Banana Split Splendor

My hubby was away this weekend and I had really been missing him. So on a cold and lonely Sunday, I decided to send him something to remind him how much he had been missing me too. As we all know, the quickest way to a man's heart is through his stomach. So I conjured up the most scrumptious thing I think of, and covered it in chocolate. I Must be
honest here, I think these are the naughtiest pictures I have ever taken.
