Today I bring you my FAT Tuesday list of food that I would go crazy on if I wasn't so crazed by burning excess calories right now! Can I just say that it is true - once you hit the mid thirties your body slows down a bit and it takes harder work to get what you want!?!?!?
Sometimes a girl just wants some chocolate cake.
No. 1 on my Fat Tuesday list is Pound Cake
I love pound cake but only when it has what we in the South refer to as a "sad streak" - that is where the shortening or butter and sugar and vanilla have pooled in a streak across the cake making it "ugly." I will eat that ugly cake ALL.DAY.LONG!
My mom makes great pound cakes as does my Aunt Sue (chocolate, oh lord.)
No. 2 Well obviously brownies!
I love brownies - made with subs, made with fattening goodness, made with nuts, made with icing, I want brownies all the time! Guess what I make brownies once a week on average but that isn't exactly where my blog name came from!
No. 3 I like greasy wings and I cannot lie!
When I was pregnant with my first child all I ever wanted was buffalo wings. I swear my husband was eating more wings than any man could possibly fathom. Nine years later I'm still a wing junkie but not nearly as bad as I was when I was pregnant!
My favorite local wings are at Marco's Pizza in Mocksville, NC. I also LOVE Ronni's in Clemmons, NC!
No. 4 Bad Daddy's Burgers and Sweet Potato Fries or Tots!
Heaven is a Bad Daddy's burger and sweet potato fries. That's all I can say.
And this my friends is why I always make healthy menus! When I want this soul satisfying food it gets me in trouble and gets me in a different dress size (and not the one I want!)
I hope this Fat Tuesday you can enjoy a mouth watering meal or treat. Because it is all healthy and good after today!
Tomorrow join me for a new take on the Lenten Season.
And like I said before - next week I'll be back with my traditional Tasty Tuesday meal idea for you!
