    ^Oh my word. That looks amazing.

    Can't figure out why so off center...

    Looks like it's just too big. I use photobucket (:grumble: ) and resize to 500 pixels across.

    I've resized three times, to 480 and 440 and it just still keeps coming out off center. The other pics did too. Grr....

    Did you save it as a new image or replace the old one? If you tell it to replace the old one, it won't actually do it when you link to the photo for several days. This is my biggest gripe about photobucket.

    Ding ding ding - that's it! So strange. I just figured replacing the old one was the way to go so I didn't have two pics in my folder. So in a few days these pics will look right? That's bizarre!

    Beautiful :heart:


    Yeah I usually save the new pic and then I delete the old one. Hassle.

    This whole sizing thing with photobucket was a pain so i started using Imgur. I find it so much easier.

    I agree, imgur is better. But then I'd have to re-upload all my gifs. 35 pages worth. :noway:

    Does anybody remember a Haagen Dazs flavor called "Creme Caramel Pecan"? It was the best ice cream I've ever had and was discontinued about 10 years or so ago.

    But just a few days ago I found out that HD use to sell it overseas as "Pralines and Creams" and that it might be available here in the states under that name. Has anyone seen the P&C flavor of Haagen Dazs anywhere??

    HD prailens and cream is still around. Or you could just go get butter pecan and add a little caramel to it

    What a sweet, sweet revelation! The Butter Pecan isn't the same, even with added caramel, because the pecans in Creme Caramel Pecan/Pralines & Cream are encased in a sweet, praline coating that's amazing.

    Well that explains it! I couldn't figure out why it took so long for my stuff to resize. And yes, that crepe looks amAzing!

    How am I only just now finding this group?!! Gosh I'm behind the times!

    Anyhow, I've found this gem at Shoprite this past weekend:

    raspberry-chokolata-frozen-yogurt.jpg

    And, it is REALLY good! The chocolate is really smooth slivers, but not chips like you find in chocolate chip ice cream. And it's a pretty good amount too. I'm not normally a raspberry ice cream fan, so I was a little worried the flavor of it would be too overpowering with not enough chocolate. That definitely was not the case though. It's a really nice mix of raspberry and chocolate. And the texture is nice as well. Win.

    I love that one, I don't think I've seen it in a while though. I think my favorite is still caramel cone, but I can't really fit HD in my days anymore (until I switch to maintenance).

    I'm going to withhold my review of Steve's Salty Caramel until tomorrow, because the serving I got had almost no caramel in it. Hopefully they'll be more farther down in the pint.

    Haven't had that Turkey Hill frozen yogurt, I seldom eat froyo anyway, but Turkey Hill is a solid brand that is often on sale here. By far my favorite TH flavor is:

    Good grief it was my favorite. Basically their still amazing Dulce de Leche mixed with caramelized pecans. I really hope I can find it under the Pralines & Cream label.

    Ugh. I hate when that happens. We have a local brand here called "White Rose" that makes Moose Track flavor that I really enjoyed. But lately they've changed up the recipe, obviously to cut costs, and the fudge tracks that use to be laced generously all through the 1.5 quart container is mostly clumped in one chunk surrounded by a sea of bland barely-vanilla and far less mini-peanut butter cups.

    I will say that the vanilla base is probably my favorite vanilla base I've had to date, so it's still not a total loss, but I think it would be a lot better if there was actually caramel in it.
