    Day 4: Had to forgo the sweet treats today. Went out to lunch with some coworkers and don't have room. Does shrimp ravioli count as a cleansing food? Or am I going to gain all my weight plus everyone else's?

    I don't know but it sounds delicious.

    I will allow it. You have to go to the chalkboard and write, "I pledge to always eat premium ice cream and sweets from now on" 100 times though.

    Alright, cool. I was afraid I was going to have to do a Peep enema or something.

    Oh dear Lord . . . the imagery. I can't unsee that.

    Nah, there is no peep enema. Now there is a Sugar Free Gummy Bear enema, but that is the punishment for claiming Arctic Zero or Frozen Bananas taste the same as regular ice cream...

    Day 1: Peeps
    Day 2: Almond pastry (filled with almond paste).
    Day 3: Mission Hill Creamery Ricotta & Fig ice cream.
    Day 4: McConnell's Chocolate Covered Strawberries Ice Cream.

    It isn't actual chocolate covered strawberries, rather, a generous mix of dark chocolate bits and strawberries. The strawberry flavor seemed to almost infuse the sweet cream base (in a good way) and the little bits of chocolate added a nice texture and flavor. At the first bite I had the strongest sense of a childhood flavor or memory, but for the life of me couldn't place it. But excellent ice cream!

    I'm hoping it does...because I'm about to head out with some buddies to celebrate St. Patty's Day, and that's what I intend to use the rest of my calories (and perhaps a few "over") on.

    Lucky for you the master of the cleanse happens to love beer, wine, and tipsy treats.

    Elaine, I heart you and your writing style.

    MrM that banana custard pie looks incredible. Biscuits though? Hmmm.

    Karen, my pie tasted amazing but it was super runny. I also made it with fresh berries (blackberries, raspberries, and blueberries) and I wondered if I might have put too much sugar or something to make it so liquidy on the inside. I'm not sure what went wrong with my dough that made it all melty either. But my friend who doesn't like sweets asked if she could keep some of the leftovers so I guess that's pretty high praise.

    I'm late to the pie tips party, but I always put tapioca in my fruit pies to firm them up. It doesn't give you little pearls, it just firms up the juices.

    Everyone's cleansing looks delicious.

    Mine has been all gelato, all the time.

    I need that dark chocolate popcorn bar. I'll have to head over to Target.
