    OOPs...……….I stepped into the wrong conversation.
    I thought that, …..well...…….that you were giving tips for us guys so I uh,...…..thought I was getting some good information until I pictured wrapping my gal in bacon. Since she's gone pretty much vegetarian for now, the bacon thing will have to wait a while.
    That said, she certainly does like almonds and cheese so...……...

    The best are the fresh ones that are still soft and gooey, and deadly sweet. Once mummified, the flavor goes bye-bye with the texture. I'm very lucky in that it appears someone at one of the farmers-market grows them. The fresh stuff is like $15 a pound (same price as those Aussie candied apricots I used to get at Harry&David), but I can make it last a month.

    The ones that I get are usually quite good, or at least the ones that still have the pits in them.
