My Sweet Tooth

I have a serious sweet tooth.  Serious.  I decided to take pictures of some of the things that satisfy that craving. Most of these I eat on a fairly regular basis but there are some seasonal sweets I eat once a year.  One thing I love is Halloween pumpkins!  Yep!  I also like candy corn (not with chocolate) but I prefer the pumpkins.  The other seasonal candy I like is jelly beans.  But I only like Brachs spicy jelly beans. I don't like jelly bellies and Harry Potter beans and all the others that have flooded the market.  Most stores sell all the popular ones and it isn't easy to find the ones I like which is just fine.  I had a fairly sucky day today in some ways (after a great morning run) so I indulged myself.  I won't open them yet but it's good to know I have some when needed!

There are many things I didn't take pictures of because I eat them at least somewhat seldom.... whoopie pies and  cake (a particular favorite) to name a couple.

Here is one I eat quite often......Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches.  I like most kinds but truthfully the plain vanilla ones are my favorite.  I like them really frozen, not squishy soft at all.

A new favorite thanks to Christa posting it on Facebook is Green Mountain Creamery Maple Greek Yogurt! It is awesome.  If you read the comments following her posting I think she should be getting a commission because the stores are selling out.  Then she later sugggested putting it in the freezer for 20 minutes first......even better!  I like my cold things really cold and my hot things (coffee) really hot.  When I first bought it I bought 6, three for me and three for my husband.  They disappeared quickly.  This week there are 14 new ones in our fridge.  They won't still be there when I shop next week I am sure.

The next item is also a fairly new find and probably my least favorite of all the items in this post.  But I love anything ice creamish and for now these are doing the trick.  They have a good texture and taste.

This next item satisfies my need for chocolate.  Stick it in the microwave and it is bliss!  Melting chocolate chips surrounded by chocolate! Yum! These are expensive but so far I seem to be willing to shell out the money.  I've looked for a "substitute" with no luck. The maple yogurts are also expensive but so so worth it.  

I know this last item would be cheaper if I wasn't buying single serve packages but I would eat tons then so the single servings work for me. I love yogurt covered pretzels.  My favorite are the vanilla ones but I also like other flavors.  

What can't you resist? Do you have a sweet tooth? Can you bake a batch of cookies and use restraint?  Can you bake a cake and not eat a ridiculous amount?  I have some desserts I make for company that are outstanding but I don't make them for just my husband and me. He can eat a reasonable amount and doesn't even want any some of the time.  I like to bake but I don't any more because I want my clothes to fit!
