How is HEB's cookie butter? I've been wanting to wait until a trip to Trader Joe's to pick some up but there's no point in waiting if HEB does it well enough.0

Day 4: Pumpkin french toast
Day 5: Reese's egg (the best of all the Reese's!)
Day 6: Cadbury creme egg (first time I've ever had one if you can believe it. Verdict: way too sweet for me. Weird. Never thought I'd say that)
Day 7: Talenti Banana Chocolate Swirl (first time for that too. Verdict: meh. I really thought I'd like the banana flavor more than I did. It was just kinda weird.)
Day 8: Reese's peanut butter cup
Day 9: Peanut butter cup ice cream
Day 10: Miniature chocolate egg, Reese's peanut butter spread on a shortcake shell with bananas. (Sensing a theme here?)
Day 11: miniature chocolate eggs, Peanut butter cup ice cream again. Totally could eat that every damn day.
Day 12: lame. Toasted french bread with HEB Speculoos Cookie Butter. I need to go grocery shopping.
Day 13: Reese's ice cream. Did not disappoint.
Oh I looked at those last time I was at the store, didn't want to be disappointed... will need to pick them up this weekend0 -

@Cortelli don't you dare sully my reputation by telling people I eat that WF nastiness. I took one bite! One bite! I would have spit it out too if I hadn't been sitting with 9 friends.
So you're saying you eat Walden Farms under the right circumstances, yes? Then I'll make sure to post in those threads that my friend Kruggeri eats WF in certain circumstances and invite them to PM you for details. Thanks for the correction / clarification!
Edit: Actually, rereading your post, I sense some strong emotion, too. So, if you like, I'll go with: my friend Kruggeri eats WF in certain circumstances, and has strong feelings about the products, and invite them to PM you for details.0 -

13. A mini Twix...and then an unexpected surprise at work...Caramel Rice Krispy Treats. OMG. I don't even like Rice Kristy treats much, but these are absolutely amazing!!
14. Caramel Rice Krispy Treat again. I'm in love.
I am trying to picture these -- are they RK treats dipped in / covered in Caramel, or is the caramel blended into the marshmallow mix and part of the binding for the individual RKs? I suspect the later, but am really curious.
The caramel is mixed in with it. You wouldn't know it was caramel by looking at it. There is a recipe on their website, it's probably the same as that. Now I just keep thinking of how good they'd be with chocolate chips and maybe crushed pretzels mixed in...ILiftHeavyAcrylics wrote: »Oooo those cupcakes are pretty. I'm getting ideas.

Lemon. The raspberry chocolate was actually really good. It had raspberry jam inside, and raspberry buttercream frosting. I was a little disappointed in the nutella one I tried, first it was a vanilla base, I thought it should have been chocolate, and I thought there should be nutella cream inside it.
It's from an adorable little bakery - @I_Will_End_You have you been to Pint Size?
I haven't. I drive by there all the time, and think of how cute it is (and named appropriately) but never tried it.

By the way, the cleanse is totally working for me... I've lost at least an inch off my waist and I haven't binged once in a month.0

Day 14: Haagen Dazs Chocolate Caramelized Oat
Ok so . . . I liked this one. I wouldn't kick it out of my freezer. But I doubt I'll buy it again. It didn't really wow me and the calorie count is pretty high (300). It's caramel ice cream (but not really a strong caramel flavor-- I had to look to see what flavor the carton said it was) with chocolate covered oat clusters. I felt like it should have had a chocolate or caramel ribbon for the calorie count.

I'm sooooo behind. Again.
I've been keeping up with the cleanse, just not reporting on here. The last few days I've been eating the Breyer's Tiramisu. It was a bit better as I got down further, and maybe I'm expecting too much of a coffee flavor for Tiramisu anyway (I'm really not very cultured when it comes to sweets!). Anyway, I doubt I'll buy that flavor again.
We've also been enjoying Oreo's (golden and then regular, both double stuff) for the last few days.

Yay for a new (to me) flavor for day 14!!!
Excellent choice! That was also my day 14 flavor (well, what was left of it - which was not much since I had my little gelato disaster yesterday) along with 2 peanut butter cup oreos.
As I was looking for a nice picture of the oreo's I found this - this looks awesome whatever it is (went to the page from the image search - it is a chocolate dipped peanut butter stuffed oreo - I see me making these some day fairly soon). Then I also remembered I had texted the above picture earlier - good thing because if there is more stuff out there like this I am in trouble.
