But when a low down, rotten, Christian persecuting, martyr-making sinner like Saul does a...

Dinner for French men - a rum baba
Yesterday evening, for reasons that you don't need to worry about, I found myself preparing supper for four of my favourite men. My husband was present (don't get concerned) , along with three other good friends. When deciding on my man's menu, the course that gave me the most thought was dessert. What is a man's dessert?
