Good grief, I get sick and tired of hearing all the low carb hoopla, and I'm even doing the whole low-carb thing. (Which started off very begrudgingly, but I've lost ten pounds and only really have five(ish) more to go, so hey, it's working even when Weight Watchers didn't.) Still, can there be anything more boring than fixating on what has carbs and what doesn't?

Sure.

Unless you wanna talk CHOCOLATE.

I have to have it. You know how moms are typically all self-sacrificing, giving their children the last bite of whatever was delicious to eat because they're moms and moms are such good people? NOT AT MY HOUSE when it comes to chocolate. The kids know to BACK THE HELL AWAY if it's the last bit of chocolate because if they don't, there could be maimage. I'm still holding a grudge against my oldest son from when he was nine and there were warm brownies that his grandmother had made which filled the car on the way home with the most insanely delicious scent in the world, and both boys ate all but the last one, and the last one was MINE MINE ALL MINE until the oldest picked it up fast and licked the whole damned thing. I may forgive him when he's forty. (probably not) It's a good thing I don't know state secrets, because all anyone would have to do is wave chocolate in front of my face and I'd be all, "WHAT DO YOU WANT TO KNOW?"

So when I found this chocolate ice cream I was skeptical. I've tasted diet chocolate before and can there be anything more wrong with the world than a product that says DIET and CHOCOLATE on the same package?

But this stuff?

Amazingly good. Really REALLY good. So those of you who've been beating yourself up on the low-carb thing or the Weight-watchers thing and not having really great chocolate ice cream? Go forth and indulge.

Hey, I do what I can for world peace.

Found you by way of blog explosion. You are too right about chocolate. Jeez, I even steal the urchins' halloween candy. The oldest says he isn't going this year, and I'm trying to talk him into it so I can sneak his candy. Great stuff.
