Pistachio Dessert

I saw this recipe on one of the blogs I read,

and had every intention of making it for St. Patrick's Day.

As you probably guessed, it didn't happen,

so I decided to make it for a family get together

we recently had to celebrate Austin and Bret's birthday.

Ms. Lexx was anxious to help, and we had

fun making the Pistachio Dessert together.

I just love having her there to help.

The dessert is simple to make,

and most people seemed to like it.

Although, if you don't like really sweet desserts,

this might not be the recipe for you.
