I've been fighting with my laptop for the past 45 minutes. It doesn't want to type. It tells me I am holding down the control button, even when I raise both hands above my head and wave a white flag.
What I really don't want to do is get on the phone with tech support people. How long will it take? Will it be under my warranty? If I keep banging around on this thing will it suddenly start working again?
I'm hoping it keeps behaving long enough to make my post. Hey, it's almost midnight.
The tropical crumble, on the other hand, was not a problem at all. It was simple and easy, and turned out to be quite delicious.
I made a few substitutions. I used almonds instead of pecans, and orange zest instead of lime. I added just a little coconut to the topping, and a smidgen of whipped cream at the end. The cream quickly melted, but blended nicely with the fruit anyway.
I've fallen off exercising lately, and finally put in a good 6 miles this evening so I didn't feel too bad about eating this straight from the oven at 10pm. It was too perfect at the park not to enjoy it! I saw a film crew doing scenes for the movie What to Expect When You're Expecting. Chris Rock was the only one I could really recognize or hear.
Thanks to Gaye at Laws of the Kitchen for this week's pick!

Your crisp looks (and sounds!) so yummy! If it were me, I would've stopped my run to sit and watch them filming. :) Go you!
very homey looking dish! great job
I think the single serves look terrific, and are the way to go when I make this again (sans pastry). The coconut sounds like a delicious addition. Thanks for baking with me this week!
I really liked this (subbing pineapple for banana). Mine wasn't the prettiest thing, but the flavors were excellent.
Your crumbles look wonderful in their little ramekins. Coconut is always a welcome addition, in my book.
