thanks for all the suggestions.....since posting this..it doesn't seem to have gone away....but it AT LEAST hasn't been satisfied with candy....other than dark chocolate, which i am happy to see a lot suggested anyway
..and i love dark chocolate ! ....a sea salt and dark chocolate bar sounds very intriguing ......i think the bar i got was ghiradelli ..twilight chocolate..or something like that ? ..it was 70% ..and yummy ! .....the one thing that has always bothered me about darker chocolates is that they aren't as creamy ..but if i let it sit out somewhere a little warm..for just a little while..it is soooo good, i feel like i'm cheating
my problem sweets are never actually in the house unless i get one or two things at a convenience store..but nothing sweet is ever kept in bulk..that would make me go crazy....unfortunately the sweets at the convenience store are of the worst variety....nerds, skittles..pretty much anything fruity
i think the next dark chocolate bar i buy will be one of the ones i saw the other day with a hint of raspberry or orange
the way i've been satisfying it now has been with blended frozen bananas w/ a dab of peanut butter and less than 1/4 cup of vanilla almond milk...i'v made this soooo many times and it is amazing and simple...i have no idea why i didn't think of it before......also blended together some frozen blueberries, peaches and a banana with a bit of honey and froze it til it was a bit more solid
i think these homemade sorbets/soft serves are amazing and even taste better than what you can get in a store....and costs a lot less
thanks for bringing me out of that slump
.....hopefully my husband doesn' start calling to ask if i want anything from the store, or going out at night to the corner store for candy ... D: .....he really should stop that :P
