    I bought those Nature Path organic pop tart knock offs today and got some with some Talenti.

    Just yum (but I'm eating at maintenance today).

    The cherry pomegranate (something pomegranate, maybe not cherry) were really good.

    Today I finished off that Safeway blueberry vanilla cheesecake Greek frozen yogurt, had 3 dark chocolate coins, aaaaand.....tonight there will be carrot cake! Today's my son's 19th birthday, and it's the only cake he likes.

    I bought the chocolate ones, I figured it would be easier to eat with ice cream than fruit stuff (I don't like fruit with chocolate).

    So today I had two of the chocolate ones with gelato (one with hazelnut, one with cookie caramel crunch), some brioche with chocolate chips, and a bear claw (which was good, but a bit disappointing as I was expecting something amazing as that place typically has amazing croissants). I guess it's what 10 days of eating under maintenance did to me (and avoiding the brioches my mom brought me). Was worth it though, but it definitely reminded me that it's not worth eating croissants and brioche more than once in a while.

    I think I just drooled on myself. If I have fruit (or like the pumpkin pie Pop Tarts), I have them with vanilla ice cream, but I generally go for chocolate or chocolate peanut butter. My daughter put a whole tray of brioche in my cart once, there were probably 14 in there. Then she wouldn't eat them because she thought they were muffins with sugar on top, so guess who was eating them every day for the next 2 weeks.

    I actually bought a Brioche at Whole Foods too this morning (my mom brought 3 from France and there's only a bit left, the kids ate most of it). Just found out today that mine is selling them. I don't think I'll touch it though (it's one of those things I love but only have once in a while really because it takes 100g to be satisfied and it's 350 calories and you're hungry an hour later). My favorite is still the one from Wegmans though, it has little pieces of half melted sugar in it (like 'cramique' or 'craquelin' in Belgium) and it's like crack, but the small loaf is like 1300 calories and I could easily eat it all.

    Hmmmm, I might have to pay a visit to Wegmans! The ones we got were mini ones, I guess. They were the size of a small muffin, and just around 200 calories, with salt crystals sprinkled on top. That's what she thought was sugar, and so did I until I took a bite!

    Wow salt on brioche is kinda odd.

    Kinda tired of all this salt on dessert trend that is happening at the moment. Salted caramel, no thanks I will have my sugar straight up, thanks very much!

    I've been having those 'waffle waffle' waffles for breakfast. Little bit of buttery and sugary goodness... 360 calories a pop :laugh: (nutritions are 140 calories for 33g. Mine this morning was 85g).

    YUM.

    Speaking of cheesecake, I had half a piece of this yesterday at the Cheesecake Factory... the pecan caramel turtle one. I think it's my new favorite.

    Day 30- It was my birthday, so I had an oreo crème filled and a brownie filled chips ahoy, then banana tempura and like 3 slices of red velvet cake with vanilla frosting.
    Day 31- Devil Dog
    Day 32- 3/4 of a strawberry Pop Tart, a cup of cherry vanilla ice cream and a Sara Lee Brownie Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake. It's really tasty but had I known it was so small, I probably would have gotten something else.
    Day 33- Sara Lee Brownie Chocolate Chip Cake, Oreo creme filled chips ahoy
    Day 34- Sara Lee Brownie Chocolate Chip Cake, 3 Keebler Deluxe Fudge Grahams, and a mix of cookies and cream/espresso frozen yogurt topped with mochi, crushed snicker doodle cookies and oreos.
    Day 35- 3 Keebler Deluxe Fudge Shoppe Grahams and a slice of Pineapple Upside Down Cheesecake from the cheesecake factory. HOLY COW. This was amazing. It was nice and light, and even though it was over 1000 calories, it was well worth it.

    I've been camping so we ate all teh s'mores. Tried the reeses s'mores and it was delicious but I think I prefer the original. I'm kind of a traditionalist when it comes to dessert flavors.

    Is it? I was a first timer, so I didn't know. It was good, though!

    Yesterday I ate everything. I only ate one spread out meal, so I figured what the heck. I had some apple Snickers salad (granny smiths, chopped Snickers and whipped cream), some kind of cookie pie thing with chocolate chips and caramel topped with vanilla ice cream, blueberry cobbler type thing, s'mores bar and a sliver of key lime pie. All small servings (except the apple Snickers thing), because I wanted to try all of it. Today it was 3 dark chocolate coins and Edy's Drumstick.

    I bought a new ice cream to keep at work, Turkey Hill Chunky Peanut Butter. It's goooood! I only had one big spoonful, and I'm going to have a spoonful of Jeni's Sweet Potato with Torched Marshmallow tonight. Yeah, I'm still working through that one slowly! :bigsmile:

    They have a Marshallow Smore cookie too. I'm going to get that one at Wal-Mart today.
