So, yes, I have a huge sweet tooth. Pregnancy does not help this at all. Here are my three favorite sugar highs of the summer.
1. The 100 calorie Nutty Bar. - People, this is Delicious. Great snack. Great calorie count. Great taste. It is definitely a 100 calorie treat worth trying. Also, it is yummy because it has the sweet/salty combo with the chocolate and the PB.
2. Groom's Cake Blue Bell Ice Cream - not a 100 calorie treat! Say "I Do" to this delicious indulgence. ( I am so proud of that sentence) It is SO stinking good. Chocolate cake, chocolate ice cream, chocolate, & covered strawberries make up this deliciousness. It is a new Blue Bell flavor and it is really, really, really good.
3. Bagel-fuls - This is a great breakfast treat and snack. It is filling and tastes very fresh. Also, some microwave treats get tough when you heat them, but this one doesn't. Personally I recommend the cherry.
4. Fruit smoothie - Once or twice a week, I try to make a small fresh fruit smoothie. It only takes a second and is really good for you. There is no added sugar or anything like that, but it can have high calories and sugar just because it is fruit. But, I am trying to make sure I get in all sorts of fruits each week and vitamins. All you do is but ice and fruit in the blender. I usually add a little water or low cal fruit juice just to make the blender work better. (Personally the Walmart brand lo-cal white grape juice with peach is great) I always add a small handful of blueberries and usually 3 strawberries. Sometimes I put in a couple of apple slices, peach slices, grapes, or watermelon in. You can also use frozen fruit and there is no need to thaw it. It is a great breakfast treat, very filling, and gets you your servings of fruit.
So, who else has sweet tooths and what do you do to meet it? Thoughts on my choices?

I have to try the bluebell! Oh my! Sounds wonderful. I love all sweets, unfortunately I do not know the word moderation when it comes to them!
We don't have Blue Bell here. :( Can you pack some in dry ice and send it my way? While you're at it, I'd also like a chicken fajita platter from Rosa's and a diet strawberry limeade from Sonic. Thanks in advance, friend!
These days I'm addicted to any ice cream involving peanut butter. We've also been indulging in slurpies lately.
I'm on a waffle kick. All day, all night.
best chocolate bar ever = World Market Dark Chocolate with Sea Salt. If you like the sweet/salty combo, this will send you to the moon.
New discovery - Target brand push-pops in cotton candy flavor. I think the brand is Archer Farms and yeah - cotton candy flavored push pops - you feel like a kid again and it tastes just like cake icing. SOOOO good
