals?

I plan my desserts seasonally. Fall and winter brings heavy chocolate type deserts, figs, and nuts. Spring and Summer brings light and brightly flavored desserts. Desserts are planned around what fruit is in season at the moment. Lemon curd is kept on hand for emergencies.
I usually base it on what was for dinner. If dinner was super heavy and rich, dessert will be on the lighter side. If dinner was light, then dessert might be a little more indulgent.
I base it on the event. If it's a regular night's dinner - desert (if there is any) is light and quick to make: pudding (instant or baked), a mousse, quick bread/muffins, or baked fruit.
If people are coming, however, it depends on the amount of time I have -- and what I know of them. Recently, I've been making pies. This weekend I hope to try my hand at frozen key lime yogurt.
I usually go by what's in season, too, but mostly because I like to keep dessert as simple as maybe putting out a bowl of fresh fruit and a plate of cookies.
(I'd almost always rather have seconds at dinner than eat dessert; maybe that should be fair warning before coming over to my place for food!)
I'm in between GretaGrace and Bobette. In the summer I stick with whatever fruit is available as the basis for dessert, but it also depends on what dinner was. However, I also have a couple friends who frequently come over for just dessert and a movie, so I use those opportunities to try new recipes.
I usually keep it simple (fruit, cookies), but every now and then there's something special I just have to try. In which case I plan the dinner to lead up to the dessert, not vice versa. If the whole point is to leave room for dessert, after all, that's what I make sure we do!
I look at what's in season, what I made for dinner, what I feel like making or think my guests might especially like. If I'm making a difficult dinner, I'll choose an easier dessert, and vice versa.
Oh boy, I take way too much into account which can make the process a little limiting sometimes ... but I think about seasonality/what's available at the farmers' market, pairing with the theme/ethnicity of the rest of the menu, timing of the stove/oven use, and how heavy the entire menu is. Whew. Worst case scenario, I just make some chocolate cookies or brownies.
I too do the seasonal thing and also take into account what is for dinner. If I'm making something like a cream-based pasta, I'm not going to serve rice pudding for dessert, I'd serve something lighter like roasted fruit. I almost always prefer desserts that are either cake or have fruit in them to chocolatey things, however.
Ummmm, I plan dinner around dessert? Is that bad? ;)
I love seasonal deserts and try to choose something that complements the meal that we just had previously. If it was on the heavy side, I'll choose somethign lighter and vice versa.
I'm with hannaht. I think about what I want to serve for dessert and what serving dishes I'd like to use, then plan backwards. Dessert is the whole reason to eat dinner!
