Wordless Wednesday

WW is a simple blog post featuring a photo which conveys a message that speaks for itself without using words.

For all the rule breakers, of which I am one, please feel free to add all the words you want.

Make sure you leave a link to your post and I’ll visit your Wordless Wednesday post.

The Fortress Resort and Spa in Galle, Sri Lanka, claims to sell the world’s most expensive dessert at a base price of $14,500 U.S. The Fortress Stilt Fisherman Indulgence — created by special request only — pays homage to stilt fishing, a decades old livelihood that, although dwindling, still is practiced along the country’s coast.

      I couldn’t believe the price tag. It is beautiful though and it honors all those fishermen. I’m a rule breaker too. There is nothing wrong with breaking rules. Just have fun. 🙂

  1. Marie aka Dolly! – USA – Trying to be a really good blogger. I love having friends all over the world. It's so cool & very interesting. I love hugs... they're good for the soul & the heart! So HUGS to all & they'll stay all over my blog for sure. As for as long as you want them!! You need a hug??? COME ON DOWN!!! Stay safe, healthy & happy. God bless you all! Be safe & be healthy & spending more time with loved ones could be trying, so watch your temper & this too I promise you in accordance to my heart you will be rewarded for it! If something bugs you just say you need time out & excuse yourself. Things will be fine after that. I promise. Hugs!..... I promise things will be fine now! Let us pray..... LORD! CAN YOU HEAR ME LORD? I'm sending up a small request. In the name of JESUS..... GOD bless you all from the bottom of my heart!!!! Being disabled wasn't any fun in the beginning, but now that I'm getting all my friends back from all over the world too & new ones too, I wear a smile on my face & I am content & happy once again! God bless you all! Amen... Thanks for the smile! Thanks for hubby's smile too! Now that I have friends I tell him your names and then he looks at me funny & says, "Oh yeah, sure! Riiiiiiiiiight!!!! So what I'm happy with? All of you! I'm just trying to figure out my blog again and Wordpress hates me! It keeps stealing my blog & putting me where it wants me to go & I don't wanna go there~ :( This is my real link: https://newxmasdolly.wordpress.com/?p=140&preview_id=140&preview_nonce=81ba38f99f&preview=true

      Sandee says:

      I have changed your posts to classic editor. I think that would be far easier for you. I want you to try that. You have a great day too, Marie. I love you. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I thought it was unique and very expensive. You have a spatastic week too, Steve. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      You do see the jewel you get with each serving. I’m thinking that’s where the money is. 🙂

  2. Natasha – Writer, fitness enthusiast, nature lover, home diva, spiritual Buddhist with a streak of crazy.
    Natasha says:

    Now that’s quite the revelation. Didn’t know Galle had one of the most expensive desserts.

    Looks fancy but not what I’ll choose, rather afford to choose. Lol!

    Have a lovely week ahead sweetheart. Hugs <3

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I didn’t know it either, but I would love to visit there. You have a lovely week my sweet Natasha. Hugs. 🙂

  3. Wendy& Dani says:

    That is so interesting! Before I read your explanation, I thought it was a work of art, or a cat toy. It’s too bad this dessert will only be eaten by those with money to burn. It does tickle my fancy, though.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I would love to see this dessert in person, but I wouldn’t pay for one even though you get the jewel with it. 🙂

  4. My GBGV Life – Minnesota, USA – I am a GBGV, Grand Basset Griffon Vendeén - enjoying my life and sharing my experiences.
    My GBGV Life says:

    That is an amazing dessert, but way to fancy to even think about eating, especially after paying for it.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I wouldn’t spend this kind of money on a dessert. Even with the jewel they give you. Way to much. Happy WW. Scritches to the furbabes. 🙂

  5. Suzana
    Suzana says:

    The image is nice, but the idea is quite crazy. But I can bet that are people who will pay for it!
    I wonder how safe it is…
    Thank you for this coloured news, Sandee!
    Happy WW and a fine week! Hugs!😘❤️

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I’m sure there are or they wouldn’t have it on the menu. I hope that jewel is worth it. Hugs. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I know I have better uses for my money too. Happy Wednesday, my friend. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      That makes two of us, Alana. A world cruise is a far better way to spend that money. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      That would be a good place for this dessert…Weird Wednesday. Happy rest of the week, Sandra. Scritches to Beau. 🙂

      Sandee says:

      I agree with you. Chocolate is a favorite of mine too. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I love finding stuff like this. Amazing what some folks will spend on a dessert. 🙂

  6. Curious as a Cathy says:

    I’m pretty sure we won’t be ordering seconds of this. lol Good golly is that ever expensive! I betcha it isn’t as good as one might think with that price tag. Thanks for hosting the mid-week fun, Sandee. Have a not-so-Wordless Wednesday, my dear!

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      It’s the jewel that runs the price up. Not so much the dessert. Happy Wednesday, my friend. 🙂

    I can think of many things other than that to spend money on, if I had that to spare. 🙂 Thanks for hosting. Have a great day. XO

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I can as well, Ellen. I’m just fascinated with folks that will spend this much money on a dessert. You have a great day too. Scritches to the kitties. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      That makes two of us. I can’t imagine. Happy remainder of the week and weekend too. Hugs. 🙂

    DrillerAA says:

    If you weren’t wordless before, the tab for this dessert will leave you speechless. So tell me again why it’s worth $14,500. Yep, I thought so. Just bring me a slice of apple pie and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Have a blessed day.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I’ll have the apple pie with vanilla ice cream too, my friend. Have a blessed day. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I know I’d pass on this. Way out of my price range. You have a wonderful rest of the week, Patrick. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      It’s the jewel that runs the price so high. Have a great rest of the week, Yvonne. 🙂

    Quite the photo but not impressed ~ that money could feed a family for quite some time ~

    Lots of hugs and love to you from me and Ziggy ~

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      It sure could. I wouldn’t spend this on a dessert either. So many other ways to spend this kind of money. Love and hugs to you and Ziggy. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I know I wouldn’t have this dessert, but I’d love to see who would order this. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.

      No thanks for me too, Veronica. Way out of my league. Hugs and blessings back. 🙂

    We would love to have a fisherman’s plate, to do all the fishing for us, Sandee…but not at any purrice😸Double Pawkisses for a Happy Week ahead dear Sandee🐾😽💞

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I hear you. Fish is a far better thing for you two than dessert. Double pawkisses back and a hug to Granny. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I loved the history of this dessert. Happy rest of the week. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I think you’re right about that. It’s pretty and I love the history, but the price? Not so much. Hugs. 🙂

    I don’t know what this is exactly, but it has the look of a fish, so I freaked a little bit. My phobia is fish.
    Anyway, hope your Wednesday is going good. <3

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      No this is a dessert with a jewel. The jewel is the expensive part. Happy Wednesday, Barbara. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      It is unique, but way to expensive for my blood. Hugs. 🙂

    Infidel753 says:

    I bet that not one of those traditional stilt fishermen to whom that dessert supposedly pays homage could afford to actually order it. Nor could any normal person. $14,500 is about four times what I spend on food in a whole year. I don’t want to think about what the actual meal before the dessert must cost.

    The post I linked to this time has a video, not a photo, but it is “wordless” in the sense that nobody speaks any words in it, though there is a lot of growling.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I hear you. Way to pricey.

      I don’t care if you break the rules. The rules are just a guideline. I just want you to have fun. I found your video most entertaining. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      It’s the jewel that comes with it that’s so expensive. 🙂

    Okay, so why does it do anonymous for my name at places & not others? hmmm Anyway, I miss you!!! Are you tired of me already? Yeah, you probably are. I’m sorry. I won’t bother you so much anymore. 🙁 Thank you for all your help though. You have lots of friends I see that’s cuz you’re so darn likable/lovable!!! Have a great day my sista!!! HUGS I’ll go see about what you told me and what that is… thanks! It’s a beautiful day and I don’t feel too bad, so we’re going to go for a walk by the park! Later!

    messymimi's meanderings says:

    I followed the link and read about the dessert. It includes an 80-carat aquamarine, i think that accounts for most of the price tag. I wonder if they’d make it for you without that and what they’d charge.

    Anyway, it’s a beautiful dessert but i’m also happy with a vegan chocolate chip cookie, so that will do.

    I hope you and Mr. Zane have a wonderful weekend planned, hugs!

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      It does indeed. You got that, but many didn’t. It is beautiful and a tribute to the fishermen. Have a great rest of the week, you two. Hugs back. 🙂

  20. Jen – Texas – My name is Jennifer, but my friends and family call me Jen. I live in the DFW area here in Texas. ​I am a 49-year-old mom of two not-so-little kids - T (22) and S (19). I have been married to my best friend and soulmate, Fabian, for 23 years. We share our home with three crazy hairballs named Korina, Tabitha, and Tumbledart, and a doggo named Zac. I love reading and started at a young age when first introduced to my mother's stash of Nancy Drew Mysteries. Then I developed an odd fascination for horror and became obsessed with Stephen King during my middle school years. It is still my favorite horror novel. I was in high school when the "romance" book bug took a bite. I read my first historical romance novel, Skye O'Malley, by Bertrice Small, and I never looked back. That was almost 30 years ago. I love history and the Dark Ages of Scotland and Britain, with Tudor England and Regency following close behind. I adore Jane Austen! My passion is still Historical Romance, although I will read just about any genre that strikes my fancy these days. I have been gaming since the days of Atari when I would sit and play Asteroids and Missile Command for hours, after homework, of course! I still recall my father getting our first computer and becoming enveloped in PC gaming with Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves and Oregon Trail. Consoles by Nintendo and the Play Station soon followed, and the rest is history. I introduced my children to gaming at a young age, and we have been gaming and playing together ever since. We mainly play PC games like Minecraft, Wizard101, Pirate101, Toontown Rewritten, and games on Roblox and Steam, but we also play on the Switch and PS4, too. ​ I have been online, in some form or fashion, building a website or sharing my thoughts and musings for quite a few years.

    Almost too pretty to eat and definitely out of my price range for dessert. LOL! Happy Wednesday!! =)

    I would not have guessed that was a dessert unless I read it. No way would I ever pay that much for something I’m going to eat. That’s just crazy

      There is the jewel though. That’s where all the money goes. 🙂

    Whoa…that’s quite the dessert! I’m sure I could get by with a simple chocolate mousse. LOL
