I'm not doing a low-carb diet, I'm doing weight watchers, so 
technically, I could have one. Especially if I used whole wheat flour or 
something in the crust.
But I don't have a family to feed them to, and would find it way too 
difficult to just eat one serving.
And if I added caramel, I'd be *doomed*
--maire, salivating at the thought of pears and cardamom...hmmmm....I 
could just bake some without the crust...hmmm.....
