    I would have picked that one or the one with the sprinkles.

    Did it have anything in the middle?

    Day 18: back on the wagon with a milkshake from Steak & Shake


    Also, I didn't see what the fuss was before about ginormous pictures, but I clicked on this thread and got to see the cupcake picture that @ceoverturf posted in minute detail.

    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 one

    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.

    Damn. That's the second pic I've seen of those Reeses's Oreos. I seriously need to find me some.
    Oh you may regret it - I finished the package in 2 days (and the first day I only had 2 because I had already had a bunch of other stuff). They are SO good.

    Or if you don't want to have the same reaction I did I will lie and tell you they are awful - whichever you prefer.

    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).

    Day 17: blue bunny red carpet red velvet ice creamuw52nhf6h9cb.jpg

    It wasn't until after I ate it that I realized technically it's "light" ice cream...dammit!! (It was still pretty rich). So lest I anger ye cleanse gods and goddesses I ate a couple thin mints too

    I tried this once- it just made me sad. :( but i'm glad you like it- someone should- the idea of red velvet ice cream shouldn't go wasted on anyone.

    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.

    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.
