Dark leafy greens. Cook in cast iron. And raisins, oddly, have a lot of 
iron. I don't know if it's in there to begin with, or if it happens in the 
curing process.

Ooh... that is bad...

Oh god... Pims- the kind with the orange filling. And just about anything 
with chocolate and good quality caramel. Riesen caramels, for instance. Or 
the 'Black & Tan' brownie at McMenamins. And seriously sinful- I discovered 
the hot fudge sauce that you heat in the bottle, in the microwave. Some 
Dulce de Leche ice cream, and my hot fudge sauce, and oh baby!

Of course my sweetie makes really amazing chocolate mousse, but funny 
thing, when he's here, I don't seem as interested in... that sort of 
dessert... ;-D)
