LOL sorry - I'm amazed I figured out how to post pics from my phone on here. It might take me several more years before I figure out how to resize them first.
@kellyjellybellyjelly - nothing in the middle of that one0 -

Bottom middle both baffles and amuses me. How does one have a birthday cake flavored cupcake? That's not a flavor, it's just what it is. It's like saying you've got a bacon flavored slice of bacon.0 -

Day 18: I had my sweets early today because today was our end of fiscal year (yes, for me fiscal 2016 starts tomorrow - how most of 2016 is in 2015 I will never understand), so our manager brought in pastries - not just Dunkin' Donuts, but real bakery stuff. I had an almond filled pastry - pretty much like a bear claw. I hate my job but I have to say the do have some tasty stuff in the office sometimes. Today is Gus and Stella's birthdays (more cats - we have a lot) so I plan to celebrate with the ice cream I didn't have yesterday too - Steve's Mexican Chili Chocolate (it turned out I had only 4 cupcakes left so I just ate all of them instead - they had been in the freezer at least 3 weeks and were still perfectly good but didn't want to risk much longer). Gus and Stella will be having a bit of ham (Gus is a hamaholic - he needs hamaholics anonymous).

We went out to a local ice cream place last night and I found this gem... cake batter ice cream with caramel swirl and caramel truffles. I was out of calories so I bought a pint, and had some this morning (don't judge). It's pretty good. Maybe not as creamy as I'd like, but I'll still have no problem finishing the pint. They called it 'jumping giraffe'. Will have to make it last though as again, I have no idea what the calories for it are, and I hate that.
That's probably it for the day, I'm just too hungry again. Maybe a piece of chocolate with coffee after lunch and a Yoplait whips though.0 -

I think it was an internal defense mechanism...my brain made me think I liked it after I found out it was light ice cream.
No matter - my kids will polish it off I'm sure. I still have my Talenti.

I ate a pint of pistachio Talenti last weekend... does that count for a few days?
I had a dream about the Caramel Sea Salt one. I think it's a sign.0 -

I've never seen that one. GF is pretty hit or miss for me. They have a couple of flavors that I love. The others have been pretty meh for me.0 -

I used to LOVE bunny tracks. I ate it all the time. I heard they changed the formula and I don't know whether it's true, but I tried some blue bunny recently and was not impressed. Then again, now I'm often unimpressed with things I used to love. MFP has made me into a food snob.0 -

It's pretty good. A decent blueberry/cream, anyway. The "crumble" bits are just meh and don't add much for me, personally.
(oh, and to clarify my previous remarks, I've only been "bad" at logging here in the cleanse. I've been a good Moderation True Believer and been logging in my food diary and making my treats fit.)0 -
And, FFS, there go the photo sizes again.0
