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!

I can't stand wings! I know I know...but yeah they just kind of gross me out. Military Husband loves them.
ReplyDeleteI can get down with fries and a burger tho. And onion rings.
Girl, bye. Just kidding! One day we'll grab a burger, ok? Have a wonderful Tuesday! xo Amanda
DeleteAh! I love all of this. I'm making pumpkin pancakes this morning to celebrate, but now I'm wanting those wings.
ReplyDeleteI could take out some pumpkin pancakes and wings today...Thanks for coming by and so happy your daughter got a great report! xo Amanda
