Oooof. First sugar craving just hit

Man, they’re brutal! I don’t usually keep sweets in my place so I settled on some hot apple cider. I figure that’s better than the five-person lava cake in my freezer :rofl: What are some of y’all’s go-tos when the Sugar Monster rears it’s head?

Ice cream is, but the real killer is cookie dough, especially the ones that you just drop on the cookie sheet. Just the right size of evil goodness.

Currently I have half a peach cobbler my sister brought over in the kitchen calling my name… I keep blueberries, raspberries and pineapple chunks on hand for late night cravings. I won’t even keep ice cream in the house anymore. When my kid wants some we go to the parlor… damage control

Funny you mentioned late night. That’s when my sugar cravings are the worst. Issue is, you binge…and wake up feeling like you have a hangover. I now have Atkins peanut butter cups stocked at all times…they taste ok and helps curb the manic sweet tooth.

Oh my gosh this sugar craving really is a thing? My fave is ice cream too, but it seems anything sweet is what I want. I have to get some better sweets in my house!:tired_face:
