Carbs and me - Part 1

Through to my early twenties, I had no real taste for dessert. Even at family gatherings, where the dessert table sagged under the weight of pies and cheesecakes and squares, I was all about the savoury foods, and was often too full to be interested in dessert. And I was skinny. And it was effortless.
