Ok..so i'm trying to eat good until Thanksgiving, but my dh brought home some German Chocolate brownies from Walmart....damn..they are so good! Moist and fudgey...mmmmmm....well, i guess i'll start on Friday

Just thought i'd share in case anyone else needed to ruin their diet

Ahhh I'm on the same boat... I wanted to be good but it's almost impossible, all the goodies everywhere!!!!

ge: COOL AVATAR! ROTFLMAO!!!

I know, I'm making this (I hope) awesome cake for our thanksgiving feast, and I've never made it before, and I SO want to do a trial!!

It is a roll-type cake...sweet potatoe with hazelnuts baked into the top, with cream cheese filling...and whipped cream topping.....YUM! The other is a ginger cake with pear compote filling. Do I DARE bake them early enough for a trial?

You mean people are supposed to eat healthy?

You mean we're not supposed to fry stuff all the time, and use full-fat cream in our coffee, and... ?

Oh...wow. Guess I should get on the wagon, then...

I'm not even wasting my time before the holidays! What I don't eat today, I'll binge on tomorrow! I'll be hitting the gym and diet trend come mid January.....gotta get through the leftovers and all that chocolate!

I agree mdutcher. I am not worried about it I keep telling my mom to hurry up and come to my house so we can do alot of baking. I want to make fudge gingerbread houses and all the cakes I can. Oh and did I say pies and cheesecakes.

brownies??? did someone say brownies??

I just love baking and as soon as November comes I start. I love fudge and my family has there only "special recipe" that has been around since my great great grandmother. I make about 4 batches of that around this time and then I make pies and cheesecake and cakes. Oh yeah cookies. I am the kind of person who likes to "give" out food to my friends and family so of course I have to eat most of it. I was thinking about this year making a small 3d bear for everyone I know for fun just to have some practice. I will probably make a couple for me as well. And get this I just lost 35 pounds since last year and I am down to almost nothing so it wont hurt to gain a couple of pounds back till after New Years. Next year me and my fiance which is more like my husband since we have been living together for 4 years and have a daughter together we are getting married dec. 1st of next year so I wont be able to eat everything I want to next year so I am getting all of it in this year.

over a 130 views ge...but only 8 replies...you better promote those brownies some more and get to bumping yourself!



maybe everyone ran to walmart.....I know I want to!!!!


Do you get all your baked goods at walmart??

I'm having so much trouble sticking to my diet this week. All this traveling is seriously going to make me gain weight I keep bingeing on everything!

Oh well, I can always go back after I return to Missouri...

Hey twinsline7, LOVE your hot potato!!!

Well, if you don't try things, how will you know if anyone will like them? I have to sample everything I make - (unless it's some special order that has something nasty in it that I won't eat! - like prunes or something, blech!)

And now instead of working I shall dream of brownies and count the hours until I get off work and can go to Wal-Mart!

I agree cant wait to go to walmart. I love walmart its my second home.

That's one of the good things about being pregnant, Ladies...I'm gonna be fat anyway so I might as well enjoy it!!

Ive only stuck to my diet for about 2 days ahh I have no self control!! I think I'll give it up during the holidays then start back up in January...at least I'll still have a few months to squeeze into that gown!

Funny....I'm sitting here eating a slim fast bar for supper, drinking a diet coke and reading about all this food...

...and yes, that was my tummy growling....

you guys are so funny! I had a turkey/feta/spinach burger tonight with no BUN!!!

Working on it as hard as I can. Mostly I can stay away from the treats....or can do just a little bit. It is the potato chips that get me!

Did you know you can use a chip for cutlery/shovel/spork??!!

OK two words....cake balls............sin covered in chocolate.............

One word: Somersize!!!

OMG, I KNOW those brownies. Those walmart brownies and I are very very close friends. Try his friends the cream cheese and turtle brownies. I blame about 15lbs of extra "me" on those three fellas. lol
Vanessa

oh no....there are others??? more brownies like this??? I was hoping to contain my addiction to one kind...and maybe wean off of them slowly, but how can i possibly do this knowing there are more out there?? HOW???????

run ge, run away from the brownies they are addicting!

So unfair, we don't have Walmart here and I so want to try those brownies!

Ok gotta add my 2 cents. My mom recently sent me a really gross email. But it is so true. A reason to be FAT It was several pics of sickly thin women. I showed them to my teen son he also wanted to be sick. I am not a thin woman by far but after seeing that pic I LOVE MYSELF EVEN MORE. Hey bakerchick Is this your first child?? Watch that weight alittle. I was addicted to the pan brownies in a box in the 90's . They had the little plastic pan to mix and nuke them in. I would eat a whole batch at one sitting. I also baked homemade apple pies. I gained over 50lbs and never lost it. DS is now almost 16. With DD I only gained an extra 25 lbs and lost it. But still on the plus side of life and lovin it. I still try to eat somewhat on the good side. But I never pass up a good meal. THANKGIVING here I come

No, this is my second. With my first child, I tried to watch what I ate and everything, but with this one I pretty much eat whatever I want. Now dont get me wrong, it's not all junk food all the time. I really like most veggies and salad. And I take my prenatal vitamin religiously. After the baby gets here Im going to start going back to the gym and "eating right" .I figure I may as well enjoy it while I can! Besides I've only gained about 12 lbs so far. I've got a little wiggle room!!
