    What's a dirt cup? I've heard them mentioned a few times.

    Usually it's chocolate pudding with an oreo crumb layer to "simulate" dirt. And hs gummy worms on top. Because worms live in the dirt. :) It's yummy.

    My daughter has these in the cabinet right now:

    Got them at Target in their Easter goodies section.

    Went to a brunch buffet. Ate too much. Everything was delicious. Desserts were apple crisp, rice pudding, blueberry blintzer, cannoli, pound cake and a mini phylo lemon tart, plus French Toast and banana sauce.

    This reminds me of my favorite Baskin Robbins flavor - Peanut Butter and Chocolate. It is far superior to most PB Cup ice creams because there are huge chunks of peanut butter in the ice cream. I never thought to just make it myself!

    Day 14: Steve's Mexican Chili Chocolate Ice Cream
    Day 15: waffle iron cinnamon rolls and Jeni's Whiskey and Pecan ice cream
    Day 16: I almost fell off the cleanse yesterday. I had ambitions of baking, but we were so busy with home renovations, the baking didn't happen. Nor did I get any real exercise in, and most of my calories for the day were blown on Sonic lunch (didn't get any ice cream either because the kids had been monsters at Home Depot and we didn't want to torment them by ordering it for themselves) and then frozen pizza and wine at dinner. We did have homemade pancakes (blueberry and chocolate chips) for breakfast and I grabbed handfuls of mini chocolate chips throughout the day. So that's what I'm counting for Day 16. I will try to do better today/this week.
