"Eat All The Sweets" - A 30 Day Tale of Love & Happiness

Anyone try the Turkey Hill Sweet Potato ice cream yet?

I haven't found it yet, and I went back to Safeway and looked to see if they still had the butter brickle, and it was all gone!

That makes me so sad they were out of Butter Brickle, I was looking forward to living vicariously through you!

I found the Sweet Potato!!! Weis had Turkey Hill on sale 2/$5, so I got that and the Junior Mint "dairy dessert". I didn't try that one, but I had to try the Sweet Potato. It ain't no Jeni's, but I'm thinking I need to get more while it's still on sale. It was really good. Still no Butter Brickle, but I'll keep looking.

What I really wish is that someone made hazelnut ice cream. I'm so sad...

Day 13 - Hunt's vanilla pudding cup, too many taste tests of homemade buttercream frosting for the cake for my son's birthday party, lemon cream povitica
Day 14 - birthday party day! English walnut povitica, cake, rice krispy treats, Swedish fish, and licorice. Yeah, an overage day for sure.
Day 15 - lemon cream povitica

Day 25 - banana split Dippin Dots ice cream at the zoo, a spoonful of my little guy's vanilla ice cream at Culver's, a chocolate drizzled Rice Krispy Treat, and Nutrigrain chocolate toffee crunch bar

Day 26 - Not much of an appetite for anything today....somehow still have about 700 calories remaining after dinner. I did munch 4 gummy bears earlier, just so I could get the nearly empty package out of the cabinet, and I'm thinking it's a gelato night. Probably Talenti Hazelnut, perhaps with chocolate of one sort or another.

I'm officially out of baked goods. I hope they fix my oven tomorrow because otherwise I'll be going into withdrawals. :sad:

What's wrong with it? I had to replace the bottom element on mine. That was an easy fix. I hope you're back in business soon!

That's all it is. I told them on the phone so they could order the part and everything so I'm hoping they come ready.

What I really wish is that someone made hazelnut ice cream. I'm so sad...

Target carries Talenti Hazelnut gelato.

Mine has a very poor selection of ice cream

Edit: I actually don't even see that flavor on the Talenti website... just toasted almond.

My carton says it's a Target exclusive. It's fantastic stuff, if you can find it.

I bet. I love everything Hazelnut. I'll check tomorrow again, lol.

Actually, toasted almond sounds pretty awesome...

I want to try that one but haven't seen it anywhere yet.

Day 19 2 cornmeal raisin cookies and about 0.5 cookie's worth of dough if you count the beaters and scrapings out of the bowl. Very impressed I didn't just stand by the bowl and spoon more dough into my mouth - the recipe said to make 15, so I made 15!

Sweet baked goods made with cornmeal sound really good... I'm gonna have to try that sometime.

Day 22: Mom's lemon cake with raspberries and whipped cream
Day 23: Angel food cake with sliced strawberries
Day 24: Angel food cake with raspberries
Day 25: Angel food cake with raspberries. Yeah, um, I like dis.

love the berries on angel food w/whipped cream! My go-to is a strawberry, blackberry & blueberry mix, but maybe i'll try raspberries next time.

Oooh, yeah, that sounds good. I like blackberries and raspberries together. We only get good blackberries for a short season here -- most of the time they're either hard and sour, or moldy right off the truck. But when they're good... mmmmmmmmm.

Angel food cake, it's delicious... and I love that I could eat a whole one for breakfast and stay under calories if I wanted to, and still hit my protein macro for the day.

Day 1 - Nothing
Day 2 - Risen candies and starburst candies
Day 3- MORE Risend candies and starburst candies
Day 4 - Starburst candies (The last in the candy dish) plus a Risen - I couldn't resist the temptation any longer
Day 5 - One fourth of a chocolate Easter bunny (I ate his ears today) - In actuality, that should be 1/5 of a chocolate bunny (To be specific it's a Mr. Rockstar with star shaped sprinkles in it), when I was dividing up into portion sizes, I got 5 portions for the total grams it said on serving was.
Day 6 - One fifth of my chocolate bunny - I have his head to enjoy today (that sounds really morbid)
Day 7 - One fifth of my chocolate bunny - Today I had the rest of his ears and a bit of one foot
Day 8 - One fifth of my chocolate bunny - Today I had the rest of his feet and part of his body. I also had a Dare fruit snack. Not all the kids were in Junior church today, so I had to eat the rest on my own.
Day 9 - FIVE Risen caramel candies. I can NOT resist them today! grumble However, considering I have had breakfast and lunch and still have over 600 calories left (not counting my exercise calories), I think it won't matter if I have more, or if something else gets added in.
Day 10 - Three Lindt milk chocolate squares. Yummy.
Day 11- Tim Hortons Boston Cream Doughnut.
Day 12 - One Lindt chocolate square
Day 13 - Two oreos.
Day 14 - A piece of white cake with lemon filling, a king size box of Smarties (I'm Canadian, this is the chocolate type of Smarties) and two Chapman's frozen yogurt Strawberry bars (I was feeling icky last night from eating to much sweets yesterday)
Day 15 - Two homemade M&M cookies. Yummy!
Day 16 - Two Chapman's frozen yogurt bars and 3 Lindt chocolates
Day 17 - Two Chapman's frozen yogurt bars (I need to stop eating 2 a day. The will last me longer if I only eat one a day!)
Day 18 - Bottle of Mountan Dew, Kit Kat Bar, and Chapman's frozen yogurt bar. I went over my calories for today, but I don't care. It was a stressful day and I needed that!
Day 19 - A piece of vanilla cake with lemon filling.
Day 20 - a couple pieces of starburst candy, ice cream bar
Day 21 - Ice cream bar and a chocolate chip cookie
Day 22 - Half of a king size Caramilk bar (So I was already over my calorie count for the day but with no time and no energy to workout....)
Day 23 - About half a box of a king size box of Canadian Smarties
Day 24 - FREE Tim Hortons Boston Cream doughnut. How can you turn down a fee doughnut????
Day 25 - Strawberry Shortcake!!!!

Day 19 2 cornmeal raisin cookies and about 0.5 cookie's worth of dough if you count the beaters and scrapings out of the bowl. Very impressed I didn't just stand by the bowl and spoon more dough into my mouth - the recipe said to make 15, so I made 15!
