Fancy desserts are nice, but something simple and sweet--without the need for seasonal berries or a blowtorch--usually suffices. The Triple-licious Dessert Tasting for Kids doesn't offer gourmet treats, but chocolate-covered Rice Krispies treats, cupcakes, M&M brownies and more should satisfy any sweet tooth 6 to 9 p.m. Thursdays at the Gaylord Texan, 1501 Gaylord Trail in Grapevine. Good luck getting children to stop snickering at "Gaylord" after all that sugar. Cost is $5. Call 817-722-9444 or visit gaylordtexan.com.
Thursdays, 6-9 p.m. Starts: May 21. Continues through Sept. 6, 2009
