About Bea Viera

Bea is the mother of 7 children. Can't think of a better test kitchen than hers. She has perfected many delicious recipes, some of which she has been kind enough to share with how2heroes. Bea is also somewhat of a prodigy. She paints and plays the piano and guitar beautifully, having had little-to-no training. She is a true Renaissance woman and an inspiration to us all.

    I wish you could all have the opportunity to get Bea to make this for you. She's happy to make whatever dessert you might want. She'll have one dessert in the refrigerator, one hiding in the microwave, one on the counter. Plenty for everybody. But she's MY mother, so unfortunately you'll have to either make this for yourself or get your own mom to do it. It's so-o-o good. (Sep 22, 2009 10:15:28 AM)
