But she doesn’t mind rats so much. Valerie Lapinski, former Raven Radio Program Director was a long distance guest castaway on “Deserted Island” on Friday, March 15th 2013. She called in from her home in Brooklyn and describe the process of choosing just 10 songs to have if stranded, possibly forever, as “agonizing.” Well, Val’s pain is our gain, because this is an excellent selection of music…and the dessert is a tantalizing combination of sweet and salty cookie yummy. Beware: the cookies may inspire spontaneous marriage proposals! Here is a recording of the show, a list of Val’s 10 songs and the dessert recipe. more
