FACT OF THE DAY: The phrase is "just deserts," not "just desserts." "Deserts" is a noun meaning "that which one deserves," and is no longer used in English except for this particular idiom. This is an example of a fossil word, which only survives in usage thanks to an idiom; other examples include sleight, wreak, and amok.
